New Zealander Dewayne Bowden will miss Alton’s next eight Southern Electric Premier Division matches after falling off his bike when he was cycling to do some cricket coaching at a school in the town this week.
The left-hand all-rounder, who has been a significant player in Alton’s rise in recent seasons, broke his foot and damaged his Achilles in the cycling accident.
“He arrived here nursing a shoulder injury and didn’t bowl in last week’s win at Bashley (Rydal), top scoring with 45 with the bat,” explained skipper Scott Myers.
“That injury was due to have cleared up in the next week or so, but now he’s out for two months.”
Howard Gadsby replaces Bowden for the Jubilee Field visit by Burridge,
