Stand-in skipper Toby Bulcock took a league best 7-24 to lead Accrington to a first win of the season at The Property Shop Arena. Professional Jacob Clarke also took 3-19 in Accrington's 84 run win over Colne. Ben Gorton again top scored with 66 in Accrington's 134 all out. Colne professional Geeth Kumara took 5-37 and Saud Ahmed picked up 2-14. Matt Clark had opener Stuart Crabtree (4) caught behind by Sam Tillotson with 20 on the board.
