Division C

IN Division C Pool Mills started their season with a fine win over Ben Rhydding who struggled against the accurate bowling of Ray Smith and Patrick Parker. Wickets fell steadily and following the introduction of Matthew Keane Ben Rhydding crumbled with Smith finishing with 4-50 off 25 overs and Keane 4-25 off 13 overs.
