East v West Division Four County Final

Luckett v Penzance

FOR the second week running Luckett were at Boconnoc. After the first team last week the second team were there on Saturday to play Penzance in the East v West final of Division Four.

Batting first in a game reduced to 40 overs because of a wet wicket, Penzance made the useful score of 182 all out. Most of these runs were scored by C Nicholls 50, L Devine 25, J Nickolas 25 and A George 25.

All five bowlers used took wickets, Asley Small 3-43, Mark Brown 2-37, Adrian Berry 2-32, Steve Brown 2-37 and Robert Piper 1-29.

In reply Luckett never got on top of the bowlers but, to be fair, the opening pair M Burt, 1-15, and C Nicholls bowled really well, Nicholls taking 1-30. The other wicket takers were D Gibson 2-34 and L Devine, who took out the middle order and took 5-30 of Luckett’s 144. Most of the runs were scored by Adrian Berry, 41, and Asley Small, 32. In the end it was just a game too far for the seconds.
