Cricket Style |
Right hand bat becoming ever fonder of cow corner.
Goalkeeper style of fielding, occasional keeper &
definitely not a bowling option |

Favorite Away
Ground |
Stinchcombe see below. I can still see their guys
using their towels to dry the wicket to get us back
out as we were 8-3 when the rain came. We then got
170 odd off 35 overs & then skittled them for 60 –
cheers guys |

Cricket Highlight |

Most Embarrassing
Moment in Cricket |
Getting stumped off a wide on
Wednesday.
Running in to someone trying to take a catch &
smashing nose in plus whiplash injuries. Possible
concussion assisted in hitting 10 off the 1st
2 balls of the final over with 9 required |
Funniest Moment
Seen
on a Cricket Pitch |
Tour game for Marlborough Stirling see excerpt from
said tour report. “As another delivery was clipped
towards the mid wicket boundary in swooped Big Bob
Brunt whose lightening reflexes enabled him to get
his fingertips to the ball and cling on for a
marvellous catch (worthy of any test match) despite
taking a hefty tumble. Unfortunately the same
cannot be said for Bob's trousers, which yielded to
the strain and exposed an ample rear to the
merriment both teams and several bemused passers by” |

Top 5 Pet Hates |

Ashton Press running out at Bell |
|
Bowlers who don’t run in much but bowl pretty quickly –
should be a no ball |
|
Losing when we should have won |
|
Far right\racist political groups especially the ones
who have this deluded concept of them being part of some
master race – do these guys ever have a good look at
themselves in the mirror? |

People who can’t get themselves sorted out i.e. adults
