WITH Forres St Lawrence defeating Highland, it is almost guaranteed that RAF Lossiemouth have secured the Macallan League championship.
Having beaten Buckie at home last Saturday, they still have to play Nairn County, Highland and Fochabers; but, could almost afford to lose all three games.
On a bright but blustery day, very rarely will any match, lasting 85 overs, not produce a single four, far less a six. However, with the depth of grass in the outfield allied with a boundary of Test match proportions, that was what happened.
THE Macallan North League has now reached the halfway stage, when it splits into the the top and bottom six clubs.
For RAF Lossiemouth, a hugely successful first half has been completed with a 100% record. Considering they have rarely fielded their strongest side for various reasons; maybe, they have exceeded their own expectations.

JULES VERNE was famously responsible for 'Around the World in 80 Days', but on Sunday, Northern Counties attempted 'Around the North Cricket Area in Eight Hours'.
Having been committed to the Reserve Twenty20 semi-finals stages at Strathpeffer and also to a re-arranged league fixture at RAF Lossiemouth, one would have been forgiven for thinking that two separate XIs would have been fielded.
