This week's highlights (Aug 31 - Sep 06, 2015)

International Cricket | September 04, 2015 Costessey cricket ground to close as maintenance costs are too high The pitch at Longwater Lane, Costessey, would require around £10,000 to be maintained for the 2016 season, a meeting of Costessey Town Council heard this week. Cricketers pay £800 per team per season to hire the pitch for nine matches, but the pitch is only used by one team and the costs of maintaining the playing surface are far greater.
