A Century for Max at Lanercost

Another day, another century, this time for the Dumfries Sunday Development XI at Lanercost where the McBurnie's Removals Player of the Match Max Corbett-Byers hit 139 including six 6s and seventeen 4s. This 36 over-a-side game was also a run-fest as Dumfries set a total of 246 for 4. Adam Malik backed up fellow opener Max with a run-a-ball fifty to reach a retiral.

Likewise, Lanercost were in the runs as a series of batters got scores and peppered the boundary. The best of them was from junior Owen Alban who hit a rapid 71 to take Lanercost up from 97 for 4 to a four wicket win in the penultimate over. Trevor Newport slowed them down with 3 wickets and Matt McBurnie and Mackenzie Sharples each took a wicket aided by some great reaction keeping by Peter Gage.
