Llandudno made to work for victory


Llandudno remain on top of the North Wales Premier Division but were made to work for their two wicket victory at Denbigh.
The hosts, batting first, posted 136 with Harrison Jones producing an unbeaten half century (56). Jack Rimmington was the pick of the bowlers claiming 3-35.
Llandudno gave chase and looked to be in serious trouble at 80-8, but a ninth wicket stand between Luke Regan 31n/o and Rimmington 22n/o steered them home.
Mochdre are snapping at the heels of the leaders thanks to a comprehensive six wicket win at Llay Welfare.
Llay elected to bat and declared on 179-9 in the 46th over, with Jamie Beal striking a splendid 88, while John Lloyd fell just short of a half century. The Mochdre attack was in formidable form with Adam Campion claiming 4-23, while Marcus Adams took 3-35.
The visitors in reply reached their target in the 39th over carding 180-4, Joe Chaplin top scored with 65 but the man of the match had to be all rounder Campion, who backed his fine bowling display up with an unbeaten 40.
Reigning champions Connah’s Quay returned to winning ways with a home victory over Bangor by six wickets, thanks to a scintillating century from Martin Burger.
Bangor posted 182-7d in the 54th over, David Winter hit a quick fire 48 that included five 4’s and one 6, while Simon Murley contributed 35 and Matthew Jackson hit 28. Shane Carlton was the pick of the bowlers collecting 4-42.
The hosts, inspired by Burger’s 106 off only 82 balls that included twenty two 4’s, made light-work of their goal carding 183-4 in the 37th over.
Meanwhile, Menai Bridge are up to third after they thumped Mold by eight wickets.
Mold won the toss and elected to bat but were dismissed for 155, with Tim Coggan in lethal form taking 5-36, while Robbie Jones was also on song claiming 3-32.
It was the dynamic duo in reply for Menai Bridge that saw them home to victory, with Coggan unbeaten on 78 and captain Jones undefeated on 48.
Elsewhere, Pontblyddyn secured a winning draw against Brymbo, with Glenn Chambers' century (111) the highlight of the match.
Finally, Northop defeated St Asaph by five wickets.
