1st XI maintain 100% record with early finish at Leverstock Green

Selvam's heroics....close but no cigar

Wed, 01 Jun 2011 00:00:00 GMT
TM2s unbeaten run came to an end at Eversholt by the agonising margin of 1 wicket despite a mammoth effort to rescue victory from the jaws of defeat by Selvam Ramasamy who managed the all rounder's dream of a 5 wicket haul allied to a half century.

Results Round-Up May 28 & 29

Thu, 02 Jun 2011 00:00:00 GMT
Time waits for no man, and Results Emails wait for no Scorecards. Well, for 1 out of out 5 scorecards anyway.

I'm hoping that the 1st XI scores get up onto the site to tell the thrilling tale of a middle-to-lower-order batting

Underhand Tactics From Shenley Village Can't Prevent 30 Points For The 3s

A win is a win is a win. Played 6, won 4, drawn 1, lost 1.

Charlie’s 4 for 72 took him to an amazing 19 wickets already, Arun bowled a beautiful spell of tight but aggressive off-spin, and Jim chipped in with a wicket.

Charlie Bowls His Arse Off But 3s Lose Hert...

Sat, 11 Jun 2011 00:00:00 GMT
On a soggy green Rowley Lane wicket, the most important moment of the game is always likely to be the one 20 minutes or so before it starts. So when the Hertford III skipper, low on confidence after 6 losses out of 6, called correctly, his spirits ro
