Saturday played vs Tring Park 3s. Bowled fine for my 0/21 off 6, could have had an lbw but the umpire felt he couldn't give someone stomach before wicket. Took a catch at mid wicket and didn't have to bat as we chased down the target pretty easily to win by five wickets with the best part of 30 overs left.

Sunday, finish coaching and drive to Bradford to pick my Aussie mate up. Things haven't worked out for him regarding work up north, he wasn't in a good way so he's moved in with me for the summer and joined BCC.

Wednesday, friendly t20 away to Tring Park. They had 90/1 off 10 and ended with 142. The only catch we took was me, off an incorrectly called no ball. We missed close to a dozen catches, I missed one in the last over that was swirling all over the place and just didn't stick in my hand. 0/11 from 2 but bowled really well, 18* from 9 in the chase as we won by 8 wickets with 6 overs spare. Hit a big straight six, but MotM undoubtedly my mate with a cheap 1fer opening up and 62 from 32.

Another easy win means this is the fourth week in a row where I haven�t had a bat.

Today I played vs top of the league opponent, had no 3 trapped leg before, their umpire raised finger and then straight away started saying, it was played, pointing towards the batman 🙂he scored 50 and then later on easy catch dropped at wide mid off, that no 11 scored 25, they made 197 and we ended up with 127!
I ended with 8-1-36,is there any justice in cricket? 🙂

My keeping is getting better and better, another two stumpings and a catch, my fitness work has really paid off, however, my batting is going the otherway quicker and ive gone from opening to asking to bat no higher than 8. Got the yips.

The main thing is we have won 8 from 9 and we beat the team that came up with and beat us twice last year today. We are first and are in a strong position.

Really proud of the progress our 8 year old club

I lost the toss and we ended up bowling. The oppo racked up 252-3 we should have had more wickets but we didn�t have an umpire and a stumping and a fair few LBW shouts went unanswered. We started well but then lost two wickets in two balls to leave us 40-2. Our number 3 got 153no and batted very well and everybody else chipped in to knock them off in the 35th over. We are 4 from 5 now and the colts are progressing nicely which makes the game more enjoyable

Played against the team I scored a ton against last year, and followed it up with a 70 yesterday! Only the second time I�ve gone past 50 and not bad considering they were 2nd in the league and we are top.

We batted first and got 173-8. I batted for 2.5 hours in the 30 degree heat (no mean feat considering I�m a fat ba****d)
I was one of two out and out batsmen today (the other is averaging about 10). We had several bowling all-rounders but nobody who could bat time so I when I came in at 3 early on I knew I had to see us through till 35 or so overs. Ending up 70 off 133 allowing our 5,6,7,8 to do what they do best which is swing the life out of anything.

We then bowled them out for 138 including a couple of awful drops in the field. We opened with our spinner as he had to be at work at 4:30 he picked up a wicket before our actual opening bowler came on and picked up 5-17

Yesterday was on of those days.

We lost the toss and got asked to field. Spent 3 hours chasing leather as the op posted 250-7 from their 45.
I bowled like a drain, fielded like a (No Swearing Please) and managed to (rather painfully) split a fingernail halfway down in the process.

All of out top order chipped in with 30+ and we won 5 down with an over to spare.

I hated cricket at tea, but as we won I can laugh about how crap I was!

Played today opened the batting and top scored chasing 310 off 40 due to the England match at Edgebaston we only had 7 players the oppo spotted an opportunity claimed the toss and batted first.

Fielded first in a team decision after winning the toss thinking it would only get hotter as the day went on. Kept the opposition down to 180 despite me dropping there top scorer on the boundary (everyone said it was a tough catch but I still feel I should have held it) it was Unbearable in the field, real sweatbox of a ground with no club house or changing rooms as they have been condemned by the council! Opened the batting, was feeling good, got a full toss on leg stump and I top edged it trying paddle it round the corner. I was furious. to say I've had better days would have been saying something.

Today we scored 248, 1st 3 overs had 5 wickets ended with 7 for 13, 2 caught and 5 bowled.

Played 2s again vs Farnham Common 1s. Batted 7 and went in with seven overs to go and a target of 260, whilst we were on 210. Hit my first ball for a straight six, then bowled third ball trying to hit a quicker ball even further. Stupid from me and I was annoyed with myself after.

Came on first change as we looked to defend 274, took two wickets in my first spell, followed by four more later on to end with 6/51 from 16. They ended 158/7 from 48 after we let a few chances go down unfortunately but we out played them in every facet of the game. Seems like in the 2s I either go wicketless or take loads!

Well played. Who do you play for?

Played on Saturday.
Batted like a (No Swearing Please), But did come out in the 42nd over so had to try accelerate but sadly missed a straight one that I could have played the shot 3 times to!
Opened the bowling for us as the pitch was slow and gripping, bowled 15 overs on the reel 3-38, had my field well set. Only went for 5 boundaries in my spell which I was pleased with, bowled one poor over which went for 14 but recovered and got that fella out next over

Not playing today due to pm dental treatment to get a front tooth capped also unavailable on Saturday due to a wedding never understood why cricketers get married in the cricket season.
