One game left, but here we go:

27 knocks, 487 runs at 21.17 with five 50s, highest score 65. Disappointing return with the bat but sadly didn't get a chance to play many long innings this season, lots of coming in at the end of innings. Track being relaid too so hopefully that will improve things (noone has ever scored a league ton at our ground, put it that way).

121.1 overs, 38 wickets at 11.92, best figures of 4-22 (twice). Decent year with the ball but could have been better, bowled at least 50 overs less than the other 4 bowlers from my club who got over 30 wickets.

Practice well over the winter and onwards and upwards next year I hope!

Update after the final game, got 46 and 2 wickets to move myself up to 533 runs and 40 wickets for the season. Not unhappy with that, scope for improvement next year though.

For 2nds where I've played the majority of games this season - 12 innings, 2 not outs, 394 runs @ 39.40, 3 50's, 1 century including my best of 109.

Overall (including a couple of evening games and 1st team) - 17 innings, 4 not outs, 434 runs @ 33.38.

Also been make shift keeper for most of the season and have taken 12 catches which I'm pretty happy about.

Been an up and down season really, took some time to settle into my new team and was moved around the order due to a couple of poor scores, for a couple of weeks i didn't even get a knock much to my frustration.

Mid season after a weeks break was the most productive with scores of 57, 109, 91 and 51 (maybe I should go on holiday more often!).

For the last 3 weeks I've been drafted into the 1st team and have not had the same opportunity which has put a bit of a downer on the end of my season as felt in decent touch with the bat.

Still one game to go, ideally would like to make it over 500 runs total as I class that as a decent season but forecast for Saturday doesn't look favourable to do this.

Did manage to get the final game in on Saturday despite all the rain in the morning, ended up being a pretty decent one for me personally scoring my maiden 1st team 50 at my new club (53*) to put us in a match winning position but alas we lost by 2 wickets in the end.

Final stats are;

18 innings, 5 not outs, 487 runs (High 109), Avg 37.46, 4 - 50's, 1-100.  Overall pretty happy with those considering the things mentioned in my original post which have affected my season.  Also worked out yesterday (amazing what a slow day at work can make you do!) that I've passed 1500 runs in the last 3 seasons now

To add to mine.

Been playing on league site as opposed to club site as our skipper just bemoaned missing out on avgs by 2 wickets(by far best average but failed to qualify with 38 not 40)

Surprised to discover I was 9th top scorer in the top division of our league, and tenth best average of anyone who qualified with 400plus runs.



Cheered me up abit.

Recognised some of the names in this - you play in same league as Holmesfield? We played them in last 16 of Village Cup this year
