Chadra and Bannan then started to get on top of the Diss bowling, especially Chadra with a flurry of boundaries and for a short time the game started to go in Stow's favour.
However, Simon Cooper got rid of the dangerous Chadra, well caught behind by Diss wicketkeeper Tom Beal for a superb 55.
When Glen Bannan fell with the score on 97, bowled by Chris Cooper for 22, the game turned firmly back in Diss' favour.
Although R Jones with 42 and contributions from his other team mates, Stow were always wanting seven/eight runs an over which was looking a tall order.
The wickets were shared between the Diss bowlers with Rush, the Cooper brothers with two wickets each and Will Dawson with two late wickets and with David Tooke and Chris German taking a wicket each, the Stow score finished on 234, to leave Diss winners by 45 runs.
Diss 279-8 (Dawson 84, Rush 68, S Cooper 50, D Tooke 37), Stow 234 all out (Dawson 2-4, Rush 2-44, C Cooper 2-41, S Cooper 2-50).
