After losing their last game in Notts to the weather it was vital that the Under
14’s got this game in against Durham. Thanks to the efforts of everyone
involved at Kirkham & Wesham the match started on time. Chris Brownlow tops
cored with 56 and was well supported by Dominoc Morris and Harrison Phelan as
Lancashire posted a good total of 191. Cumbria were never really in the hunt at
all as wickets fell steadily. Michael Jones came on near the end to finish the
match in style with 3 for 3.
Sunday July 15th v LINCOLNSHIRE at Grimsby CC
LANCASHIRE 123
LINCOLNSHIRE 80 (Smith 3-22)
Lancashire won by 43 runs
Back in action after a gap of two weeks the Under 14’s eventually won
comfortably. After winning the toss we elected to bat but found the wicket to be
a problem after weeks of rain. We were bowled out for 123 with an over still
remaining. Our top scorers were James Seward with 24 and Chris Brownlow with 20.
We were confident we had enough and this proved to be the case. Jake Brown took
three wickets and apart from a brave 50 from one Lincolnshire player the game
ended with a good win.

Wednesday July 25th v CHESHIRE at Widnes CC
LANCASHIRE 209 for 4 (Khan 90 Morris 65)
CHESHIRE 121 (Bristol 5-31)

The Under 14’s continued their winning ways with this impressive performance
against Cheshire. Saad Khan (90) and Dominic Morris (65) put on 157 for the
first wicket and then Josh Bristol had impressive figures of 5 for 31 to remove
the heart of the Cheshire batting.
