With only 1 game surviving the rain this week, 7 of the 8 teams can still make Covid Cup Finals Day. All to play for in Round 3 #T20 #NHS

Congratulations to High Roding CC who overcame the elements and Stock Cricket Club to win the Covid Cup Final hosted by Aythorpe Roding CC yesterday

Congratulations also to brothers George and Archie Halls who were voted joint “players of the tournament” by Aythorpe Roding CC President Brian Hockley MBE after helping their team prevail as leading tournament run scorer and wicket taker respectively

More importantly though thanks to Stock Cricket Club for co-hosting and High Roding CC Rayleigh CC Springfield CC Hornchurch Athletic Cricket Club Great Baddow CC Stanford Le Hope CC and all the umpires who combined to raise over £1,000 for meht.nhs.uk/charity/about-… #NHS #T20 #CovidCup

Today we travel to Aythorpe Roding CC for a friendly fixture. Hoping for a dry day, some good cricket - and a few socially distanced refreshments! #LetsDoThis 🏏

Thanks Barry Hockley for doing a fantastic job installing the new bench at the #homeofcricket that is Aythorpe Roding CC! All set for the returning crowds next season!!

Fantastic afternoon at Hylands Way yesterday despite a comprehensive defeat at the hands of Hornchurch Athletic Cricket Club . Brilliant hospitality after the match too......and boy those pizzas were good!! See you next season lads

Essssex! Get in there! Congratulations Essex Cricket . A team that is greater than the sum of its parts...notwithstanding the legend that is Sir Alastair Cook. Great management from top down. No coincidence that Ronnie Irani took the reins in 2015 and the trophies have followed

Fantastic W G Grace impression! “Kohl’s stands there and can't believe what has happened. For some reason the decision is reviewed but it's bowled” Jog on son! Umpire reviewing Bowled surely a new low for DRS! He’ll be on the T Rippon Cricket panel in no time! #INDvsENG

How can you take a “competition” like this seriously? That points system will not identify the best - so what’s the point? ICC a come up with that on their own….or draft in Kermit and Miss Piggy as special advisors?

Huge congratulations to our main man Mani De Silva for winning the ⁦T Rippon Cricket⁩ Young Player of the Year award 2023. We hope that bad back recovers for 2024!!
