ah right, Tombo Bradley....bloody LH isnt he lol

Yeah uv got to ask the old people to move if the ball keeps going near them apparently....some old boy on a mobility scooter was doing lap times i recon when we played....wheel spinning the lot!

Top Tekkers tho mate...150 takes some doing! Bloke at our club scored 154 in the 3rds on sat to take the clubs top score title in all teams.

Yeah thats him, he opened the bowling and was fairly quick. Got a bit mouthy though, tried telling me how to bat untill i took 21 from his same over lol. Cheers Tom, was my lucky day I guess!

240* :o

I'll see if there's a link to it. Very poor standard of oppo I believe but still to manage that is a mean achievement in 46 overs!

Here we are, only league result but small proof lol look for division 6 Hatfield bs west bretton

The dangerous Allin (36) kept going before an excellent catch on the boundary (M.Bradley) snuffed out the visitors’ opportunity of a decent score

Haven't played particularly well recently so can't find much.

Headline in the local rag after hitting 84no in an 18 over evening league game:

"Augers well for Nick's Ilton side."

Only really works if you know my name: Nick Auger lol, mum has it in the scrap book haha. From the best of my knowledge, they meant "all goes well"

Was a really good game even though we lost, I thought I was on for a big'un till I fended off straight to gully! The wicket pretty much stayed the same through the whole game and it was a sunny day so it didn't really matter about bowling or batting first I dont think :)

Lol bucha, that's a big call when on 16  :p

most of my write ups are football related :(

"Two goals from Jonny Ridd, the first into the top corner from 30 yards and the second a delicate chip over the advancing keeper"
and
"Ridd scored the goal of the game with a curling shot from outside the box" just to drag up a couple :)

Finally found one that had me in it, just a shame I wasn't always mentioned for the right reasons...

"As King played himself in he became more aggressive hitting two big sixes with one landing on the Pavilion roof off the bowling of the unfortunate Bradley"

"When on 34 Malherbe was dropped by Bradley at point but a few overs later with the partnership on 94 King gave a similar chance that Bradley was pleased to pouch."

"In an attempt to give Malherbe the strike White managed to run himself out for 2 following some more good fielding by the youngster Bradley."

"as the tight bowling induced a wild shot from Bradley who was caught by Slabbert for 6 off Websdale."

Ohh and that Malherbe went on to add 66 more runs before finally getting out for 100, so if I could have taken that catch, who knows? We might have won.

Sam Grant led the attack with 3-38 and Andy Isaacs snatched 2-12.

In their response, Steyning steadily lost wickets, despite Dave Curtis-Botting's 34, Sam Grant's 33 and Will Buckley's 19 not out, and they were all out for 136, having been 96-9.

Matt Keen took 4-25 for Goring.

Sewell said: "A few things went wrong but all credit to Goring as they played very well.

"We started fantastically, restricting them to one and a half an over for a while and getting them to 50-odd for five wickets. A couple of partnerships after this, though, helped them up to a decent total.

"I thought it was a very good total on the wicket and it would be difficult to get to. We bowled well and it was a good day for the seamers but they didn't get the luck at times.

"Goring bowled pretty well at us and it wasn't a day when we were giving away our wickets easily. They just beat us on the day and deserved the result.

"A couple of mentions have to go to Sam, who was a real class act with his bowling and batting, and Will, for some fantastic bowling, before coming in and hitting a few fours with the bat, which we all enjoyed.
