  • Gloucestershire Vs Sussex Sharks Vitality Blast – South Group the Bristol County Ground, Bristol Sunday 4Th August Delray Rawl
    Gloucestershire vs Sussex Sharks Vitality Blast – South Group The Bristol County Ground, Bristol Sunday 4th August Delray Rawlins hit a superb unbeaten 35 as Sussex Sharks secured a three-wicket victory over Gloucestershire at the Bristol County Ground with two balls remaining. Gloucestershire players protested in vain when they incurred a six-run penalty for a slow over-rate, leaving the visitors to score seven off the final over. Rawlins then kept his cool to knock off the winning runs, finishing with five fours and a six from a 17-ball innings which ultimately proved decisive. Ian Cockbain had earlier scored 61 not out, sharing in stands of 67 and 38 with James Bracey and Benny Howell for the third and sixth wickets respectively as the hosts raised 159-6 after being put in. Having successfully chased to beat South Group leaders Kent by nine wickets in their previous outing, Sussex again elected to field first. That looked a good decision once new-ball bowlers Ollie Robinson and Reece Topley accounted for openers Miles Hammond and Michael Klinger in quick time as Gloucestershire's top-order again fell short of expectations. Gloucestershire enjoyed a much-needed stroke of luck when James Bracey was dropped at cover point on one by Rashid Khan off the bowling of Chris Jordan. He certainly made good his escape, posting 30 from 26 balls and staging a restorative stand of 67 in 9.1 overs with Cockbain for the third wicket. Sussex deployed spinners Khan and Danny Briggs in tandem in an attempt to stem the flow of runs, a ploy which accounted for Bracey and the dangerous Ryan Higgins and caused Gloucestershire to lose crucial momentum during the middle overs.

  • SCHOOLS REVIEW 2015 by Douglas Henderson Wicket-Keepers Get A
    SCHOOLS REVIEW 2015 by Douglas Henderson Wicket-keepers get a pretty raw deal as there are no statistics to show their keeping skills. However, when a wicket-keeper has far more more stumpings than catches, that really is something. George Lavelle, of Merchant Taylors’, Crosby, was still only in Year 10 but after three years in the XI he has taken 40 stumpings to 32 catches. He was captain of Lancashire Under-15s (champion county) and has won several awards. He would probably also have scored 1000 runs had he not being playing for his club on several Saturdays. Clearly a name to watch. Not many cricketers read the Laws of the game. The Spirit of Cricket is admittedly only a pre-amble rather than part of the actual Laws; in a woolly sense it is (part of the Laws) because Law 42 says that The responsibility lies with the captains for ensuring that play is conducted within the spirit and traditions of the game, as described in The Preamble – The Spirit of Cricket, as well as within the Laws. Anyway, the Spirit of the Game describes it as “cheating” or “sharp practice” to seek to distract an opponent either verbally or by harassment with persistent clapping or unnecessary noise under the guise of enthusiasm and motivation of one’s own side (my emphasis). Many people, admittedly of an older generation, can’t bear watching schools cricket any more because of the nonsense that nowadays goes with it: ludicrous noise, clapping, shouting, everybody called Buddy or Fella, wides applauded with cries of “well bowled”, catches greeted as if you’ve just won the football World Cup etc etc.
