The 2nd XI finally managed to get a home game this year and faced Perth Doo'cot in a top of the table clash, both sides having played 5 and won 5 this year. The 2s continued their fine form, first restricting the visitors to 177-9 and secondly successfully chasing it down with 3 wickets to spare.

The 3rd XI remained unbeaten in Grade 1 salvaging a draw against Inverurie, however with only 179 to chase Sunny Reddy's 57 had put the Dons on course for victory. A flurry of late wickets swung the match back towards Inverurie, however with 18 runs required from the final 3 overs the Dons fancied their chances. The setting sun made viewing difficult for the batsman at one end of the pitch which hampered their chances and they settled for a draw in the end.

The 4th XI suffered defeat in the Reid Cup at the hands of Portcullis. Having posted 142-8, Portcullis chased down the total with 5 wickets in hand.
