Jenkins has been a brilliant addition for Northop Hall
Jenkins, who returned to the club ahead of the current campaign, took five wickets in the success against Ainsdale and he now has 57 for the season, at an average of just 11 apiece.
It was Jenkins and James Hurlin who shared all the wickets last time out and skipper Ben Slater said: 'They bowled really well together. It was a great partnership between them both. They got the 10 wickets between them.
'Carwyn (Johnson) and Fin Jenkins put on a 60-odd partnership. It just shows the depth in the squad.
'They could have batted on for a lot longer. It's one of those, you've got to take a positive approach and they ran well.'
Northop Hall Seconds will have home comforts for their meeting with New Brighton Seconds.
There's a return to action for Chirk after they sat out last weekend's matches in the Shropshire League.
A win will be the aim for Chirk, who pay a Division One visit to Newport.
Liam Walker's side could do with a positive outcome, having lost their last four contests.
In Division Seven, Chirk Seconds are at home to Harcourt.

Pears strike late against Hants on rain-affected day
Rothesay County Championship Division One, Visit Worcestershire New Road (day one)Hampshire 146-2: Middleton 79, Weatherley 62Worcestershire: Yet to batHants (0 pts), Worcs (0 pts)Match scorecard Worcestershire struck two late blows after Hampshire's batters had laid a solid foundation on a truncated first day of their County Championship match at Visit Worcestershire New in search of their first championship victory since mid-May, closed on 146 for two having reached 127 without loss before losing openers Fletcha Middleston (79, 101 balls) and Joe Weatherley (62, 130) in a late burst of play in poor were blows badly needed by Worcestershire, bottom of Division One and desperate for a win to sustain their slender hopes of a wet outfield prevented play before lunch, the home side chose to bowl in conditions still damp from morning rain, but the assistance for the seamers they hoped for did not materialise. Pakistan pace spearhead Khurram Shahzad was expensive as Weatherley and Middleton put 50 on the board by the 14th Winchester-born openers were little troubled by a Worcestershire attack bruised by last week's heartbreaking defeat to neighbours Warwickshire. Having dominated the first half of the match at Edgbaston, the Pears suffered a devastating defeat as Warwickshire chased down 393 on the last on home turf, the Worcestershire attack, with Matthew Waite returning from paternity leave in place of Sussex loanee Bertie Foreman, again toiled. Middleton hurried to his half-century from 51 balls and Weatherley followed to his from openers were looking forward to a productive evening session only for the rain to return during the tea interval and prevent play until a late resumption at 6pm. Hampshire's openers ventured back out with little to gain and everything to lose – and the home side took advantage of the murky, moist conditions. Middleton edged Tom Taylor to wicketkeeper Gareth Roderick, who took a superb catch in front of first slip, and Weatherly edged Ben Allison to Ethan Brookes at second wickets were an unwelcome postscript to a hitherto excellent day for Hampshire but they have still set down a solid platform from which to push for a victory that would lift them away from the relegation zone – and pretty much sentence Worcestershire to end the season in it.

It was a fascinating battle on a spin-heavy day between a Glamorgan side starting the round of games second in Division Two, and a Lancashire team looking for a third straight win to get within striking range after belatedly finding red-ball promotion challengers will be hoping to force the first positive result of the season at the ground in red-ball cricket, with the hosts holding the edge. Glamorgan recalled captain Sam Northeast after paternity leave and leg-spinner Mason Crane, for Billy Root and the injured Timm van der Lancashire included seamer Tom Bailey in place of Jack Blatherwick, and handed county caps to Phil Salt and George overcast and damp conditions, the visitors' openers Zain Ul Hassan and Tribe saw off the initial threat, as James Anderson bowled 21 dot balls before conceding, while Tom Bailey got through a probing nine-over took rare consecutive boundaries off Anderson in his second spell, while Ul Hassan shared in a stand of 75 before he was undone by the spin of Green, the tall Australian international bowling into some early footmarks and having him caught behind for fell after lunch lbw to Green for 10 and Tribe's excellent innings came to an end with his first real error of 118 balls faced, slog-sweeping Green to the longer square boundary where Bailey took the and Colin Ingram realised the danger of being pinned down and mounted the occasional counter-attack in a high-quality battle against Green in particular. Carlson reached his 50 off 90 balls just before tea, but shortly after the break Ingram fell for 33 lbw sweeping at Green after a useful partnership of 86. Bailey claimed the day's first seam success when Ben Kellaway was bowled without scoring in a rare failure for the young game really tilted in the hosts' favour with four wickets falling for 30, Carlson's mature knock ended when he edged Green to slip while Chris Cooke, after a slow start, was stumped for six off Harris and Mason Crane dragged Glamorgan to a consolation batting point before Harris (11) missed a slog-sweep off left-arm spinner Tom Hartley, though Crane and Leonard survived under pressure to take the innings into a second day.
