Greenmount’s first team home game against Littleborough fell foul of the rainy weather on Sunday while the seconds went down in the reverse fixture up at Hare Hill.
In a game reduced to 24 overs a side due to the rain, skipper Oli Dixon won the toss and elected to bat but his side only mustered 61 for 5 at the end of their innings in grim conditions.
Littleborough made short work of that, knocking off 64 for 0 for a ten-wicket triumph inside eight overs.
LITTLEBOROUGH II v GREENMOUNT II
It was a different story for the thirds, who grabbed a coupon-busting victory against league leaders Haslingden thirds at Bentgate on Saturday.
Led by stand-in skipper Matthew Gilmore, and without a win all season, the Mount were good value for their ten run triumph.
Haslingden won the toss and put the villagers in and mainly thanks to a fine unbeaten 60 from Tom Clarke ran up 159 for 5 from their reduced 36 overs.
Also in the runs were Rion Dalugoda (27), Stuart Leach (22 not out) and Dixon (17).
Haslingden were bowled out for 149 with four balls remaining. In the wickets for the Mount were Max Birtwistle (3 for 36); Gilmore (3 for 42) with a wicket apiece for Ed Cunnington and Harry Nuttall.
It was a very positive all-round team performance from the thirds with some fine catching and fielding.
