All the bowlers bowled well and took wickets with R Koen the pick with 4-13 from 10 overs.
Sutton finished with 79-9 from their 40 overs.
Grainthorpe made a positive start to their reply with D Clark making a rapid 13, when he fell and with the score 17-1, A Smart joined R Boxall for a solid partnership of 38 when Smart was out for 16.
P Burrell then joined Boxall to see Grainthorpe home, with Boxall finishing 24 not out and Grainthorpe had 18 points in the bag.
