As he tucked his pads under his arm and picked up his bat, the rest of the players were already making their way to the change room at the back of the ivy-covered Members Stand. The Sheffield Shield season was beginning that week in Brisbane. Queensland would play New South Wales. Like a slow thaw following winter, cricket’s arrival heralded the approach of summer. Chappell felt compelled to make some sort of speech on the eve of the season. Despite his prowess with words he wasn’t much for the ‘rah rah’ stuff. He believed bowlers bowled and batsmen batted. If they needed motivation from speeches then there might be something wrong. When he spoke it was direct and honest which is why his mind was being tugged in two directions: what 20170814_3204 Chappells last stand_TXT.indd 1 15/8/17 10:42 am he wanted to say to the team that might set the tone for the year, and what he really thought of their chances.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • St George District Cricket Club Was Founded As a Subdistrict Club in 1911 Under the Auspices of the NSW Cricket Association, the President of St George DCC Being Mr J
    St George District Cricket Club was founded as a subdistrict club in 1911 under the auspices of the NSW Cricket Association, the President of St George DCC being Mr J. Lister. Hurstville Oval at that time was not an enclosed ground - despite persistent pressure on the Council. The original area of Hurstville Park (of seven acres) was bought from the McMahon Estate in the early years of the century, and vested in the council. The ground was fenced, planted and developed by cricket lovers over a period of several years - and in 1911 famous Australian left-hander Warren Bardsley brought an invitation X1 to Hurstville Oval to play the St. George district team, on the official opening day. St George began playing in First Grade in 1921 and then competed in 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade competitions. They also entered teams in Shires competition in 1926 and continued to play teams in that competition from 1926 to 1947 and again from 1965 to 1968. A 4th grade team had begun to play in 1934 and has continued to the present with a break from 1940 to 1948. With the introduction of 5th grade in 1969 there was no further participation in the Shires competition. Currently, St George DCC Inc fields teams in the 1st to 5th grade competitions, the Poidevin-Gray Shield (Under 21), the A.W.Green Shield (Under 16) and the 1st Grade Limited Overs competition. St George’s best known player is of course Sir Donald Bradman who came to the club in 1926 and later stayed at the Rockdale home of then club secretary Mr F.
