Season’s Reflections: Evening Cricket yahooovercowcorner.wordpress.com/2025/10/21/sea… Possibly the best evening cricket league in the UK is the CheshireCountyCricketLge O40s competition. Many participants have gone on to play county O50s. Its a mystery why every league in the country doesn’t adopt a similar format.

Ex Monton pro Simon Harmer takes 6fer against Pakistan in Rawalpindi to help South Africa to an 8 wicket victory.

Great to meet Don Topley (Toppers), who spotted my MCC sweater as we were leaving the Optus Stadium this evening & enjoy an all too short chat about the game. Enjoy the rest of the tour sir.

All stalwarts of the Manchester & District Cricket Association too. Congratulations gentlemen. 👏

Oh wow! I played against him (& some of the other SA greats), at The Wanderers, on a Dragons CC tour 40 odd years ago. 🙌

The Government can still say YES to screening for all high-risk men. If we act now, we can save lives. Add your name today act.prostate-cancer-research.org.uk/a/say-yes-to-s…

RIP Graham Vaughan ex Worsley Cricket Club.

Walking cricket sessions also available at Abraham Moss, Blackpool, Eccles & Wythenshawe leisure centres & Thatto Heath ARLFC, with women only groups at Bolton & Old Trafford - see Lancashire Cricket Foundation for details.

Very sad to read this. Went on tour to South Africa with Andy & Dragons CC many years ago. RIP AB
