BOLTERS COME WITHIN SIX RUNS OF REGIONAL BASH TITLE

Northern Inland has narrowly missed out on a clash with the New South Wales Blues, after falling six runs short of  the Regional Bash T20 title.

The Bolters made the perfect start, courtesy of Tim Kensell.

The West Tamworth all rounder claimed four wickets, leaving the Border Bullets struggling with just four runs.

The Albury-based outfit soon got back on track though, posting seven for 130 from its 20 overs.

In response, the Bolters were battling at three for 33, before Michael Rixon stepped in.

The right hander managed 34, but couldn’t lift his side to victory.
