Peterborough Town shooting for more National T20 glory on Sunday, top-of-the-table clash for Bourne
Peterborough Town hit the National trail on Sunday (August 1) as they contest an Area Final of the ECB Club T20 competition.
Town face an early start against Slough at Wokingham CC (10am). Victory in that will see a final against either Oakham or Smethwick later in the day.
Town were National semi-finalists in 2014, a year after reaching the quarter-finals. They qualified for this season’s National rounds by winning the Northants T20 crown earlier this month when slow bowlers Karanpal Singh and Richard Kendall were key men.
And the city side should venture south in good heart after climbing back to the top of the Northants Premier Division with a convincing win over previous leaders Geddington at Bretton Gate last weekend.
Town will expect to cement top spot with a home win over Overstone Park on Saturday (11am) before heading overnight to Berkshire.
**Lincs Premier Division leaders Bourne travel to pre-season title favourites Grantham, who are second, for a crunch match tomorrow.
