And then there was one. On a day punctuated by free-flowing run scoring, dramatic batting collapses and spinner domination reigning champions Barnard Castle were the only team to emerge with an unbeaten record intact.
Just three games in and Barney are already setting a scorching pace, newcomers Marske the latest to come under their spell in a 128-run hammering at Vere Road.
Skipper Karl Carver led from the front with an unbeaten 116 which included 5 sixes, and with the ever-reliable James Clarkson (58) and Sri Lankan Suminda Lakshan (52) adding generously to the run spree the home team declared on 301-7. The Seasiders response did show early spirit with Reyan Nadeem (52) providing resistance, but then the home spinners weaved their destructive spell, Finn Usher (4-40) and Lakshan (5-42) ripping through as the visitors lost their last six wickets for just 20 runs.
