Quotes: "He's usually a good puller - but he couldn't get it up that time." Richie Benaud "Man, it don't matter where you come in to bat, the score is still zero." Viv Richards to Sunil Gavaskar at Madras 1983. Gavaskar had decided to come in at no 4 for that Test. But Malcolm Marshall got Anshuman Gaekwad and Dilip Vengsarkar for ducks. Gavaskar had to walk in at 0/2 and made 236 not out "Cricket is basically baseball on valium." Robin Williams "Yorkshire 232 all out, Hutton ill - I'm sorry, Hutton 111." John Snag "It's a funny kind of month, October. For the really keen cricket fan, it's when you realise that your wife left you in May. " Dennis Norden "Cricket needs brightening up a bit. My solution is to let the players drink at the beginning of the game, not after. It always works in our picnic matches." Paul Hogan "I don't think the press are vindictive. They can write what they want." Mike Gatting, when asked whether he feels the selectors and himself have been vindicated by the result of a Test "There is a widely held and quite erroneous belief that cricket is just another game." Duke of Edinburgh "I think we are all slightly down in the dumps after another loss. We may be in the wrong sign...Venus may be in the wrong juxtaposition with somewhere else." Ted Dexter, explaining away a Test loss. "For when the One Great Scorer comes to write against your name, he marks not that you won or lost, but how you played the game." Grantland Rice 1880 -1954 "It's always good beating the Australians -- and it's even better to beat them out there. But the Ashes is just one thing. Ask me for the biggest highlight when I'm lying on my deathbed -- then I'll tell you." Sir Ian Botham "I can't think of a life without cricket" -- Sanath Jayasuriya looks forward to retirement with trepidation, 16 August 2008 |

Monday 13th June 2011 Welcome back! The 2011 Season is now in full swing. We have a big squad this year, including some new faces, so lets hope it can be one of our most successful seasons yet. Season 2011 match reports can be viewed here, as well an archives of previous year's reports on the left. Week on week you can download the match reports for each game and we'll do our best to add the odd photo and video clip. Useful links: In the meantime enjoy some of this classic commentary from Aggers and Vaughan in the recent test match versus the Sri Lankans.
