Hi all,
Hope this message finds you all well. Just thought i'd give you all an update on the upcoming sessions and games over the busy summer months.
Firstly, for those that played this past Sunday well done, it was a great win and a super team effort all round. Special mentions to Finley Simmonds, he bowled 6 overs 3-16 opening the bowling, and George Hill who managed to bowl 1 over which was a maiden (of which there was only 3 maidens in the entire game) but also hit a chanceless 96* from 90 balls allowing the team to chase 146 with 10 overs to spare.
Secondly, could everyone please make sure they have updated their availability and make sure that it is as up to date as possible please. We are going to try and select the teams for the summer games in advance, allowing people more chance to book holidays etc, I understand things come up and the original section might change but we are going to try and select the teams early due to the high amount of games that we have.
Lastly, I'm trying to get clearance to allow everyone to come to the game on the 25th July on the nursery ground. I think this would be a great chance to get everyone together, have a squad photo and cheer the side on, among the potential for some other things on the day. Once I have more info on this I will let everyone know but please try to keep this day free if possible. Its the only game at Lords for us this summer so would be great to get as many here as possible and try to showcase what a talented and supportive group we have assembled for this years team.
Thanks everyone, enjoy the ashes and i'll be in touch soon
George
