LINCOLNSHIRE County Cricket League Premier Division rivals Caistor Town and Scunthorpe Town clash at Brigg Road tomorrow.

Liam Wood's side go into the contest at Brigg Road three points off the pace in fourth position – but victory could see them lift the title.

That outcome would depend on leaders Barton Town and Alford both losing their final matches – and Scunthorpe dropping further points next week. With Sahan Wijerathne unavailable having flown home to Sri Lanka, spinner Kieran Brooker is recalled alongside Dominic Bishop.

Captain Wood is likely to bat at three in the absence of Wijerathne, with all-rounder Paul Dimbleby another contender.

Whatever the result at the weekend, though, Caistor Town will certainly better their 2011 standing (sixth).

Meanwhile, Kevin Parker's second team and Ernie Allison's third team are without a fixture.

Allison's men return to Lincolnshire County League action next weekend, as do the Cougars – who are now out of the running to lift the North Lindsey League division one crown.

Team: First-XI v Scunthorpe Town 1sts, Brigg Road, 12.30pm – Liam Wood (capt), Peter Briggs, Harry Boulton, Dominic Bishop, Paul Dimbleby, James Parker, Mark Gowshall, Peter Jacob (wk), Paul Jackson, Kieran Brooker, Tim Brown.
