Promotion hopes rocked by Walton injury


Sway 1st XI's hopes of promotion to County Division 4 were dealt a serious blow by the news of a serious injury to opening bowling wicket-meister, Jack Walton. Fresh from celebrating his 200th wicket for Sway, he broke his leg while wake boarding and will miss the rest of the season. With 14 league wickets already in 2010 at a miserly economy rate of just 2.72, Walton will be a tough act to follow. However, Sway do have bowling strength in depth and the likes of George Thornton and Steve Thistleton will be looking to step up to the plate.

On the positive side, hopefully Jacko will use the enforced break to take the opportunity to get his persistent back problem sorted out so he is raring to go in 2011.
