Both men departed in quick succession, but Andrew Hoskin (32), James Wilkinson (36) and Jonny Hoskin (21no) helped them reach 246-8.
A superb start with the ball saw Bude slip to 87-4 after 23 overs with Leion Cole (3-39) delivering a fine spell.

The Trees ended on 153-5 from their 30 overs when the rain came in, Jacob Eldridge (3-39) doing the early damage including the key wickets of Jack Greening and Matt Shepherd.
