I was awesome Last game. Had 46 and all wkts were run out 
Not all my fault: One was driven back at bowler who stuck out a foot on to the stumps.
Second one was His call and he did'nt make it. 3rd & 4th Lads were new and won't back up.
5th bloke hit the roof of net ran, bounced on the floor and a fielder run him out then i ran myself out trying to pepper the back wall for 6runs.

Bruce who do you play for? And what sportshall do you play at?

[Bruce]

Cranborne, We play at Dorset Cricket centre @ Hurn. Where Christchurch play their Cricket and Football.
You local?

[legger123]

Ah yeah I know where you play!
My team play at Clayesmore School. We're not very good but its a good laugh. And i'm not playing at the moment due to recovering from torn cartilage in my knee and surgery! I umpire instead, just want to be back playing!

[Bruce]

Both days at Cranborne, Although might move to Colehill for Saturdays- New challenge and all that.

Which division for Dorchester? Cranborne 1sts are in div 2 with your 2's or 3's I think.

[legger123]

Yeah.
I play for the 1's and 2's. I played for the 2's again Cranborne this season! You dicked us by 8 wickets!

[Bruce]

Yeah our opener had 113!! He bats like that every week. Some times it comes off, sometimes in don't!

[legger123]

Yeah! Luckily I didn't take much punishment when bowling!

I have just got back form a great day of Indoor cricket at the Kent County Finals Day in which we WON!!!! Three games today: First games against the Vine bowled them out for 52.............25 which were extra the new balls today were wild!!!! Knocked them off in 5 for 2 down.  Semi bowled Wye out for 64 knocked them off in 7 for 0. opening pair retired. Final Betteshanger got 110 of the 12overs we knocked them of in 8..............48 off 4 overs when we lost our first wicket and then 3 retired!! We are the Champions bring on the Regional Finals in 2 weeks.

First game back today after tearing my knee cartilage. Everything went well when bowling, took a wicket in my first over, always a good feeling! However our bowler who bowled the first over went for 28! He has a no ball problem and get it in to his bloody brain that he keeps over stepping that line! Stupid sod. After the 12 overs, we managed to get them all out for 146 of the 3rd ball of the last over. We only managed to get 103 from the 12 overs. I only managed to make one, then got run out, to which I had basically ran two, when the non-striker hadn't left his crease! (No Swearing Please). I thought I could of done it, would of been a dream return! Still good to be back though! Bring on the summer

God i am so unfit!! Sweating would be an understatement.

Batted at no.3 and got about 20 (i never count, only wait for umpire to say ''retire'' very rare!).
We posted 127-3

Bowled 3 overs 3 wickets for 14 runs. Oppo all out for around 70.

Makes it better when you win against your local rivals and send them down to lower league.

Last indoor game of the season today, against Shroton.
We bowled first and they racked up 170 off their 12 overs. We're not the best bowling unit around at all! I bowl line and length and then everyone just gets taken to the cleaners! One of their players must of scored around 70 odd before hitting the roof.
I opened the batting along with another young player my team has, lost a wicket of my partner fairly soon on. I and number 3 managed to retire at 25 along with our number 4. We fell 30 runs short, but being one of the worse teams it was a good effort. Hopefully looking to do it next year! And prove a better team!

Bring on the season!
