Sun Match Report 19/7 – Return of Wafatunga
So Sunday cricket is back! Yes it's very different in this new COVID world but at the same time it's very much the same. Our first opponents back were Bank of England.

Saturday Captain’s Log – Welcome to 2020 and Reflection on 2019
A poisoned chalice (idiom - especially British English) a thing which seems attractive when it is given to somebody but which soon becomes unpleasant.

The potent… Continue reading Saturday Captain’s Log – Welcome to 2020 and Reflection on 2019

Sunday XI Vs Old Wimbledonians Away – Cricket in Epsom and Ewell
Hillians As you all had ball-by-ball coverage (well near enough) from Chris K, I can keep it relatively short. Thanks Chris – the whatsapp updates are much appreciated mate.

With us sitting top of the league we now had an away game against Croydon of India, one of the only 2 teams to have beaten us this season.
