Cornwall League Premier Division
Saturday 26th August 2023
Callington 120-4 from 26.4 overs
Redruth (batted first) 119 all out off 44.1 overs
The rain showers have affected a lot of cricket over recent weeks. This, and being overseas has put the brakes on the 'Bring Your Own Chair' site.
Our Met Office got it wrong today (happens quite a lot). Saturday turned out reasonably dry amidst the odd light shower, I took a gamble and headed off for a Callington revisit. I didn't have the proper camera and hadn't packed the chair. Sadly no pictures to post and plenty of standing up, most of the few seats near the pavilion were naturally taken.
Relegation threatened Redruth struggled with the bat, thanks to a last wicket stand they managed to give Callington a bit of a challenge, but 119 was never going to be enough when the home side has the likes of Wagg & Lindsay at numbers 3 & 4. The home side casually strolled to victory with the odd big 6 chucked in by Mr Wagg.
As mentioned the weather was better than the experts predicted, decent spells of sunshine, it was certainly nice to watch some Cornwall Cricket again.
