The Odd Case Of Cricket In The Rain

The Saturday Team were rained off again making it 6 lost to the rain on the trot and 7 in total. All of the games in Saturday Div. 3 were cancelled as well, apart from the odd case of Harptree Vrs Avonside which was awarded as a walk over to Avonside because:

“Harptree unable to fulfil the fixture because of bereavement.”

This means that the Cowboys and Stanton Drew have closed the gap and are joint leaders on 32 point with the unfortunate (and it appears very honest) Harptree.

The Sunday 1st Team lost to Stother & Pitt. The Cowboys batted first and hit 153 all out of 39.2 overs. The foe knocked the runs off in 35.1 overs for the loss of 7 wickets.

The Sunday 2nd Team also played but the result has not yet reached this parish.
