Match of the day in the Readers Lincolnshire ECB Premier League tomorrow (Sat 3rd) should be at the Mayflower Ground, where third plays second.
Boston are just four points behind second placed Bourne and this match is likely to develop into a battle between Jonny Cheer, who is just three short of 700 runs for the season, and bowler Fahad Masood, who is currently equalling the league wickets record.
Cheer and Australian Matt Ward have made a formidable opening pair this season and Boston bowlers Colin Cheer and Tom Baxter are also on form, while Ben Stroud and Charlie Hopkins are putting in good performances for Bourne and this is likely to be a hard fought match.
Bourne are 20 points behind leaders Bracebridge Heath who also face a hard battle against Hartsholme who may be ninth in the table but are only one victory off fifth place and will fight for every point.
At the bottom of the table, Nettleham are at home to sixth placed Louth while 11th placed Skegness are at home to Sleaford who are fourth, well adrift of the top three but under threat from the teams below them.
Grimsby are fifth, one point up on Louth and 11 behind Sleaford, and this weekend entertain Woodhall Spa who could still drop into the relegation zone should Skegness gain an unexpected victory.
And in mid-table, Lindum and Market Deeping, on equal points in seventh and eighth, meet at St Giles Avenue.
