By Ann BoultonThe lower half of the Readers Lincolnshire ECB Premier League table provides the match of the day as Woodhall Spa in 10th entertain Nettleham who are one place below. Only one point separates the two teams so a move away from the bottom two is the prize for the winner.
Slightly higher up, just one point also separates Boston and Skegness – eighth and seventh respectively - who meet at the Mayflower Ground with a place in the top six the possible reward for the victors.
Leaders Bracebridge Heath are away at sixth placed Louth while Market Deeping have a home game against Hartsholme who travel to Outgang Road fresh from their first win of the season.
Deeping have an 18 point lead on third placed Lindum, visitors to London Road to take on bottom side Sleaford whose captain Oliver Burford is recovering well and hopes to be back in the side shortly.
Grimsby, who are two points adrift of Lindum, are the guests at Bourne whose progress up the table suffered a setback last weekend.
Warren Nel’s ton for Hartholme last week took him to the top of the runs table and the South African will undoubtedly be anticipating more runs on the good Deeping pitch.
Nel also has 16 wickets to his credit but Bourne’s Fahad Masood has now reached 25 and Matthew Crowther’s six dismissals for Louth last week put him just one behind Grimsby’s Steve Crossley in the wicketkeeping table.
After last Monday’s washout, a new date is being organised for the Winkworth Cup semi-finals and final which are likely to be held on a Sunday in July.
