2016/17 Annual Report “Some plan b’s are smarter than others, don’t drink and drive.” NIGHTWATCHMAN NATHAN LYON Supporting the nightwatchmen of NSW We thank Cricket NSW for sharing our vision, to help develop and improve road safety across NSW. Our partnership with Cricket NSW continues to extend the Plan B drink driving message and engages the community to make positive transport choices to get home safely after a night out. With the introduction of the Plan B regional Bash, we are now reaching more Cricket fans and delivering the Plan B message in country areas. Transport for NSW look forward to continuing our strong partnership and wish the team the best of luck for the season ahead.

  • Third Wins in Row for Marple and Nantwich
    Cheshire County Cricket League 2013 SEASON NEWSLETTER NO. 6: MAY 25 Neston lead by 17 points Third wins in row for Marple and Nantwich AFTER opening the season with two defeats, Marple have recovered to such an extent that Saturday’s outstanding six wickets win at Grappenhall was their third in a row and moves them up to fourth spot in the ECB Premier League. Just for once, the Marple spinners took a mauling at Broad Lane (Andy Greasley 1-88, Joe Cash 1-71) with Grappenhall piling up an impressive 259-6, Josh McClelland 68 not out and Mike Sambell, 51. Marple were up for it and their outstanding 19 year old Tasmanian Beau Webster smote 118 including 20 fours. He was aided by Mark Bennett, with 68 in as third-wicket stand worth 158, followed by Andrew Hall, 34 not out in a response of 261-4 with six overs to spare. Neston stay top with the only unbeaten record after outplaying Hyde at Parkgate, although they were unable to beat their east Manchester visitors in a game which started officially 15 minutes late with League sanction after a major motorway delay. Neston’s batsmen took the Hyde bowlers apart led by the consistent Will Evans, 85, back from Australia Jack Smith, 70 and Luke Camden also 70 – off 53 balls. The hard-working Dan Cranmer claimed 4-86 and Tom Young 3-95. Hyde worked hard to keep their innings intact before closing on 196-9, Danny Berry 32, Dave Fitzsimmons 31, Paul Stimson 4-37, Andy Clarke 3-62.
