Hope you managed to stay dry today. The weather promises to be better on Saturday but the state of grounds may have a lot to do with if games are played or not.

Only four of the club’s X!s had a match last week. The Ones undoubtedly put in their best performance so far this season, just narrowly missing out to Cheam by 9 run! Sultan 76, Moore 42,Mughal 39, Anas 46 and 9-0-74-3. The Twos won at home against Chessington by 6 wickets, Yash Vora 63 Nik Malhotra 33 Baz Lineker 10-2-33—3, Ajmal Niazi 9-1-28-3.
They have secured their promotion spot for next season. Well done the 2s. The Threes won by 7 wickets against Sinjuns, Bhogadi 33, Wise 46, Shukla 52. Unfortunately the Fours lost by 6 wickets against Putney. They retain their spot at the top of the division but need a win tomorrow to be sure of promotion. Good luck.

Games this Saturday again all start at 12 noon except the first team which is again at 11.30 am and are all the last games of the season. Where have those 18 weeks gone?
At Sandilands the Ones host Chipstead, the Twos are away to Godalming, the Threes host Croydon CC at 1743, Fours away to Wimbledon and the Fives host Epsom.

Other News; The eagle eyed of you will have noticed that the First XI have been docked points for poor pitches which puts in doubt our ability to remain in Division 2. We have appealed once over this, and intend to appeal again over the more recent decision by the league. Its a peculiar situation where action is taken and the club does not have a clear sight of the umpire’s pitch reports, or indeed a club’s personal representation at an appeal hearing is not allowed!

On to brighter things reminder that tomorrow night 7.30 pm the club will be holding its awards night with presentations to various individuals throughout the club The bar will be selling pizzas to aid the celebrations.

See you there,

Roger
