If this is the same guy who made 51 last week for NEK he should NOT be rating himself either. Terrible cricketer!
on what basis is someone that makes 51no and has represented the association for the past 2 seasons a terrible cricketer !
please explain DKL ? from ?[/quote]
It was an ugly 50 and even a one G.McGrath has a 50 to his name so every dog has his day. Just saying that a guy who averages only 22 as a batsman should NOT be playing Association Matches. Perhaps only if they're desperate?

over the past 2 seasons he has averaged 30 with the bat and taken over 30 wickets and the year before he one the association B grade bowling , so thats a little away from a terrible cricketer, wouldn't you say? especially taking into consideration he has been the club president for the past 2 seasons going into his 3rd. I think he would be the first to admit he is not the best cricketer in the league but he is continually working on his game and trying to improve , surely you cant ask anymore at this level.
I think there are a few people on this forum who continually sit behind their computers and are determined to put others down and are not prepared to even say who they play for, or which club they are associated with?
This forum should be for those to reflect, socialise and discuss the weekends matches, of course we should joke and sledge ect... thats part of cricket, but in my opinion to bag others who you barely know or you have probably not even spoken to before is cowardly and not constructive.
This is my thought for the day.
good luck to all tomorrow, hopefully the weather stays away![/quote]
Lads....
At the end of the day he hit an unbeaten 50 against us and won the game for his team. You've got to congratulate him on that.
