While Brigg Town were recording their first win of 2022 in Lincolnshire County Cricket League Division Three West yesterday, Broughton 2nds made it through to the final of the Supplementary Cup. Hibaldstow were also in action, in Division Two.
Broughton had home advantage in Saturday's semi-final against Barton Town 2nds and won by the comfortable margin of six wickets.
Brett Fish was only the fifth bowler employed by Broughton but he soon made his mark, taking five wickets at a cost of only 17 runs as the visitors were dismissed for 76 in the 30th over.
After the interval, former Brigg Town bowler Tom Brock managed an early wicket for Barton.
But Broughton eased to victory with Jack Johnstone scoring 21 and Jamie Robinson an unbeaten 19.
The final between Broughton 2nds and Caistor 2nds is due to be played on August 14.
Hibaldstow hosted Division Two leaders Normanby Park yesterday and were well beaten.
They faced an uphill struggle after Park had rattled up 243 for eight in 45 overs, and replied with 143 all-out.
Hibaldstow's Josh Cowling took two for 35 from his permitted nine overs, and Lee Robinson went on to top score with 65.
Our local villagers are mid-table with three wins and three defeats so far.
Broughton's first teamers were without a Division One fixture yesterday.
