Tis not often a sporting contest in which I am involved makes the “national media” – well The Times cricket blog, whose author just happens to also play for The Times’ team – so I can’t resist a little link. Sadly, it doesn’t record our sterling victory over the Daily Mail on Saturday, but rather our abject defeat. I would add that we very much got the worst of a wet pitch.
And me? Well I did hit a rather nice four through point – as well as I’ve timed a cricket shot in many a while – in fact it skipped through deep point’s legs before he’d even reacted. I was amused by his explanation to his captain: “I just didn’t expect it!”
