Captain Daniel Solway lost the toss and was sent into bat on a lively deck but he showed his class in amassing a stoic 75 which provided the Dogs’ backbone.
He was well supported by George Balderson with 33 (including three 4s and one towering 6) and Ryan Felsch with 30.
However, the Dogs’ batsmen didn’t always protect their wicket well enough and rash shots saw their demise at times. Nevertheless, they worked their way to a solid 207 but were all out a few overs short of their 50.
In reply, Penrith worked their way to the required total with the loss of just two wickets, taken by Felsch and Balderson.
Liam Marshall also bowled well and was unlucky not to strike as he beat the bat on numerous occasions. The Panthers won the match just two wickets down for 208 and with a few overs to spare.
