Weekly Update Parnell Cricket Club Incorporated - Established 1858 Update No.171 – It Is Spring!! Preseason Game – Parnell XI vs Auckland Grammar School 1st XI Saturday, 27 September, at Cornwall Park no. 2a. Parnell 282/2 (40) Ben Rae 33 (20), Flynn McGregor-Sumpter 53 (68), Jack Parsons 50 rtd (55), Cam Neal 45 rtd (33), Aniket Parikh 55* (40), Harry Miller 35*(24) Auckland Grammar 125/10 (31.5) Max Dudson 21, Flynn Dudson 31, Jamal Todd 25, James Hook 1/26 (4), Aniket Parikh 1/34 (8), Pete Hickman 1/22 (5), Nikith Perera 3/10, Ashwin Haran 1/4 (1), Cam Neal 1/1 (1) RESULT: Parnell won by 132 runs Wonderful to get such an early start to the season. Huge thanks to Cornwall CC for allowing us the use of the ground and access to their clubroom. Shore Road Reserve was not available – still in transition from rugby. Our openers, Ben and Flynn got away to a brisk start and all who batted for us made consierable hay. Good opportunity for some newcomers to make their debuts for Parnell. First, Jack Parsons batted very well – coming across from Grafton, Jack is already well known to us from his EDCA rep. days. Cameron Neal batted powerfully – originally from Hawkes Bay, he made his name in the Bay of Plenty before playing for Howick Pak last season. Cameron’s uncles/cousins all represented Marlborough at both cricket and rugby – legends in that part of the World. Eddie Commins has come to us from Eden Roskill and performed very competently behind the stumps. In the chase, AGS struggled after their opener holed out at cover off a full toss from James Hook, the first of the UK contingent to arrive here. But Max Dudson put his head down and though wickets fell at the other end he played some excellent shots. His elder brother, Flynn, also put up good resistance as did Jamal Todd (son of former Auckland Ace Corey and grand son of Waitakere stalwarts Randall and Mabel Todd). From there the middle and lower order fell away succumbing to the sublties of our spinners – Josh Milne, Aniket Perera, Pete Hickman and Ashwin Haran – all of whom had some success. Summing up, the day was a great success – excellent to meet up with the AGS lads and to blood our newcomers. Flynn McGregor-Sumpter Cameron Neal Jack Parsons Harry Miller Max Dudson Flynn Dudson Josh Milne bowling to Max Dudson Eddie Commons James Hook bowling to Max Lockie at the TJC Fundraising Clinic for Auckland Grammar 1st XI’s Australian Tour Ian Trott, Auckland Grammar’s Head Coach, yesterday held a coaching clinic in the TJC – 2 to 5pm – well attended and highly successful! Lockie Ferguson came for the final hour, answered questions and the boys were able to demonstrate how fast they could bowl under his scrutiny. To the observer, NZ is not going to be short of excellent pace bowlers in the years to come. Some real talent on display – I was impressed by the accuracy, yorkers were bowled regularly and very little was short pitched. And, just as importantly, the batsmen facing them did so without fear, got in behind the ball, kept the yorkers out and practiced constructively. Thanks indeed Lockie and congratulations to Ian and the organisers. And Ian is particularly grateful to Phil Horne for making the TJC available. Another Clinic is being held this afternoon – I am sure it will be equally successful. Lockie and Ian Trott with the Attendees This Coming Weekend Whilst the Season proper is still a couple of weeks away, our Prems are heading to Hawkes Bay for a T20 Tournament and, thanks to Counties Manukau Cricket, a T20 Tournament is being held at Manurewa. Hopes that this T20 be held at Shore Road Reserve but transitioning from rugby to cricket is not yet complete. Whilst the rugby training lights have been removed considerable returfing is required and needs to be bedded in. Here is hoping that the weather will be kind! Work Wanted!!! Meet the UK Boys – and they Want to Earn Money! Luke Trimming – ph 021 253 7887 Ed Bartlett Luke and Ed have paid their own way here to play cricket at Parnell this season.

Jennifer Spence Waiuku 2123 New Zealand [Hope Country Life’s Editor awards Jenni with the bottle of Pol Roger for the “best letter of the week”, but no reaction to date from Country Life, nor a bottle for Jenni! d.] Ashes - Steve Smith Out-Bradmaned Bradman? And How Others Compare Well, Smith was close but certainly not better despite being truly remarkable throughout this series. Let’s compare these two batsmen – Bradman in the 1930 Ashes series with Smith in this 2019 series just completed –, 7 innings each: Ist Test DG Bradman Trent Bridge 8 & 131 SPD Smith Edgbaston 144 & 142 2nd Test Lord’s 254 & 1 Lord’s 92 & dnb - injured 3rd Test Headingley 334 Headingley did not play 4th Test Old Trafford 14 Old Trafford 211 & 82 5th Test Oval 232 Oval 80 & 23 Total 974 runs at 130.20 Total 774 runs at 110.20 But how did some of the greats start their Test careers? All had to weather nerves on debut, justify selection and, then, maintain the confidence of the Selectors to keep picking them. Some never got a second chance – Rodney Redmond, 107 and 56 on debut was not chosen again. Others failed dismally – poor Ken Rutherford debuted in the West Indies – but some excelled from the outset, just look at, and put in perspective, the following “1st 10 Test Innings” chosen at random from the “greats” (NZers highlighted/Parnell in full): TEST BATTING - 1st 10 INNINGS Not outs in red. Herbert George Neil Bert Len Don Martin Stewie Sutcliffe Headley Harvey Sutcliffe Hutton Bradman Donnelly Dempster 64 21 13 58 0 18 0 11 122 176 153 32 1 1 21 25 83 8 112 82 100 79 4 136 29 39 4 57 14 112 37 80 5 114 17 9 12 40 58 62 59 112 34 101 100 58 0 27 115 10 178 88 4 123 64 53 176 223 23 54 5 37 206 120 127 0 2 116 364 8 75 8 33 11 151 20 17 131 80 12 813 714 687 617 617 607 545 534 90.33 71.4 98.14 61.7 61.7 67.44 60.56 66.75 • Herbert Sutcliffe – with 42 year old Jack Hobbs, with whom in his 1st 10 innings vs South Africa and Australia put on successive opening stands of 136, 268, 72, 17, 5, 157,110, 283, 36, 63, and 126. Unquestionably the greatest ever opening pair. In Australia they had to contend with Jack Gregory, Australia’s then equivalent of Jeff Thompson – acknowledged as one of the greatest fast bowlers. Sutcliffe eventually scored 4555 Test runs at 60.73 before handing over to his protegee, Len Hutton, a fellow Yorkshireman. • George Headley – Jamaican, his debut in 1930 vs England in the West Indies (these 10 innings( then 2 tons in Australia and a century in each innings vs England at Lord’s in1939. Post WW 2 he played 3 more Tests (2 vs England, 1 vs India) between 1948 and 1954. Overall – 3190 at 60.83 in 22 Tests. • Neil Harvey – from Victoria, debuted vs India hitting 153 in his 2nd Test, Jan. 1948. Then 112 vs England at Leeds. Most of these runs came on the 1948/49 tour to South Africa. Overall – 6149 runs at 48.41 in 79 Tests, the last in 1963. • Bert Sutcliffe – Parnell, Auckland, Otago, ND and NZ – named after Herbert above, our greatest batsman, not withstanding Turner, Crowe and Williamson.

  • Indian Premier League 2019
    VVS LAXMAN Published 3.4.19 The last ten days have reiterated just how significant a place the Indian Premier League has carved for itself on the cricke�ng landscape. Spectacular ac�on and stunning performances have brought the tournament to life right from the beginning, and I expect the next six weeks to be no less gripping. From our point of view, I am delighted at how well Hyderabad have bounced back from defeat in our opening match, against Kolkata. Even in that game, we were in control �ll the end of the 17th over of the chase, but Andre Russell took it away from us with brilliant ball-striking. Even though I was in the opposi�on dugout, I couldn’t help but marvel at how he snatched victory from the jaws of defeat. The beauty of our franchise is that the shoulders never droop, the heads never drop. There is too much experience, quality and class among the playing group for that to happen. As members of the support staff, our endeavour is to keep the players in a good mental space. But eventually, it is the players who have to deliver on the park, and that’s what they have done in the last two games. David Warner has been outstanding. There is li�le sign that he has been out of interna�onal cricket for a year. His work ethics are exemplary, and I can see the hunger and desire in his eyes. He is striking the ball as beau�fully as ever, and there is a calmness about him that is infec�ous.

Lawrence Rowe ‘He was a hero here’ IT’S EASY to feel anonymous in the Fort Lauderdale sprawl. Shopping malls, car yards and hotels dominate the eyeline for miles. The vast concrete expanses have the effect of dissipating the city’s intensity, of stripping out emotion. The Gallery One Hilton Fort Lauderdale is a four-star monolith minutes from the Atlantic Ocean. Lawrence Rowe, a five-star batsman in his prime, is seated in the hotel lounge area. He has been trading off the anonymity of southern Florida for the past 35 years, an exile from Kingston, Jamaica, the highly charged city that could no longer tolerate its stylish, contrary hero. Florida is a haven for Jamaican expats; it’s a short 105-minute flight across the Caribbean Sea. Some of them work at the hotel. Bartender Alyssa, a 20-something from downtown Kingston, is too young to know that the neatly groomed septuagenarian she’s serving a glass of Coke was once her country’s most storied sportsman.

  • Weekly Update – 24 October 2009
    Parnell Cricket Club Incorporated - Established 1858 Update No.174 – Black Caps Pipped Again Unbelievable – Deja Vue – Black Caps Pipped Again! Call it what you will, the Tie at Eden Park on Sunday, in the series deciding 5th T20, was the most extraordinary coincidence. Again, NZ lost fewer wickets to England, the winner of the “super over”. But who makes the rules by which these games are played? Consider these logics: CRICKET IS A GAME BETWEEN TWO TEAMS – OBJECT TO SCORE MORE RUNS/TAKE MORE WICKETS THAN THE OTHER TEAM • Why then not award the game, when tied, to the Team that loses the fewer wickets – on this basis NZ would have won the ICC CWC (lost only 8 wickets to England’s 10) and yesterday’s T20 (T11) – NZ lost 5, England 7 wickets. • But why, in the ICC CWC, was England able to contest the “super over” – it had lost all 10 wickets. Should have been end of story! • Or, if a “super over” has to be bowled, then wouldn’t it be more logical for the batsmen to be those who were not out or still to bat? Once out means OUT? And bowl only a bowler who hadn’t used his T20 quota. In the interest of fairness and logic! Having got that angst off my chest, what a remarkable game yesterday! Talk of coincidences – and quite extraordinary that the game even took place. We had waited all day Saturday for the forecast rain which, most thankfully, held off. And Sunday morning was fine – when the rain did come, around 11am, it came! The whole of Auckland was blanketed – not too heavy but steady and the wind had dropped.

  • Weekly Update – 24 October 2009
    Parnell Cricket Club Incorporated - Established 1858 Update No.186: 2019/20 – Club of the Year! The 2019/20 Season may have ended a fraction prematurely but, for Parnell, it was a resounding success. Over it’s long history, 163 years, the Club has won many championships and produced some of New Zealand’s finest cricketers but few seasons have produced the results and accolades gained in 2019/20. COVID 19 has meant the postponement of the Annual Awards Dinner but Auckland Cricket has just announced the trophy winners and a superb collection of silverware comes to Parnell and our Players: “Club of the Year” – the Simmonds & Osborne Trophy awarded to Parnell Cricket Club Parnell last won this Award 27 years ago. The Trophy dates from 1905/06 when it was awarded jointly to City, Grafton, North Shore and Parnell Cricket Clubs. Parnell was the sole awardee in 1909/10 and North Shore won in 1910/11 but, then, till 1926/27 there were No Awards made. Reinstated the next season, From then it was awarded each year to WW 2 with Parnell winning in 1933/34. No awards during the War but from 1946/47 it has been presented annually again and Parnell won it the next season,1947/48. Next, and represented by Eastern Districts (Parnell, Orakei, Ellerslie and Panmure CCs), we won in 1959/60. The District Scheme ended in 1966 but Parnell did not win the Trophy again until 1992/93. That season Mike Simpson, our present Patron, was both President and Chairman. It has taken another 27 years to win again.
