Singh moves Swaine nearer to title

A CENTURY from Sarjinder Singh moved Hoylandswaine ever closer to the Drakes Premiership title. His knock of 113 at Thongsbridge proved crucial in ensuring victory in a high-scoring contest.

Hoylandswaine set 268-7, but Thongsbridge pushed hard to match their visitors with Alex Kemp’s 85 firing them up, only for their innings to be ended with 235 on the board.

Delph & Dobcross look set to end the season as runners-up after they took six points from Moorlands, once second in the table, who dropped back to fourth after the defeat. Home side Moorlands were ousted for just 70 and Delph cruised to a nine-wicket success.

Huddersfield’s final group match in the Joe Lumb competition away to Aire-Wharfe at Horsforth Cricket Club was called off due to a waterlogged ground. It leaves Huddersfield waiting to see where they finish in the table, with the result of Barnsley’s away trip to Bradford being crucial.
