Weekend Review - 10/11 May
A successful weekend in the sun for the senior teams, with 4 wins, a winning draw and a losing draw.
The 1st XI came away with maximum 27 points on Saturday with a 51 run win at Swarkestone but had to settle for a hard fought losing draw at Staveley on Sunday. The 2nd XI made it 3 straight wins with home victories over Swanwick (by 70 runs) and Ilkeston (by 7 wickets). The 3rd XI picked up a winning draw against Belper Meadows on Saturday and followed up with an excellent win against a strong Codnor side (by 6 wickets) on Sunday. The 4th XI recorded their first win of the season, albeit thanks to South Wingfield forfeiting the match.
Full scorecards are available online in the results section.
