Former Brigg Town cricketer Tom Brock was among the wickets for Barton Town 2nds on Saturday (June 19) as the team he is now with, Barton 2nds, won their home game by the amazing margin of 247 runs.
Barton scored a huge 299 for two and then dismissed Horncastle for 52, with Tom taking four for 15.
This game was in Division Three in which Brigg Town are also playing this season.
Brigg are currently eighth in a very large division of 14 teams who will play each other once this season rather than on a home and away basis.
Yesterday (Sunday) saw Broughton and Hibaldstow in action in the Mick Walker North Lindsey Cricket League.
In Knockout Cup Group B, Broughton were bowled out for 71 by Normanby Park who went on to win by seven wickets.
Hibaldstow played Messingham in Group D and posted 185 for five (Lee Robinson scoring 67) but it was not enough as the visitors knocked off the required runs for the loss of only one wicket.
Broughton and Hibaldstow failed to progress to the semi-finals, to be played this Sunday (June 27): Luddington Dons v Normanby Park, Messingham v Scunthorpe Town.
