Greenmount firsts rounded off the first half of this summer’s campaign by reaching fifth place in the JWL Lancashire League Premier Division.
On Saturday they defeated lowly Clitheroe by four wickets at the Log Cabin for another ten-point haul.
Clitheroe won the toss and elected to bat and were indebted to an unbroken last wicket stand of 48 between Marcus Sharp (23) and Cole Hayman (23) to reach a total of 196 for 6 that seemed unlikely earlier in their innings.
Their professional Diego Rosier led the way with the bat with 77 before he was adjudged LBW by his countryman Jacques Snyman.
The Mount bowling plaudits went to Amal Dalugoda who opened and took 4-41 from his 15 overs.
Once again, the villagers’ professional Snyman proved in fine form with the bat smashing 109 (fourteen fours and six sixes) with Max Birtwistle hitting 34.
When rain intervened after 29 overs with the Mount on 166 for 6 they were well ahead of their Duckworth-Lewis target of 138 to secure victory.
GREENMOUNT v CLITHEROE SCOREBOARD
On Friday night Snyman was again in devastating form when he hit 134 in the club’s final T20 game at Rawtenstall.
Winning the toss and deciding to bat, Mount scored 228 for 5 with Tom Heaton hitting 50 and skipper Travis Townsend blasting one four and three sixes in his 25.
Snyman’s knock came in 61 balls including nine fours and thirteen sixes.
It was always going to be a bridge too far for the home side whose innings closed on 171 for 6.
Tom Heaton finished with three wickets while there were one each for Callum Hunter, Ishy Patel and Jake Riley.
RAWTENSTALL v GREENMOUNT SCOREBOARD
While the firsts were winning on Saturday afternoon the seconds made the opposite trip to Clitheroe.
Winning the toss and batting first the Mount were all out for 149 with Kieran Edwards (41), skipper Oli Dixon (21) and Nigel Franklin (18) in the runs, albeit aided by 36 extras.
The Clitheroe reply was dominated by opener Jack Dawson who batted through their innings for an unbeaten 75 to see his side over the line at 152 for 9.
Mount skipper Dixon took 5 for 76 from his 12 overs and despite the one-wicket defeat his side picked up five useful bonus points.
CLITHEROE II v GREENMOUNT II SCOREBOARD
On Sunday the thirds made their way to Burnley to face Lowerhouse but went down to a 104-run defeat.
The home side batted first after winning the toss and put on 187 for 7 from their 40 overs.
Dexter Crowther claimed three wickets while there were one each for Rion Dalugoda, Ewan Malone, Tom Clarke and James Herbert.
That total proved too much for the Mount who slid to 83 all out in the 33rd over.
Nigel Franklin top scored with 20 while skipper Mark Crowther and James Herbert scored 17 apiece.
