Warwickshire Cricket League Results

Last updated : 07 September 2015 By Graham Seal

The Premier Division will go down to the last weekend with Handsworth and Olton and West Warwicks playing each other, and Marston Green 18 points adrift hoping for some strange circumstances to give them the opportunity to overturn an 18 point lead. Handsworth and Olton both obtained 20 point wins on the day. Division 1 will see Studley, Coleshill or Highway as champions. Knowle Village with a 24 point win against Weoley Hill kept their outside hopes of promotion as runner up alive.

In the crunch fixture in division 7 left over from 18yh July and Eid, Ward End Unity did get the better of top placed Copsewood, their 231 for 9 being enough to outplay their opposition, who clung on for the draw to take them to the title 7 down for 177. Continental Star just miss out.

Another to watch next week is Aston Unity 3rd playing Bedworth top with 13 points between the clubs in Division 4. A win for Bedworth and they are champions, a win for Aston Unity they are at least promoted, Marston Green visiting next to bottom Warwick still can take the title.

Aston remain top of Division 2 despite getting no points on the day. Pickwick bowling them out for 54 to win in 12 overs 1 wicket down. Old Eds, closed the gap to 8 points with a winning draw at home to Castle Bromwich.

Division 3 was resolved last week in favour of Moseley Ashfield, Wolvey and Dunlop will now be runners up, Wolvey opening the door by losing to RMCC, whilst Dunlop benefited at the already promoted Ashfield defending 127. Division 5 is a 3 way race between Attock, Collycroft and Pickwick 2nds. Next week Pickwick and Attock meet with Colycroft at 4th placed Moseley, so look out for final day drama in this divisions. Division 6 is so close it is difficult to see who will be promoted still. Lyndworth top can still be caught by Old Eds and Bronze with a rearranged fixture on the 19th may take this to a late finish as mathematically at least they can catch the leaders. As for runners up Standard also remain contenders
