YORK Ladies won their initial fixture in the Spearman League by beating Elvington Ladies in a tight finish where only three runs separated the sides.
Elvington showed good run-scoring potential but their total was diminished by a couple of soft dismissals which cost a penalty of ten runs each.
By contrast York had only one dismissal but this came in the penultimate over as they were about to overtake their opponents' total.
Elvington turned the screw and York, unable to risk a further dismissal, edged their way home.
