Hi everyone
Sorry to change things yet again, but the game is now off. The oppo captain has just called me to take up the offer to call a no result and share the points. As I had offered, I couldn’t really force them to play or forfeit. They are experiencing severe difficulties with transport.
Many thanks for your patience over the last few days.
Thanks
Shayne
Pitch 2. Just a quick update on where we are with tomorrow’s game. We have a full side that should beat the oppo. James and Pete come with injury related performance caveats, but not have 2 fielders creates enormous gaps and short batting line up and almost always ensures a loss!
So I’ve asked the oppo whether they’d be happy calling a no result this afternoon due to the tube strike, compounded by the terrible weather forecast. This wouldn’t impact our standing in our conference division – we would still have to beat a strong oppo in next week’s match to finish second.
Fro reference, the team is now:
Justin Roy* - confirmed
Rob Bastin+ - confirmed
Jon Webley – confirmed
David Morahan – confirmed
Darren Tempany – confirmed
James McDonnell – confirmed
Pete Alexander – confirmed but walking wounded with some bowling ability
James Gleadow – confirmed as walking wounded to take up space in the field
Possible – Peter Hollman (if weather cancels Luke’s game), Shayne Rees (if can get out of a conference event and cycle in)
Thanks for making the effort so far. I’ll let you know as soon as I do about the game.
Thanks
Shayne
