Uplyme and Lyme Regis were denied a crack at the side closest to them in the E Division table.

Rain at Bridestowe left Ashley Caddy’s side sitting out a contest for the second time this soggy season to date.

The top two’s inactivity allowed Shaldon to climb into second place and they are now 19 points behind Caddy’s team at the half way mark of the campaign.

On Saturday Uplyme and Lyme Regis entertain a Kilmington side they beat by three wickets in a low scoring affair on the opening day of the season back in May.
