TWENTY-20 THIS SUNDAY TO CELEBRATE THE LINCOLNSHIRE LEAGUE'S 50th ANNIVERSARY

A unique Twenty-20 tournament is being staged by the Lincolnshire County Cricket League this weekend to celebrate the competition's 50th anniversary in style.
It will be held on Sunday (June 23) at Cleethorpes Cricket Club's renowned Chichester Road ground.
Play will start at 10am and the organisers are aiming for a 7.30pm to 8pm finish.
Admission is free and the league is hoping that many current, and former, Lincolnshire League players, covering the period from 1963 to the present day, will go along to watch what promises to be a splendid event.
General secretary Andrew Richley (Market Rasen) explained: "The four sides have been selected from nominations from the league's member clubs and represent players from all five divisions of the league across a range of ages and abilities, showcasing the strength in depth that the league has to offer.
"Coloured shirts have been sponsored by a range of companies and Readers are providing pink balls for the day and a bat for the raffle."
Games will be 20 overs a side.
Each team will get to play two matches:
Game 1 - Team One v Team Three
Game 2 - Team Two v Team Four
Game 3 - Loser of Game One v Loser of Game Two
