Galloway Cricket Club’s firsts travelled to Hamilton Palace Sports Grounds to take on newcomers Mearns CC in a Western Prem 3 match on Saturday – and returned with a wonderful victory.
The two teams, bottom and next to bottom of the ladder, met on an absolute scorcher of a day on the well-equipped Hamilton Palace Sports Ground – the only downside being an artificial wicket.
The weather topping 26 degrees meant a reduced overs match of 35 per side, probably beneficial due to the home team’s logistical issues.
