Following the terrible weather over the last week or so, Ryton managed to start their tie against Coquet on Wednesday 9th July. With Ryton batting first, Peter Moore managed an excellent 59 not out, Graham Rowell demonstrating some massive hitting talent for a worthy 50 not out, and Patrick Fordham scoring a useful 23 - Ryton put on a total of 144 for 1 off 12 '8 ball' overs - despite the falling rain.
With Ryton's innings at an end, and the rain continuing, the two captains decided that no further play was possible - and the game was abandoned before a ball was bowled in the 2nds innings.
So a pretty miserable end to the evenings cricket, once again thanks to the British Summer.
Ryton look forward to the away trip to the Aletasters on Wednesday 16th.
