BY ANN BOULTON
May 4
Spalding
scored their first win the Readers
Lincolnshire ECB Premier League – and this result knocked Bracebridge Heath off
the top spot.
And with joint leaders Skegness also losing at home to
Woodhall Spa, Louth took the opportunity to move into first place after coming
out on the right side of a draw at Sleaford in the highest scoring game of the
day.
Arran Brindle hit 59 and Azeem Ghumann scored the second
century of the league season with 103 to help the visitors to 282 for
seven. But Sleaford were also in run
scoring mode, Oliver Burford making 60 before the overs ran out with the total
on 246 for eight.
Richard Genge took five wickets for Hartsholme but Clewett
went one better with six for 18 as Hartsholme were all out for 118 to leave
them bottom of the table after three games.
Lindum stay just above Hartsholme despite a winning draw at
Bourne. Karanjit Bansal made 66 and
Charlie Tomlinson 55 as Lindum reached 208 for three but Ben Stroud’s 50 pushed
Bourne’s score along and at the close the home side were 175 for six.
Matt Sergeant was the mainstay of Woodhall’s win over former
joint leaders Skegness, who are now third.
Sergeant’s unbeaten 79 saw his side to 218 for eight and Sathpath Kelum
then took five wickets as the seasiders were all out for 150.
Campbell Light was the architect of Spalding’s win, his seven
for 70 helping to bowl Bracebridge out for 118, Nick John making 61.
Bracebridge reached 95 for one before wickets began to tumble
and Spalding also saw their innings collapse from 40 without loss to 68 for
four before Light’s innings of 42 got them within sight of victory and new signing
Ian Smith saw them home by four wickets.
Market Deeping went fifth after victory over champions Haxey
who were all out for 131, Kamran Raza taking five for 38, Deeping then lost four wickets before
reaching their target.
