Brockman Cup - Brixham complete semi-final line up

BROCKMAN CUP QUARTER-FINALS

ALAN Boon hit an undefeated half-century to steer Ipplepen into the semi-finals of the Brockman Cup at the expense of Stoke Gabriel.

Stoke appeared to be in the driving seat after making 130 for four – Ben Robinson following his ton in the previous round with 52 more and Jack Tolley hitting 37 not out.

Tolley (2-8) and Steve Nand-lal (2-28) appeared to have the brake on the Pens until Boon wandered to the wicket.

Fifty not out later, after a match-turning stand with Keith Bell, the Pens had won by five wickets.

Paignton were waved through to the semi-finals by Torquay, who were unable to raise a team.
