Lost Saturday in a horror show, and won Sunday.

Got skittled for 112 by a poor team on Saturday, we all batted like penises myself included for 8 which was incredibly frustrating. only managed to get five of their wickets in a game we should win.

Sunday we chased 217 at Portishead. I regret saying to our captain I'd like to bat at 4 as I only came in and faced 10 balls as all the runs had pretty much been got. Our opener getting 86 and number 3 getting 60*. I managed 11* and hit one in the lake there again :)

Ok so Saturday for me was the day/game from hell. Firstly locked myself out of the house first thing when I took dogs for a walk. Then during warm up before the game I got a ball thrown I to the spring back stump that hit the top and bounced up I to my mouth splitting my top & bottom lip and bleeding al over new season shirt. Opened the batting got hit somehow in the tiny gap between inner thigh pad and knee and got the biggest purple/green bruise and then to top it off got a awful LBW decision that was given because the only person to Appeal was third man. Finally when keeping a ball was thrown in as the batsman was taking a single it hit the back of his helmet and went straight into my nose popping that all over my face and ruining another players new season shirt. And we lost on the last ball of the game when the bowler failed to pick up a ball rolled to him from cover when they needed 2 to win off last ball, batsman miss hit it and just ran and for some unknown reason the bowler just seemed to let it go.

Then on Sunday with 2 black eyes, split lips and bloody whites I hit 172 my highest ever score. So kinda made up for my Saturday.

Well, Sunday I was due to be coaching a District game, drove about 2 miles and it was called off. Never mind as my Sunday team was 1 short. We waiting for the rain to stop and eventually go some play, I hit 46 batting at number 5, got caught trying to hit out in the last 2 overs. Then opened the bowling and took 4-12!

Stunning turnaround, doubt I will ever hear of a worse day backed up by a cracker. Well done that man.

Managed to win our first Saturday game of the season at the weekend. Batted first on a very damp wicket and got 153-8, came in late on and struggled only getting 3 runs. Then bowled them out for 118, opened the bowling and took 2-28 off 7 overs, managed to knock their opener over and bounced their number 3 out. Bowled pretty sharp again which is awesome, especially on a very damp wicket.

Last weekend was a complete washout. Both Saturday and Sunday cancelled due to lack of opposition! Having said that, my hangover on Sunday would have been interesting for a day of cricket.

Hoping for better luck this weekend!

Saturday was garbage, bowled out for 30 (clubs lowest score ever). Pitch had a bit of spice, and their opener took 7-16 in a spell of sharp seaming swinging fast bowling, but our batsmen were dreadful. He bowled 2 triple-wicket maidens, which was mad! I got 2* batting at 9, their slip fielders said I shaped up better than the top order! We managed to get them 7 down before they knocked it off, so it was an interesting day. Started at 1.30, finished at 3.45!

Sunday was a last-ball finish, They put on 140 and we knocked it off 6 down, I bowled 8-3-26-0. Had their opener dropped at slip on 14, he went on to make 42! Mortified!

Played on Saturday and we were very much second best if not third best out of two teams. Our captain (less said about his captaining abilities the better) put us in on a green wicket. We struggled to 148 off 45, I got a comfortable 14 before being run out trying to up the run rate.

We are playing this Saturday with another depleted team and I've already been told I could be opening the batting and keeping. I haven't opened in a league game for years and I'm really hoping to grab my chance to show them what I can do. It'll be a change from coming in down the order trying to up the rate or coming in when were right up against it at 30 odd for 5.

After 6 innings, my average is 3.8... That says it all.
Bowled 4 overs at the weekend, shoulder managed to ease off on the pain during the spell. But afterwards the pain has returned and lasted

Got triggered at the weekend. Smacked it into my pad and up came the finger.
I could have stuffed his finger into his ####. Problem was that he did it to their skipper and another one of their batters.

Normally I can wash it off, but this my #1 fixture.

The Royal Artillery at Larkhill.

Furious? I'm spitting splinters!

Good news was that their skipper agreed that the umpire in question was a ########.

(and relax)

Played a T20 tonight. Due to the weather ended up being 10 overs each. We posted 129-4. I batted at 4, came in just before the 7th over and scored 37 and out on last ball using the 'mongoose' style Msr from steve. Oppo ended up 68 for 7 from their 10.

Looks like I've got the call up for Saturday - not surprised looking at the weather...
