where their keeper took a head high catch standing up to a rapid bowler, one of the best pieces of cricket i've ever seen.

We played a regional semi a few years back and Ryan Davies was playing for the oppo. His keeping was something else! Was only after the game that we found out he was the England U19 keeper at the time! Now playing for Somerset I believe having left Kent.

Overdue update on this.
I play at a couple of venues for my club and have had mixed fortunes to say the least.

At the Ageas bowl we are bottom of the table, having only won once. It's a funny old game as we finished runners up last season with the same side
As we had all but lost I had a bit of fun last game, which included ramping their opening bowler!  :D

At the local sports hall we are unbeaten at the halfway stage of the season. We have one more game before Xmas against the only other unbeaten side. Fingers crossed we're on for a bit of silverware  :D

Used to, loved it. Not all that much like real cricket but far more fun than the more common versions here in the UK.

I'm guessing at Bristol? I played there a few times in national league games, nice centre.

Been playing the 6 a side stuff at the county ground, and prefer it to the 8 a side we used to play. It has reignited my enjoyment for indoor which is good.

Never played at the Bristol one actually, Leicester and in university champs at Derby.

Haven't played in the county ground ones, is it the old 6 a side /10 overs/2 per bowler @Byo ? Don't mind the format as long as you've got a new ball, if the ball's not doing anything then it's a very easy game for a sensible batsman.
