The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

League set to start on 17th, we’ve got our first pre season friendly tomorrow, with another one on the 10th...I’ve unsuccessfully searched around the local shops for hand warmers!

Hopefully I don’t get many catches at first slip!

Bought some for this weekend! Surprisingly yesterday’s game was a warm one!

Only a jumper and T-shirt needed, lapping the pitch in shorts and a t-shirt! Northern people don’t feel the cold, unfortunately looks like the weather is changing just in time for the competitive stuff to start in a couple week 🙈 here comes the wettest summer on record! Sod’s law isn’t it

Which league?

Mine (South East Wales CL) has said that they’re cancelled for the first half of the season but waiting for advice on what we do for half 2

We have our first game Saturday. Meant to be 5 degrees and possibly snowing. Might have to get some last minute hand warmers 🥶

Sent an email to a club in Enfield, maybe going for a net tomorrow. Always hate the first, socially awkward as it gets

Until you start pumping their bowlers out of the net and then everyone is your best friend.

So we've been green lighted for a T10 event that spans 2 weeks starting April 19th. Question is if this remains by next week too or will there be short term changes. We're officially in a lockdown til April 18th in east of Austria. So quite the tight timing.

So our league due to start on 17th have sent an email out saying that we won’t be allowed any spectators even though the pubs round the corner will be allowed people sitting outside having a beer. They’re asking clubs if they want to delay the season for a couple of weeks. That still wouldn’t take us up to a point where spectators are allowed but it would give them a chance to plan accordingly.

its a bit of an odd one isn't it...I thought ECB roadmap said supporters (rule of 6 - maximum limits etc.) from 12th April?  Will be interesting for clubs playing on open/public space grounds as impossible to manage.

I know my club are taking the approach that as we play in a public park there's nothing we can do to stop members of the public standing and watching.

If it's club members they may get a gentle reminder that they shouldn't congregate in larger than allowed groups but it's not the role of a cricket club to police the Covid regulations in a public space.

Well the ECB sneakily changed the roadmap to say it wasn’t allowed. With in an hour or so of receiving the first email the league secretary sent another saying ECB have spoken to DCMS and decided that spectators are fine as long as they stick to the rule of 6 thing which it originally was.

Even then, what can you do if you're in a public park and 8 random folk come down and decide to sit on the boundary and watch? More daft, unenforceable nonsense.
