Bolton-by-Bowland v Rathmell
Away, Sunday 1st August

Rathmell beat BBB in tense finish.

GIGGLESWICK (BBB won toss): BBB beat Rathmell beat BBB by 2 wkts.

Under the dome at Giggleswick school Rathmell beat BBB in a close game. Mick Smalley and John Hunt both scored 50’s on a good track but then the run rate slowed when the Rathmell captain, J Snowdon, bowled out his last 4 overs for 13 runs. He was supported by the rest of his team’s fine fielding. After probably the best away tea of the year Martin Brown struck in his first over building hope for a Bolton victory. However, Harrison and Andrews had different ideas and put on 80 for the second wicket. Snowdon built on this with a fine 46 not out to give Rathmell victory. Spencer Ashton, of Gisburn School, made his debut but still the average age remained stubbornly high!!
