ON an unresponsive artificial track, a winning draw in this Fylde League division two game seemed scant reward for St Annes IV's hard work against Blackpool IV.
The innings was given a firm foundation with two fine half-centuries from Vijay Chandrasekar (56) and John Dougall (51).
Later Matt Dougall and Mike Kelliher quickened the total to a decent level of 177-4.
In reply, wickets were hard to capture, but young Ben Hall looked great value for his 3-29.
In another marathon spell, Ian McCabe kept tight control with 3-59 as Blackpool reached 162-7.
