Eagles win Logan Cup with a round still to be played
Eagles have won the 2022/23 Logan Cup, although there is still one round of the four-day first-class cricket competition to be played.
They have already completed their eight-match programme and finished with 122 points, a tally that cannot now be overtaken by any other provincial team.
Even if the second-placed Mega Market Mountaineers are to win their last match with all the possible bonus points, they can only accrue a total of 121 points.
Eagles began the season well, with three victories in their first four matches as they defeated Southern Rocks, Rhinos and Tuskers.
They then suffered their only defeat in the return match against Rhinos, and mainly due to wet weather their remaining four matches have all been drawn.
Before their latest success, Eagles had last lifted the Logan Cup in the 2015/16 season.
The current campaign will officially end with Southern Rocks facing Rhinos and Tuskers taking on Mountaineers in matches scheduled for 29 March-1 April.
