Wet blanket on cricket

RAIN played havoc with round eight of the Dandenong and District Cricket Association Turf One season.
Only Springvale South secured a serving of six points after an all-important first innings victory.
The Buckley Ridges and Doveton, Narre Warren and Southern Pirates, Cranbourne and Keysborough, Berwick and North Dandenong, and Dandenong West and Parkfield matches were draws.
Players and officials will be hoping for clearer skies when a new two-day match resumes this Saturday.
