Tintwistle 55-2 v Dove Holes 136ao
Rain Affected Draw (10Pts)
Dove travelled to Tintwistle and after the hosts had found a strange sinkhole on the track we had to play on a well used damp track.
Dove batted first and made a good start with openers Dan Gilbride (37) and Dan Jones (27) taking the score to 69 without loss in 11 overs.
Both openers fell in successive overs and further wickets left Dove struggling to post a decent score. Tom Forder, however, hit a useful 38 which allowed Dove to get up to 136.
In reply, the hosts reached 55-2 from 22 overs before rain brought a premature end to the game.
Dove picking up 10 points.
