• In-form Sam's play it again for league leaders

  By Nottingham Post at 07:30 on 24/05/13

  

  BALDERTON beat second-placed Madni with 11 overs to spare. Madni chose to bat and Farooq Rashid's 86 steered them to 188. But a determined third-wicket partnership between Alan Jackson (48) and overseas Akshu Merrenage (95) saw Balderton move level on points with them and Plumtree at the top. Radcliffe-On-Trent also made up ground after clinically dispatching Notts Unity Casuals (49) by ten wickets. Todd Mills (4-15) ensured no...

• In-form Wilkes hits another big score for Sutton

  By Nottingham Post at 07:30 on 22/05/13

  

  ELLERSLIE II's bowlers must have thought their work was done again after they did a great job bowling out Hickling for just 75 in Star Foundation Division E. However, unlike the opening week, there was no happy ending as the partnership of Michael Playle (4-21) and Yogesh Patel (5-9) combined to bowl out the home side for just 31. Southwell II (87) seem to be struggling and were no match for Beeston & Toton (198), despite four...

• Teenager becomes youngest double centurion to help Kimberley break three league records

  By Nottingham Post at 07:30 on 22/05/13

  

  KIMBERLEY III made a mockery of the grey skies in Division H to break three league records. The astonishing fact was that two of the records had been broken only a fortnight previously. The fun started with 14-year-old Krutarth Dave making a brisk 51. But the honours quite rightly go to 15-year-old Alex Aldred who became the youngest double centurion in the league. He made an incredible unbeaten 219 which included 20 fours and 14...

• Magnificent seven win for Beeston

  By Nottingham Post at 07:30 on 22/05/13

  

  Snooker: A strong Beeston line-up handed out an impressive 7-1 defeat to the Embankment Titans in Division One of the NBSA Tuesday Team League. The opening leg saw Neil Jones and Embankment's Matt Walters draw. But it was all one-way traffic after that for Beeston with Ant McMahon, Clint I'Anson and Andy Spicer recording impressive wins. Newcomers The Towers made it two straight wins with victory over BCI Braves. The Mansfield...

• Twelve of top-100 men named in first cut for Nottingham's Aegon Trophy

  By Nottingham Post at 07:30 on 17/05/13

  

  THERE could be fireworks at the Aegon Trophy at Nottingham Tennis Centre because temperamental Russian Dmitry Tursunov is set to play in the ATP Challenger Tour event. The 30-year-old former world No.20 was memorably thrown out of the last Nottingham Open in 2008. He has also enjoyed some success on the grass courts at the Tennis Centre in Beeston, losing in the final of the doubles in the Open in 2006 and the singles of the Trophy...
