Ashwell win an ABSOLUTE THRILLER! G Chiswell needed 15 to win with 3 overs & 5 wickets in hand. D Crossley bowls a 0.5 over of 4 wickets, and 1 dot ball. Many injuries in our fielding added some humour

Huge thank you to Great Chishill CC for the spirit of the game today. Many smiles and chuckles from both teams. A reminder of the reasons we watch the rain clear and play the game.

A very strong looking Ashwell Cricket Club side play AT HOME tomorrow. Get down to top up the tans and see some leather being chased. Reg Redfern (C) Alec Taylor Alex Griffin George Griffin Graeme Hodson Hugh Carling Ian Plumley Richard Young Rob Young Tom Daniell Tom Robinson

Very civilised preparations for today’s game underway. Neither groundsman particularly enticed by the circuit training session in the outfield. #RollsOnTheRoller

Runnners and riders take the field as Ashwell Cricket Club take on Takeley Cricket Club away at a beautiful looking ground. Ashwell win the toss and will take a bat.

Very tidy bowling from Takeley has us 4-0 from 4. Glorious day unfolding here.

G Griffin picks up a full length ball and like Els with a 8 iron, hits a beautiful fade over mid off for 6. 16-0-5.1

Noooooo G Griffin goes. Low full toss toe ended to mid off. Dark green trees and no sight screens might now have helped.

Apologies for lack of tweets. I was required to bat. Then we fielded, lose by 9 wickets to a friendly and solid Takeley Cricket Club #GoodCricket

Ashwell CC at home to Linton today. First hot summers day of the season. Pitch looking pretty firm and outfield cut.

Alex Taylor gets the innings up and running. 18 off the 4th over takes us to 30-0 from 4.

52-0 from 6. Taylor and Carling opening up

Hughesy replaces Alec. 105-1 from 12, looking promising

155-3 from 18, Reg & Dom looking classy out in the middle!

Delayed start Thriplow CC at 2.30pm guess we may as well make ourselves useful

HELP!!!! We have had a boundary rope delivered to us, what is the best way to reel it in? The only options that we can find are at silly prices! @CambsCricket ECBCA Cambridgeshire Hertfordshire coach development Hertfordshire Cricket

Nothing else needs to be said about yesterday’s win than Rob Young needs to have something in the village named after him. #LegendStatusAcquired

Bring back Vince!!!! #saidnooneeverapartfromReg

RIP Bob Willis Excellent character and had a true passion for the game.
