[FattusCattus]

Oh bugger! My season is unravelling fast!

Having had problems with my bowling all season, I tore my calf last week and am hobbling around on one leg.

We are so short of players, I played this week,and bowled of 1 pace - it was slow, and largely ineffective, which has not cheered me up at all - I also can't move in the field.

...and whilst we are on the subject, I'm a definate tail ender with the bat - so I'm struggling for runs.

So - in conclusion, the easy solution is; lots of physio on the calf, lose 3 stone fast for the bowling and lots of sessions on the bowling machine for the batting - all in the next week!!!!

God I love and hate this game all at the same time!!!!!!!!!!

yesterday in me and the other opening bowler bolwed 3.4 over between us as he ended up in causalty with one finger at a right angle after palming a drive in the air which i attepmeted to catch and cracked my back in the process and ended up in a heap moving form slip to slip and spltitting my finger after dropping a toughy! and to include a 3 ball duck really good day out

Won this morning semi-final of the T20 after bowling them out for 105....final in 2 weeks time should be a good day out

Won today in Sunday league. Beat Sherston by 5 wickets (nice team and ground). They got 158-6 off 40, I got 7.2-2-24-2 including my first c&b.
We were 30-5 in reply including dodgy triggering! I got 5 then triggered LBW but reckon I was LBW before which wasn't given. Then a 129 partnership saw us home.


100th game in men's cricket for me and got 1968 runs

[peplow]

won today chasing 158, no byes, swapped as lad hurt his leg and couldnt run, then got a wicket when came onto bowl and 62 not out! Good day at long last!

Got Hanham in the final at Cleeve on sunday 8th, Bedminster vs Thornbury on after us I think which should be worth a watch too!

Looks like that was a cracking knock Harry - it is extremely difficult to keep going when the batters are all getting out at the other end. I see there is another Stokoe at the other end is that your Dad? Shame he wasn't at at the crease when you hit your 100 - that would be awesome in my book.

Shame you got thumped though!!!

Not a great weekend for me im afraid

13 on saturday (triggered after being hit outside off stump)
and 2 for 48 off 10 overs (including the wicket of a certain Notts star!!!)

6 caught behind on Sunday
1 for 15 off 3
Sunday was a charity game Sri Lankan 11 vs Rest of the World 11

Thanks Buzz, yeah my Dad got called up because we didn't have enough players!

[eaowbear]

Well batted Harry - always an amazing feeling to get your first ton and I'm with Buzz on this one - to have your dad playing aswell would be awesome and bet he was as proud as punch!

interesting weekend, played on saturday, bowled first, 45 over match, 19-4-69-5, my last 3 overs went for 34 as well... at one point i had 4-2-10-4! they got 190, we were all out 110, went in at 9, faced 4 overs of balls well outside leg stump, and massive full tosses outside leg that i could barely get bat on, then when their opener came on he got one to rise sharply off a length and got caught behind for 2!
sunday, bowled first, took 2 wickets in 2 balls in my first over including bowling someone round their legs! then one of their 1st teamers came in and hit 71 off naff all, 6-1-32-2, bit expensive! 173 all out. we then put on 113 for the first wicket, and then stumbled over the line, 176-4 in the end! good weekend with the ball for me before i go on holiday for 2 weeks!

It is a good day out Tom - we won it last year beating Blagdon in the final....

[Ayrtek Cricket]

yeah i was chatting to Ken (Blake??) at the B&D game about in last thursday mate as a few of your lads were playing along with my bro and another lad from our club and he said about it being a good crack.....Blagdon what a miserable bunch they are
