AVONCROFT CC picked up seven valuable Crusader Worcestershire League Division Two points in Saturday's losing draw at home to Bewdley.

Batting first, the visitors made a massive 289-8 thanks to skipper Simon Mauger, who top scored with 85, Simon Smith (60) and Matt Cowdrey (57).

Croft's reply was cut short because of the weather. They managed 153-5 from 30 overs, with Dave James hitting an unbeaten 80.

Croft make the short trip to Romsley and Hunnington on Saturday.
