Peterborough Town gain revenge over Burghley Park in Stamford Shield T20 tie - full results here

Town won an absorbing contest by nine runs after the holders threw away a winning position with some over-aggressive shots.

Burghley were 148-4 with four overs to go chasing 170 all out but Town seamer Bashrat Hussain (4-28) took three wickets in his last two overs to seal victory for his side.

Earlier Pat Harrington’s 35-ball 55 had set Burghley on the way to victory. Town also slumped late in their innings after a rapid start from openers David Clarke (49) and Kyle Medcalf (32). Canny slow bowler Mo Azhar (4-33) did most to check his former club's progress.

Town will now host Newborough in a semi-final on Monday, June 26 when Ufford Park will entertain Market Deeping in the other last four clash.

Deeping beat Bourne by six runs at Outgang Road last night, while Ufford beat Ketton Sports by three wickets in a high scoring game.

Newborough beat City CC by five wickets.

The semi-finals of the Stamford Charity T20 Cup betwen Burghley Park and Barnack, and Bourne and Whittlesey take place next Monday (June 19, 6pm).
