A Somerset village cricket team gets hit for six http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-18399462
i remember captaining our school team in an extraordinary match once. we only ever played one innings each in those days and at one point we were 1-7!! we ended up 11 all out amazingly we still nearly won the match, with our opponents sitting on 10-7 but it wasn't to be i seem to remember lots of low scores though - we barely threatened hitting three figures on many occasions! we were normally quite happy with a score of 60+ which was often enough to win.
I went boxing at the Lads Club as a youngster and my only fight lasted 15 seconds and that included the count!
......i played in a school match for wymondham college in about 1959, so would be under 15's. we were away and we bowled them out for 11. can't remember the school, wasn't you was it super. i took 7-2 and we were told off in the next assembley for not giving our opponents a chance.
Now let's see! Supers is 30 now, so in 1959 he would have been...............a twinkle in his father's eye!
...........oh well, but it's good to see the standard of cricket in norfolk schools has not changed in 37 years.
