Cornwall Cricket League Division Three East latest round-up

LUCKETT secured an immediate return to the third tier for next season following an action-packed weekend.

On Saturday they visited Roche Seconds and restricted the hosts to 190-6.

Despite getting into some early trouble, Andrew Hoskin (81), Adrian Berry (41) and Dan Pearce (26no) ensured the title.

However they were beaten by three wickets on Sunday against Newquay Seconds.

Ryan Brown (61) and Andrew Hoskin (80) made half centuries in their 247 all out which was surpassed in the 41st over.

Berry’s fine weekend continued with 4-29 from his allocation.

Callington Seconds are second after also playing twice.

On Saturday they won by four wickets at Liskeard after restricting the hosts to 142-7, with thirties from Mohamed Durrani-Zubair (31) and Toby Beresford-Power, while on Monday they lost by 30 runs to visiting Roche.

The Clay Country side made a competitive 191 all out despite 3-50 from Beresford-Power, but never looked like chasing the score down.

They slipped to 111-9 before Spencer Whatley (30no) and Tom Neville (15) made the score more respectable.

Launceston Seconds remain with an outside chance of a potential promotion after a dominant eight-wicket success at Grampound Road Seconds.

Peter West (4-20) and Matt Bloomfield (2-27) tore through the home order, but they fought back, primarily through Tom Gurney (68) and Adam Tythcott (32) to reach 160 all out. David Cox (4-40) worked his way through the tail.

The chase was a comfortable affair as after Finlay Worth made 27, Dan Tilley (40no) and Darren Jenkin (51no) had no real alarms.

Werrington Thirds won by seven wickets at Tideford.

Both sides were far from full strength, but Werrington dismissed the hosts for just 142 with Dan Jenkin taking 3-21.

Cornwall Under 14s player Sam Smeeth guided the chase with 63 not out along with support from Matt Chatfield (34).
