Devon Cricket Board - Brixham up

Brixham up - now for the title

BRIXHAM will be going for the A Division championship this Saturday when Cornwood visit Boundary Park.
Both sides are already assured of promotion to the Premier Division as neither can be caught by third-placed Budleigh Salterton.
It couldn’t be closer at the top of the table as both sides have won 14 times in 17 starts.
Brixham have a five-point lead at the top, which Cornwood can overturn if they win.
If Brixham play as well as they did in the eight-wicket win at relegated Bideford, they are going to take some stopping.
Bideford were all out for 111 in the 38^th of their overs – Paul Heard and Fred King making a joint top score of 25 each.
Heard slowed the side after Bideford slumped to 31 for four, then King hauled them round a second time after another collapse to 81 for eight.
Craig Eaves (2-32), Matt McGillivray (2-11) and Mark Orchard (2-22) made the early breakthroughs, leaving Stuart Edgar (3-12) to clean up the remnants.
Brixham didn’t hang around knocking off the runs, starting with a 56-run stand between openers Edgar (63) and Tim Robinson (13).
McGillivray (33no) and Edgar got the target down to three two win before Mike Lemmings (2-36) broke the stand.
Skipper Andy Pugh didn’t have to face a ball as Edgar took care of the three runs needed to seal a win inside 18 overs.
