The villagers made 115/7 off their 20 overs thanks largely to an unbeaten 29 from wicketkeeper-batsman Dafydd Bailey while Danny Owens (18) and Danny Oliver (13) both chipped in with useful contributions.
Left-arm seamer Michael Harrison was the star performer with the ball as he decimated the Asian XI top order to finished with miserly figures of 3-12 from his five overs.
Stephen Skates (3-23) also collected three wickets while Lee Rowles (2-23) and Derek Johnson (2-4) both grabbed a brace of victims as the Asian XI were bowled out for 85 in 18.2 overs. Full scorecard here...
