Wish these games/teams were more competitive… Some of us actually do go to see a good game, not just for the eye candy and gambling….ijs
After Saturday’s display by Flatt’s Victoria, they shouldn’t be allowed to play in the Eastern County. They were just pathetic! I can’t recall a game where so many batsmen were bowled hopelessly. They were just swinging at the ball recklessly! They need a good coach to teach them some discipline. They were great the first few overs of the day when they had St. David’s in trouble. But they just lost their steam as the innings went on. But the real disaster came when they went to bat.
Congrats to St David’s on your League and Eastern County Cup successes!
