bad day at the office. 10 overs, 1-25, which was fine, but i dropped 4 catches, including 2 off my own bowling! i have a feeling that i'd struggle to catch a cold...

I hate cricket now. I play a high standard and do nothing, then I (No Swearing Please) play (No Swearing Please) standard and have no interest, all my coaches tell me to move club and guarantee me first team cricket in Div1 (best league in Ireland) but I'll have to travel about 45mins+ 4/5 times a week.... What do ya's think I should do? I have fucing passionate about cricket, I really love it, but atm I'm just so down about everything because of this and I feel like giving up, It has happened a few people at this club so I don't know.....

Travel Niall. I take it you are still young ? if you are you should push yourself to play the highest standard you can, even if you have to make a few sacrifices. You will enjoy the challenge of playing with and against better players. Better to score 30-40 in a good standard that 70-80 in a poor standard. In the long run your game will improve. Plenty of time to play for your local team when you are older. That's what i would do anyway.

lol Nail, people slag me about that because my history teacher called me that once.... Yeah I'm only 15. A few more things though.... Our youth teams probably have the best players in them and the best standard, although again they are managed poorly... We are the only club with indoor facilities in Leinster and there bloody good ones at that, and it is only 2 mins away so anytime, any day I can text someone to see if they want a net and they are the sort of club that if I left I wouldn't be welcome near it. This could also mean traveling the 45 mins some days and having to turn back with no training done due to rain ect. SO although I am sure it will help me actual playing cricket, I wont be able to practice anywhere near as much.

sent everyone to sleep today by getting 31 off 92 balls lmao. also took 2-25 off 9 overs which was promising.
i also made 9 off 50 balls on a tough track against good opposition yesterday. played a bad shot to get out which i was disappointed about. bowled poorly too with figures of 0-20 off 3 overs lol.

Definitely travel, push yourself, if you are being given a chance, take it with both hands. 45 mins isn't that far, when I played a decent standard of hockey I had to travel 2 or more hours to a game...

On another note, I used my saf genus for the first time today- 65 not out chasing 92, including 36 off an over! (3 6's, 4 4's, 2 no balls and a dot!) Had a 50 partnership off 14 balls! Marvellous.

had a bad game yesterday. played against Bridgwater CC who are 2 leagues above our firsts (West of England Premier One) we were bowled out for 97, with one guy making 43! second highest score was 19 and the rest of us single figures.... they knocked them off after about 20 overs just 2 wickets down with an ex-somerset player smashing 70odd not out.....

better today, rain reduced us to 30 overs a side. played a pretty average team and we scored 220.... a mate of mine got a ton first game! i finished on 41* off about 20 odd ballls. they finished 150 odd for 6, i bowled 6 overs 1 maiden 1 wicket 19 runs. then took a sharp catch at 2nd slip so pretty chuffed!

36 off 24 before running myself out stupidly with a couple of overs to go in a T20, luckily the rain came and saved us.

looks like it could be a year of mainly second team cricket at my new team for me this year, after watching the first team yesterday absolutely destroy last years league champions!

Bowled 8 overs 2 for 33 would have been better had my last over not gone for 12!  They made 202 from their 40 overs and we got them fairly comfortable with one lad making 125 retired.  Despite making the second highest score on my first team debut last week, my 2nd team skip put me down to 8 (due to bowling) and I dint get the chance to bat.  All in all a good day, well apart from the huge rain shower during our innings.
