Worsley CC first XI completed a remarkable unbeaten league season with a 38-run victory over Radcliffe.
Having already lifted the John Barrow Trophy in August, the first XI completed a league and cup double in style despite being skittled for 85.
In-form Srinivas Valluru top-scored for the visitors with 25 as the league winners were all out in the 28th over, Ashu Ashraf taking 5-12.
But Worsley showed why they have been such a dominant force this season as Tom Rawding blasted through the Radcliffe top order.
The left-arm quick took 7-22 from nine overs as Radcliffe were all out for just 47 with Adam Harris (1-25) and skipper James Kilner (1-0) also in the wickets.
The success was the first XI's 18th victory in the league campaign with their other four fixtures all abandoned.
They finished on 105 points, 26 points better off than second-placed Bolton Deane and Derby CC in GMCL Division 3.
Worsley 85 (S Valluru 25, R Ulhaq 19)
Radcliffe 47 (T Rawding 7-22, J Kilner 1-0)
