In a high scoring game Bulls won the toss and elected to bat.
Nick Donker (82) and M. Dunn (78 not out) were the big hitters as the Bulls set an imposing target finishing with 5/226 off their allotted 40 overs.
Starring with the ball were Luke Graefe 2-47, Birchley with 1-26 and Gnochi with 1-50.
Panthers needed someone to star with the bat and A. McPherson proved just the ticket.
The opener hit five sixes falling just short of a ton making a splendid 95 from just 93 balls.
He was ably supported by B. Parker who made 45 in another run-a-ball performance and Luke Graefe who smashed 34 runs (not out) off just 15 balls.
Panthers reached the target in the 37th over, finishing 5/228. Best bowlers were Scott Kyle 2-43, Lewis Read 1-27, W Hall, 1-30 and T. Dinaline 1-57.
