2nd XI - 2022


I can exclusively reveal that The Queens Head on CLS Front Street has just reopened for the first time in over two years which seems to be main topic of conversation here.:D

I've heard in the cellar there's a broom cupboard, in the broom cupboard at the back corner, underneath a pile of magazines is a shoe box. Inside the shoe box is a small leather tobacco pouch. Inside the tobacco pouch is an empty box of matches, and inside this box of matches is our new club shop! Opening times 11am-11.15am every third Tuesday of each month with more than 30 days in it. Unless that's a match day, then it's shut.

120-8 off 19

Crawshaw McAlindon and Sals all couple each, Killeen Crawshaw and some spinner with no name.:lol:
122-9
124 all out another one for Sals.
Surprised that it's roughly run a ball in all 3 innings to date on the short boundaries at Ropery Lane.Is the wicket slow and sluggish 🤔 Any player running off to the Riverside with his haversack and bat in hand 🤔

It looks a bit sluggish although most dismissals were caught in the deep.
Durham 2-1 looked like Crawley clean bowled by the spinner.
Durham 15-3 off 4. One bowler Cohen? is too fast for them .He clean bowled McKinney and the bail finished on the boundary line next to the sight screen.:lol:
42-3 off 8
51-3 off 10
Doneathy 17* Crawshaw 15*

68-4 off 14 getting bogged down with the spinners.
Back in the day mate that's all you needed.Team bag included 3 G&M bats from Stan Seymour sports shop, 3 prs pads which meant fastening buckles on the way to the crease,2prs RH spiked gloves and 2 small pink soap dishes 😉

D or C out 🤔
Crawshaw was stumped.
Doneathy just hit a six into The High Crown car park....and out next ball.

Doesn't look like there's been any strategy to chase down 124 🤔 Seems like it's been an old fashioned Tom Burn cup tie 😉
