Great start to our 2024 tour of Devon with two wins out of two! Big thanks to Ottery St Mary CC and Paignton Cricket Club for their hospitality. Looking forward to playing Sidmouth Cricket tomorrow!

Make that 3 out of 3! We rounded off our 2024 tour with a five wicket win over Sidmouth Cricket, Jack Moore’s magnificent 44-ball hundred leading the way as we chased down 271 in only 29 overs. Another brilliant tour done, can’t wait for next year!

We go again next Saturday!

And the Old Mill Player of the Week is… Henry Hunt, for his 111 vs Curry Rivel at School Lane on Saturday, which also earned him a place on this week’s Somerset Batting Honours Board. Nice going Henry! 👏👏👏

Brilliant thread this. Maco was 🔥

Congrats to everyone who made it onto the honours boards. Brilliant to see our very own Kevin Russell, 66 years young, at number 4 in the bowling!

Summer of 1979. A few months before, when he made 138 not out in the World Cup Final, he played the same shot off the last ball of the West Indies innings, smashing a Mike Hendrick delivery for six into the same stand. Best batsman I have ever seen.
