| Michael Gough and Thara Gunarathne enjoyed a large partnership away at
Richmond to take Hartlepool past 200 for the first time this season.
A magnificent century from Gough provided the base and he was out off the
last ball of the innings with Gunarathne unbeaten. The match was
interrupted a couple of times and Richmondshire knew that they would have
only 24 overs available and a no result draw was likely.
Perhaps Hartlepool entered the 2nd innings with some complacency
believing that Richmond had no chance in the time available.
Dissenayeke soon set about the bowling and took his team to the brink of
victory as Hartlepool's bowling and fielding fell below standard. In
the end 12 points for each side resulted but Hartlepool were given a
fright. With most other matches washed out 12 points were sufficient
to take Hartlepool 1 place up the league. Richmondshire
v Hartlepool Scorecard
Both
matches involving 2nds and 3rds fell foul of the weather with very little
play possible. |
