Last week saw two difficult games for CCC away to Fenham and at home to Mitford. There is nothing that can be said about the Fenham game at the present time due to ongoing actions with the police and the LMC after an "incident". It appears that CCC have been awarded the win based on the scores at the point when the game was abandoned.
Runaway leaders Mitford cam to Heaton on Wednesday and gave CCC a lesson in unspectacular but organised and effective cricket. A quartet of accurate slow-medium pace bowlers prevented the home side scoring enough runs as 110-6 was posted. Nick, Chris, Matt all scored 20s and Peter 19 not out, but the total was at least 10 short of a competitive one.
Wayward bowling in CCC's first four overs got the visitors off to a fine start so that no fireworks were needed later in the innings. Though Johnson and Mudassar put the brakes on a bit they achieved their target with an over to spare.
CCC (1 point) Nick, Chris, James Carr, Greg, Matt, Peter, Simon E, Mudassar, Ian J, Ian Smithson, Matty
