Horley’s fifth game of the year comes against top of the table Alleyn who are newly promoted and looking very strong! With the timed cricket element of the year starting this week it’s always preferable to be batting second and luckily we were! This meant we could control the approach to the result of the game and naturally we wanted to win so we went hard at the total. Chasing a good score for 45 overs it was going to be challenging. Could we do it with the small amount of overs left to win the game?

Good game. I played at this ground once for The Mote CC against Dulwich, in a Sunday friendly. I have two main memories of that day, one good and one bad - the good one was the unbelievable tea, quite possibly the best I ever had in some 35 years of playing. They've got a number of Asian players and the WAGS had done a load of curry dishes, it was delicious. The second memory that's not good was of warming up in those nets in the background, I managed to top-edge a ball into my mouth, cue swelling and loads of blood and pain before I even went out to bat.

Thank you. Yeah we weren’t on the Dulwich ground but it’s the same place. Good teas is Egham, they are outstanding but doesn’t sound as good as what you describe there! Haha yeah that’s put a bit of a downer on it. I had a similar one, when I scored my first league century a few years back I was obviously thrilled… went out to field in the second innings and had a ball pop up and smack me in the eye socket… that put a dampener on that day too

I was the one enquiring about Ben Remfry recently and you pointed me in the direction of East Grinstead CC. Amazed to see that he's returned, just seen your tik-tok upload. Great news!

I remember well. Well I’m pleased to say you won’t need to look at EG anymore as he’s back where he belongs ❤️. Immense addition to the squad and will really really bolster our batting significantly

Really enjoyed this game, seems like a even game with both teams striving for the win. Hard to come in and accelerate against strong bowling straight away.

@HorleyCricketClubTV 13 күн бұрын

Absolutely. It was a great game. We came away feeling very good about it albeit frustrated, bowled well for 55 overs and then scored at a significantly faster rate but just couldn’t quite overcome that 10 over deficit.

That was a really good solid performance chasing a challenging total. I think you will look back and smile at that result. Some more good batting from your big players.

@HorleyCricketClubTV 13 күн бұрын

Absolutely, we really did look back and smile. To practically chase that score with 10 overs to spare was absolutely outstanding! Just annoying that they could play on for so long due to the massive difference in overs timed cricket allows

Great work by the lads to stick at to try and get the win.Timed cricket is a bit of a mystery here in NZ.Not sure if it would take on here.

Strange that the spinners bowled for so long for both teams. Looked a seamers pitch from ball one and it never dried out.

Yeah not a bad ground, fast outfield, a bit bobbly but yeah the wicket was a bit unpredictable

Good news to hear that timed cricket is coming to an end. I first played in England 30 years ago and many people were over it back then.

I can’t recall anyone saying they love it in the league. It’s beyond me why we still play it!

I hate timed cricket. A good evening game between two good sides.

@HorleyCricketClubTV 13 күн бұрын

It’s very very frustrating. It wouldn’t be as bad if it was a bit fairer. Just don’t think that 10 overs is fair… that’s 60 balls!!! Run a ball that’s another 60 runs. Just a huge amount to overcome if you want to get a win

@DavidGay-mu1yo 15 күн бұрын

Also do not like this timed cricket. Just means that most games end up as draws, when the run chase is over 220. Great batting again from Reagen, CP and Ben. I really despise the way CP was out. Just dont remember this during my playing time. Fair play seems to have gone. Brilliant game of cricket though, and super content Andy. Wouldnt like to drive through London with so much time needed, for a short distance. Berlin is no different. Roadworks seem to spring up overnight here 😢😅

@tomdilkes7546 15 күн бұрын

CP was unlucky I genuinely don't think the bowler has done anything other than get a hand on it he's entitled to do so it's not like it was a mankad I have been out that way and got someone out by getting a finger to it always a risk you knows there

@HorleyCricketClubTV 13 күн бұрын

It certainly does when chasing such a large total from a team that’s had an extra 10 overs to bat!! Yeah those guys batted nicely, CP was soooo unlucky! It was a very innocent dismissal to be fair, bowler actually went to catch the ball but missed it and it bounced off his wrist onto the stumps… looked completely unintentional. It was a great game and bodes very well for the season that we won’t be taking any game lightly and we will do everything we can to get that full allocation of points!

@HorleyCricketClubTV 13 күн бұрын

Totally agree. It was completely unintentional. Just bloody unlucky

I don’t know off the top of my head which one this is however I will say the umpires are in the best position, we are off at a angle so it’s hard to be absolutely sure.

This is English wickets in a nutshell. Some will jump like off a trampoline and next ball will be a grubber. You can NEVER play off back foot, like ever because of this.

That was definitely the key on this wicket. Couldn’t trust it at all. Weirdly, after the rain it really settled down a lot

@bobburroughs6241 15 күн бұрын

Good effort guys - never going to get the runs in 45 overs. I see that they were on 204 after 50 overs. As you say Andy, a nonsense format.

@HorleyCricketClubTV 13 күн бұрын

It was a stonking effort. In a normal game that would have been a comprehensive victory but when you can be give 10 overs less than an oppo it’s about the best we could do. Great positive play from the squad though… bodes well for the season ahead.

Guys, will you please stop messing around with the scorecards. You've gone from a light green which was difficult to read, to a yellow which was equally difficult. It's not a Dulux colour chart, settle on two colours with sufficient contrast, like the blue and red and stick with them. I'm sure younger viewers will wonder what the problem is, when you are in your seventies, your eyes need all the help they can get.

I really apologise. I don’t do the edit but I have passed your comment on. I believe we change the colour of the card to go with the colours of the club we are playing. We will look into nicely contrasting neutral colours
