Rich get richer
The worst kept secret in Pembrokeshire cricket was made public on Thursday (Feb 22) when Cresselly announced via Twitter that Daniel Sutton would be joining them for the forthcoming campaign. Last season’s best batsman by a distance, he’ll be joining up with a team that already boasts an impressive lineup of capable willow wielders and will more than likely open up the innings with Adam Chandler, a magnificent player in his own right. Sutton scored 936 runs in league cricket last season, add that to Cresselly’s team total of 2579 and that would have amounted to 742 runs more than Whitland, last season’s top team run gatherers. He virtually carried Johnston's batting on his own and his departure will leave a gaping hole in a line up that was already depleted after Steven Mills moved up to the South Wales Premier League. Take his runs off Johnston's team total and they would have scored just 1775 moving them from second in the run gathering table to second from bottom.
