By Glen Sands, reporting on Cherry Willingham v Outcasts, Lincs div one
Outcasts' response saw Andy Lawson produce his best batting performance of the season as he attacked the home side's bowling with some outstanding shots. He scored 62 of the Isle sides first 72 runs, hitting five 6s and five 4s in what was as good a display of clean hitting as you could wish to see.
Yet when he was out, caught by wicketkeeper Jon Drabble, off Matt Spikings when the ball actually stuck in the grill of his helmet, batting appeared to become a far tougher prospect...
There's more of that match in the Scunthorpe Telegraph, Grimsby Telegraph and Lincolnshire Echo this week.
