Nantwich Cricket Club’s 1st team maintained their Cheshire County League title challenge with an emphatic win at Alderley Edge on Saturday.

Put into bat on a bowler-friendly wicket, Nantwich – without their injured top run-scorer Luke Robinson – did not find it easy but opener Ben Wright (52) dug in for a half-century that was the foundation of the visitors’ 166-9 from 45 overs.
