Ivo Tennant in The Times reports that Cheltenham’s victory over Bromsgrove in the first round of the Cockspur Cup on April 30 has been overturned because they included Steve Snell, the Gloucestershire reserve wicketkeeper, in their side.
Snell broke the rules because he was over 23 – contracted cricketers under that age can play if they have not taken part in any of the four major competitions that season – and he scored a run-a-ball 108 as Cheltenham won by 38 runs.
