Weaverham didn't get the result they were looking for at Wallerscote road on Saturday when they came up against a strong Lymm side.

Skipper Rob McMillan won the toss and asked the visitors to bat on a damp wicket. Weaverham bowled well and Rob McMillan 3-43 off 12 overs, and new boys Chris Hemmings 2-42 off 16 and James Ollier 2-27 off 10 both made solid debuts. Stalwart Allen Bell also bowled well to pick up 2-16 off 6.4 overs. In fact Lymm should not have reached 100 as a number of catches went down and this proved crucial as the game went on.

Weaverham did not bat well on the day with the only telling contributions coming from New Zealand debutant Gregg Ayres (36) and Jamie Allen who having earlier made an excellent debut as wicket keeper then scored a solid 27. The Weaverham reply then petered out though the home side did manage to hold on for a draw and were then left to rue those dropped catches.
