Blyth
Cricket CLUB
B
lyth CC won promotion last
season to book their place
in Division Four of the
Bassetlaw and District Cricket League
in 2016. They are led by the team of
Chairman Gareth Jones and President
Brian Rivington and the club has made a
considerable amount of progress under
their guidance.
Over the course of 2015 their first
team put together a record of ten wins,
three draws and three defeats from their
eighteen matches with the other two not
64 Issue 12
reaching a conclusion. This saw them
finish in second place in the table with 275
points on the board.
Glyn Coxhill played a major role in
their success, leading the way with the
bat with 771 runs at an average of nearly
eighty. This included three centuries with
a high score of 166* not out.
He was well supported
by the rest of the
batting line up with
Luke Dymyd and
Andrew
Toft
in
particular
contributing important runs.
Dymyd was also in fine form with
the ball over the course of the season,
taking 32 wickets at an average of less
than fifteen. A number of other bowlers
including Liam Penrose, Glyn Coxhill,
Ryan Stubbins and Jack Parker chipped
in with some important wickets to
create a formidable bowling
attack.
They will have
now turned their
attentions towards
their
2016
campaign
and
making
sure
that they hit the
ground running
in
their
new
surroundings. As
long as they are
able to retain their
current group of
players and perhaps
make one or two quality
additions to the squad they
should have nothing to fear.
