Peter Hazlehurst (left) won the "Man of the Match "
award with remarkable figures of 5 wickets for 4 runs. Hazo has picked
up wickets and scored runs all season but saved his best performance
for this final. |
| Adam Norcott (right) scored 49 not out to lead
Sefton Park to victory. Adam came in at number 3 after the early dismissal
of Andy Battersby. He then had a partnership with Ian Squires and
the only worrying moment came when Sefton Park were 42 for 3 following
Nick Cockrell's run out, but Adam, assisted by Raz Salim, led the
side to victory. This was another fine performance by a player who
has scored runs consistently all season but everyone agreed that on
the day it was a excellent team performance. |
