A patched up third team lost to Shirebrook on Sunday. After losing several key batsman to the first team, an young experienced outfit struggled to gain momentum in the innings mustering just 101 for 9 in the full allocation of 40 overs, with the away side knockering them off for the loss of 3 wickets with 15 overs to spare.
