No mate, played Lanchester ( or Lancashire as one of our lads thought) lost toss had them 90 odd for 7 but they got 160 odd. We had a canny team of batters out but lost our big guns to a lad who just put it on the spot scraped to just over 100 to sneak a batting point. Disappointing really
 
I'd rather be out first ball in the second innings of a game than the first.

Getting out for nowt and then going to field for 45 overs is absolute hell.

I was an opening bat who didnt bowl. I remember one game batting first and it was supposed to be a 2pm start both both teams and umps were there early and we got a start ten minutes early.

I was out first ball of the match and the thought of being out even before the match was due to start and only having fielding to look forward to was canny depressing :-(
 
You can't call yourself a cricketer till you've had a golden like!!! Then you've got Purcell :lol: he's been out without facing a ball now that is a cunt

agree with this. At least if you out having batted 2nd you can get changed and have a few or in some cases go home (never done that myself like but seen a few p[eople do it)

When we played them they had one quick opener, one medium swinger and a lad who bowled first change who bowled Colly style allsorts. I think the Colly one got half of this forum out that day!

If anyone leaves before end of a game they deserve a serious word in the ear. Team game and all that.

Lad that got the wickets had been warned for bowling beamers ! Had to come off a short run just kept hitting this spot that made the ball keep low done our best 3 batsmen.

Never left a game before the end, ever, normally can't get us out the bar anyway :lol:
