Ken, how did you do that?

Dived to stop a sweep shot, stopped it and looked down to see my hand bleeding. It was hit hard but I've stopped harder but I guess I was just unlucky with where and how it's hit my hand. We're really short tomorrow and praying for rain so I feel guilty for not playing but it's just not worth the risk.

Hope everyone goes well today, could be opening the batting this week for the first time. Bit of a promotion for a regular number 8-11 but I've worked hard and scored a fluent 26 off 15 last week on a nightmare pitch. Opened the bowling with my left arm offies and took a wicket first ball. Ended up 2 for 18 off 7.

If offered it, take strike. Always the chance of a loosener or two to look at/hit out of the ground.  ;)

Game cancelled, due to the other team not having enough players, an hour before the game was meant to start. Annoyed is an understatement  >:(

4 hours waiting for the game to be called off without a ball being bowled! I hate cricket!

Rubbish. 1 lousy run. Got a ball that stayed low. Managed to get bat to it but it knocked off stump on way through. Always Sunday I guess...
Dropped a catch too. Managed to get fingertips to it, bruised my finger pretty bad

Game cancelled, then got called up as emergency fielder for the 1stXI. Spent a lot of the afternoon in the covers.

Anyone who has ever seen me play will laugh their nuts off at this.

Standard 217 run win for us today. 351-3 batting first, one of our openers with 119 an number 3 with 153*.
Reduced to 38 overs chasing 320 for the oppo who ended up 103-7. I ended with figures of 7 overs, 4 maidens, 2-8. Bowling average of 4 in the 2s, might retire  ;)

Lost comfortably.  Bowled well to restrict them to 178-7. Had the novelty of bowling on a track covered in halestones at one point.  In hindsight it didnt do us any favours as the track got sticky when the sun came out. We collasped to 95ao as their spinners proved difficult to get away. Bowled 1-27 off 9 at the death and slogged 14 try to get after the medium pacer but got a leading edge to one that held up.  Not our day.

Haha

We batted first, got to 50-0 then it rained. Their skipper was very reluctant to go back on after this. Then we got to 122-4. It rained. It had stopped raining for 10 minutes before their team appeared to move the covers off. We stayed outside during this time. Their skipper was again reluctant to go on. I gave my players the instruction to get to max batting points as quickly as possible, which we did the ball before coming off for rain again.

Then we called it a day as we would have been playing in the dark by the end!

Their captain just seemed so reluctant to play cricket, I've played in far worse conditions.
