Saturday 10th June 2023.

at a sweltering lune road. for palace shield premier division action. 2nd placed Lancaster vs 4th placed mawdesley, who hail from close to southport and who were promoted last year. in stark contrast to the hosts, who were relegated on the last day of last season. 

 

this is the 2nd tier of cricket in this part of lancashire, with 2 promotion spots up for grabs to the northern league. hosts 10 points behind euxton, with carnforth in 3rd, a further point back in 3rd, and mawdesley in 4th a further 2 points back. game of the day in the shield. 

Lancaster batting first and 5 for no loss after 3 overs. 

lovely picturesque ground with Lancaster castle the glorious backdrop.

result from  lune road,  and an easy 8 wicket romp for mawdesly. 

they skittled lancaster for 101 with the home side committing the cardinal synn of failing to bat out their overs. and knocked off the runs inside 20 overs. no individual scores available due to issues with the play cricket scoring software, which has been a problem for many clubs this season. 

attendance 61 at its highest. and away side move above lancaster into 3rd position at worst, with other results still pending. an impressive effort following promotion last term.
