Nassington beat the area’s leading Twenty/20 side in a Stamford Charity Cup semi-final last week (June 12) and they’ve since been boosted by the arrival of Sri Lankan import Mohomad Shifran Muthaliph.

Bourne will start strong favourites on their own Abbey Lawns surface even without in-form Sam Evison who is away on his minor counties debut with Lincolnshire.
