The Panthers elected to bat first upon winning the toss and Archie Macpherson and opening partner Daz Clark put on 48 for the first wicket. Clark fell for a watchful 5.
Macpherson wound back the clock to the 2011/12 season, notching 124 well made runs featuring ramp shots and reverse pull shots.
He was overshadowed by Brendan Parker who hit his first ever 6, and Michael Genockey managing to hit past the inner circle.
The Panthers finished at 6/260. Lewis Read had the most notable figures of 2/30.
The Bulls started strongly to be 1/71 after 14 overs. Read made an enterprising 55, featuring some lusty blows and excellent running between the wickets.
Matt Dunn also made a composed 52, before both were removed by some high-revolution Matthew Birchley offspin. Graham Macrae took a blinding catch to top off a team win for the Panthers, restricting the Bulls to 190. Pick of the bowlers was Bearchley with 3/45.
