A Sunday and 7 matches, one of which I was at (You can probably guess which!) I’m sitting down to write this as Line of Duty is on the TV, I have work in the morning, so bed will be calling. However I’ve become slightly obsessed with getting these written and out on the same … More The Royal London Cup – Star Men Watch – Day 9
Only 2 games were scheduled in this particular ’round’ only one produced a result as the weather again behaved like an April day. Glamorgan v Kent A cricket match in Cardiff in April is always likely to be at risk. Chris Cooke won the toss for Glamorgan and elected to bat. 15 overs were bowled … More The Royal London Cup – Star Men Watch – Round 6
Today I surprised myself by choosing to stay at home with my daughter who’s visiting from Paris rather than going to the Oval to watch Surrey v Essex. That meant I kept track online and missed out on what proved to be a low scoring game. There was no cricket yesterday, on Easter Monday, today … More The Royal London Cup – Star Men Watch – Round 4
Good Friday and 8 games were played around the country, the match I was at – Essex v Middlesex had a really good crowd.

Isn’t it funny what can happen when you … More The Royal London Cup – Star Men Watch – Round 2

I’d hoped for 3 things before this day started, for Ryan Patel to get his maiden century, for Surrey to be all out promptly and for the Essex batsmen to start well. 2 of those things happened, Patel was playing in only his 22nd First Class innings and wow he played a superb role. He … More Surrey v Essex -Day 2
I joined Surrey as a member in 2015, largely with The Ashes in mind, in the years since I’ve formed a soft spot for Surrey in spite of being an Essex fan. This then gives me mixed emotions when the 2 teams meet. I haven’t been able to give up that membership, there’s something I … More Surrey v Essex – The defence of a title starts!
Finishing off a wonderful Summer of cricket! … More My Favourite Cricket Moments 2018 (September)
I’m going to try to do this one differently, get the writing done before I tackle the photos (I took over 4000, they’re going to take some time!). I joined as a Surrey and England member before the last home Ashes, over those years I’ve managed to get to a few home games and therefore … More Surrey v Essex
