CRICKET

An eagerly awaited clash between the two teams that had impressed most early on in the season was, unfortunately, rained out in the afternoon. When the end came, the visitors, Hilton, would have been the happier of the two sides, with Kearsney having lost five wickets for not too many on the board.

The Hilton under-16 A team scored a very big win, but Kearsney’s under-15A side returned the favour, also winning convincingly.
