Nunholm lost out by 40 runs in a competitive effort against Langloan on Saturday.

Dumfries Cricket Club faced a weekend interrupted with the weather intervening. Despite that two games were completed with juniors Munro and Nairn Cubbon twinning up to share the Croma Vigilant Player of the Match award on Saturday.

Nunholm, Dumfries seconds, played a friendly against Langloan on Saturday after the game was reduced to 25 overs a side and after a rain delay which meant it did not meet league fixture requirements.

Langloan batted first and John Woodhouse claimed the first dismissal with a good ball well caught by keeper Williams. Hyder Hussain comprehensively bowled opener Padana who was intent on adding to his score of 26. Thereafter Khan at number four aimed to hit out and rode his fortune as possible high catches were not taken in the field or fell short.

It was junior Munro Cubbon that broke a substantial partnership when Ronan Dunbar caught Allison on 31 at mid-on. Khan retired on 50 not out. The bowling attack bowled well, with Newport bowling another, but Langloan rattled on to a good score of 185 for 5. Nairn Cubbon followed his brother with a late lbw, each commendably taking a wicket on their 2nd XI debuts and a share of the Croma Vigilant Player of the Match award.

Skipper Jerry Goodin and opener Mat Williams shared a seventy run second wicket partnership for the home side. They took the reply to 94 for one, but under run rate pressure with only ten overs to go, Goodin miscued and was caught for 34. A misjudged run-out, on the second run, of Woodhouse set back hopes of some big overs and Nunholm did well to reach 145 for 5 but for a forty run defeat in a lively friendly. Mat Williams was the side's top scorer with 50 retired.
