BRIGG TOWN GO TOP OF THE LEAGUE


Brigg Town Cricket Club yesterday regained the leadership of Lincolnshire County Cricket League Division Four (sponsored by Readers).
They did so by winning their home game against third-placed Marshalls on a day when wet weather resulted in many Lincs League games across the five divisions being abandoned.
Batting first at Brocklesby Park, Brigg were bowled out for only 68, of which Dave Baggott contributed 27 in the middle order.
However, Town's bowlers rose to the challenge, dismissing the Gainsborough side for only 53, with Tom Brock and Nick Beacock both taking four wickets.
That result brought Town the maximum 20 points on offer and leaves them four clear of second-placed Lindum 3rds with just two games remaining in the season.
Next Saturday (September 3) Brigg play Old Lincolnians 2nds at Brocklesby Park (1pm start).
