Prestwich defeat Stand in derby
4/ 9/2008
PRESTWICH recorded a six-wicket derby win at ninth-placed Stand on Saturday to go joint fifth of the Lees Brewery Lancashire County League.
But Prestwich’s Hulme Trophy final at Egerton Street was postponed due to bad weather the following day with Denton having made 37 runs for the loss of two wickets from 14 overs having opened the batting.
And Radcliffe and Unsworth were also the victims of abandoned games in the Lake Garage Central Lancashire League.
Neither side had the chance to bat. Radcliffe had limited home side Littleborough to 15-1 at the close of play and Unsworth had restricted home team Heywood to 65-3.
Prestwich skittled Stand for 104 runs on Saturday with Oliver Holt, Phil Kyle and Chris Humphreys taking three wickets for 33 runs, 3-33 and 2-39 respectively.
The top scorers for Stand, who suffered their first home defeat since early May, were Matt Curphey, 42 runs, and Niranjan Kumara, 25.
In reply, good batting from Chris Thomas, 34 runs, Ian Walker, 28, and Steve Lorenzini, 26, helped to steer Prestwich past the victory post.
Carl Sutcliffe, Zahid Javed, Curphey and Chris Holt took one wicket each for Stand.
