- Spalding Town remain second in Rutland League Division Six after comfortably seeing off rivals Long Sutton 2nd on Sunday.

James Baker (3-61) and Beth Milnes (3-37) both starred with the ball for Sutton, giving them real hope of victory.
But their reply with the bat never really got going – thanks largely to 4-3 from Alex Want and two wickets apiece from Jonah Gill and Jon Manton.
