Fishcake gave me the idea in another thread. He said "this thread is turning in to a cricket diary" and I thought that would make a great thread. Instead of clooging up the highest scores and wickets thread lets just talk about our net sessions, our matches and our goals. Ill get us started.

Played well in the nets last week. My bowling was accurate and aggressive batsman found it hard to slog me and I took a peach of a wicket bowling a round the wicket googly. My batting was a little rusty but I've just bought a new bat so I am not worried that I dodn't play great with it first time. i think by May I will be used to it.

Keep posting lads.

Excellent to see. Day 34 in the Big Brother.... LOL I'll probably post something tomorrow when I've played, but this could be fun.

yay can i be the first one(other than 70DS) to acctually make a diary post

well here goes
 
24th january 2006 (yesterday)
 
me and a few mates when down the local nets, which are currently so wet that pond life seems to be forming LOL
 
anyway it wasnt quite as wet as usual and it did seem to be turning a tad
 
i got my mate with a googly third ball and then couldn't seem to bowl a decent googly after that
my leggies seemed good though
tried a few zooters which worked better than i thort they would, i dont know if its the way your ment to bowl em but, o well
 
the highlight of the net tho was when my mate smacked a cover drive, which bounced off a metal poll that keeps the net up, and then hit my leg
 
overall was a good net, and i cant wait untill my indoor nets for my club
 
 
o yeh and please can we not turn this net into a big bragging session, because i think its a great idea and it would be a shame to ruin it

Yup, I'll rename it to 'How's Your Season Going', that way it's less ambiguous.

And as for how my season is going, well I'll be keeping my 'Return To The Crease' blog up to date for you all.

I think ours is the 20th April although we might be having a random charity match (for our club, how ironic) and Mark Ramprakash is apparently coming, but I'm a bit suspicious! LOL
 
When's your first U-15 match, Robbie?

Well I have had one lot of nets so far, My bowling was wayward and did some damage to my back so first nets in and i'm working on a new action. My batting was erm, interesting. Some good shots in with some ... not so good shots.  So plenty to work on there for me.

Cool. I think the U-15's start pretty much the same time as the seniors at Kinross.

I played today and was defeated outright. We batted our first innings last week and were all out for 41 lol i made 5. We bowled them out for 167 i got 1/25 off 6 overs. And today bowled out for 93. I came in at 9 and made 9* in about 12 overs. Chances of saving outright were looking good until a bad call be me ended a solid partnership. Our no 11 then last 1 ball lol.

had another net today, i bowled really well, especially at the start, when i got my m8 (whos pretty good) out bowled 3 times in 4 balls, unfortunatly the net session was stopped for a while when posh people on private land (right next to nets) desided to start shooting birds with riffles, we could here the pellets landing on the pitch covers, next to the nets. was quite funny but scary at the time

School nets next Thursday where I am going to try and stake a claim to get in to the firsts where if Fishcake trains hard, I will meet him this summer representing each of our schools in a grudge match. The sledging will be fierce and the batting will be ferocius. He will bowl a bad ball and I will heave him for 6. Cant wait Fishy!! LOL You had better be in the firsts next season. (or seconds if I fail to get in to the firsts)
