BY ANN BOULTON
League leaders Bourne made the journey to Grimsby more
in hope than anticipation and at noon , the
scheduled start time, things were not looking hopeful.
But umpires and players agreed to wait and at 2.30pm , after much hard work
on the part of the Grimsby
groundsman and both teams’ willingness to help, play began with the overs
reduced from 100 to 64.
But the introduction of Tom Dixon to the attack saw Farmery
caught for 27 and with 16 runs added, Butt followed, having hit 33.
Maninder Singh and skipper Steve Crossley both got into
double figures but Dixon was on good form and went on to take six for 34 as
Grimsby’s 32 overs ended on a total of 125 for seven.
Bourne also started well and had 40 on the board when Bailey
Mawer bowled Pete Morgan for 31. Conrad
Louth came out to join Ben Stroud in a partnership of 43 before Stroud fell to
new signing Matthew Owen for 27 and Owen then bowled incoming batsman Stuart
Airey for a duck.
But this was to be Grimsby ’s last
success as Louth hit 31 and with Carl Wilson (24) took Bourne to a seven wicket
win that increased their lead at the top of the table.
Result: Grimsby 125-7
(Dixon 6-34),
Bourne 126-3; All other games cancelled.
