ONE Saturday promotion is now confirmed for LGCC - it's congratulations to Dave Young's 4th XI - and another remains in the club's control after the penultimate round of Saracens Herts Premier Cricket League matches.

The 4s got the bonus points they needed to make sure of a spot in Regional Division B West, while Kris Jadeja's magnificent 99 at Old Albanian moved the 1st XI into second place in Division One.

Green kept OAs to 172 all out but were five down by the time 50 of the reply's runs were posted. Peerless batting from Kris Jadeja, who fell one short of a century, was backed up by Dave Tyson (33) as this sixth-wicket pair all but sealed victory with a century partnership.

Now the 1s must win their final-day clash with neighbours Kings Langley to be certain of promotion to the Championship.

Imran Iqbal's 2nd XI must try again next summer after falling 70-odd runs short in their must-win home match against table-toppers St. Albans II in Division 5A.

Poor fielding and modest bowling allowed Saints to rack up an over-par 276-8 from their 50 overs. In reply, a quick-fire 40 from Harry Blagden was the Green's only innings of note as they were dismissed for 202 to end any hopes of promotion.

Levy Green 3s need five bonus points from their final-day game at home to promotion-chasing Sandridge II at Parmiter's next weekend to confirm their Division 9B status for another year.

They were skittled for a sub-100 score versus London Colney II, falling to an eight-wicket defeat as the season closed on something of a low note for Gareth Tucker's team.

So it's all eyes on The Green next weekend, as the 1s look to propel themselves into the previously uncharted waters of SHPCL Championship cricket.

And then the summer's final game is the Chess Valley League Division 3 match at Harpenden, where a win for the LGCC & SAWICC XI will secure a second successive promotion.
