It was also brilliant to see 13yo Ellis Redden make his debut for the 1st XI, bowling a couple of good overs, fielding superbly and getting off the mark with a lovely drive! Nice to see DK finish his UK stint with a 50 and 2fer as well!

Another close run defeat for 1s brings the season to a close as they frustratingly allowed Spalding to get to 188, skipper @burtoninho147 the pick with 3/13. In reply, DK (59) and @burtoninho147 (27) had a stand of 90 but fell in quick succession as were dismissed for 154

With final fixtures in the division next Saturday, the 2s could finish as high as 4th, as low as 6th, which would be a brilliant achievement for a side playing at this level for the first time in recent memory.

At Paradise Field, captain won an important toss as @Nettleham_CC were asked to bat, dismissed for 91, 3fers from DK, @PaulEdgeller127 and @_JBaker30_. In reply, a few got starts but @PaulEdgeller127 (22*) saw the side home to complete a 4 wicket win!

The Saturday 2s rounded out their season will another quality display v @HeckingtonCC. @Aronjohn93 (116*) and @LukeLukey1099 (61) set up the sides 231/1 before the skipper, 3/23, led the way with the ball also. 2 each also for @callum_john123 and @inverob.

On the road, the 1s put up a determined effort to reach 222, @Cally_Bird and DK both making 35, contributions elsewhere. In reply, @PaulEdgeller127 and Eranda picked up wickets but wasn’t enough against champions elect. Other results meant that relegation was also confirmed!

A historic day for the 2s saw an opening stand of 312 from @Aronjohn93 and Rajan. Rajan making a maiden century (101) but Aron stealing the show with a remarkable 192. In reply, Spalding could only manage 130 with wicket shared, Steven 3/18 the pick.

Sunday 2s travelled to @GrimstonCricket and posted 126 (Luke 38, Howard 26). An early 3fer from Steven made things interesting but hosts got over the line 5 down to set up a thrilling final day in the league!

Brilliant win for the 2s against @OrtonParkcc on Saturday. Visitors set 217/9 with Baz (3/17) and Aarav (2/18) the standouts. In reply, a 2nd wicket stand of 137 between @timbonorris (83) and Dinesh (60) broke the back of the chase as victory was secured inside 34 overs!

1s travelled to @GranthamCC with them restricted to 322/3 (could have been a lot more), spinners DK, JJ and @Cally_Bird taking a wicket. In reply, they battled to 160 with JJ too scoring at the top of the order!

Tough day for the 2s on the road versus a strong @AncasterCC side as they amassed 314/5. In reply there were contributions from @Danbele30 (36), @barneyruble8 (29*) and Thilina (28) but they were bowled out for 147.

A brilliant win against high flying Thornham for the Sunday 2s yesterday saw them post 204/8 having been asked to bat. Paul R with back to back 50s (60) with other contributions from top order. Wickets were shared in the chase as they restricted visitors to 193/7 in a thriller!

A tough loss for the 1s saw them inserted by Bourne in bowling friendly conditions and were duly bustled out for 80. @_JBaker30_ top scored with 26 before he took an early wicket but didn’t spark a collapse as @BourneCC rushed home!

Sunday 2s put up 201/5 in 40 overs with Paul Rushen making an unbeaten 65 but it was Eranda (116) who made a 3rd LSCC 💯 of the year. In reply, @snettishamcc completed a 9 wicket victory in less than 19 overs Aarav the only wicket taker!

In the reverse fixture, 1st XI posted a competitive 256 with 50s from Nathan and @PaulEdgeller127 along with other notable contributions down the order. In response, @burtoninho147 (3/37) and DK (2/29) had Deeping in trouble but an unbroken 9th wicket stand saw them home!

2nd XI picked up another victory as they set @DeepingCC 202 at Paradise Field. Thilina (52) and @barneyruble8 (42) the highlights. In response, Hansana (4/19) and Ed (2/28) set the tone before @Aronjohn93 (3/9) and @inverob (1/22) completed the job, Deeping all out for 89

What a great end to the week @LongSuttonCC squirrels post 236-6 then bowl the hosts out for 166 in the last over. Thanks to our hosts ☀️☀️☀️🏏🍻

Last night, we defeated @MoultonHarroxCC in a close run T20 played in wonderful spirit. The visitors posted 142-3 but in reply, it was @PaulEdgeller127 and @Cally_Bird marshalling the chase as they got home with a couple of overs left!

Great start to the LSCC Cricket Week 2024. Monday saw a win for the Overs v the Unders in the 3rd inter club matchup. A brilliant Parents v Kids evening took place on Tuesday. Today will be Day 3 of our junior camps!

Looking forward to hosting @squirrelscc1931 for the 5th time on Friday. First fixture was 2018, two since then haven’t taken place, 2020 (Covid) and 2023 (Rain).
