They always say the second season is harder than the first…
Another year of Seniors Cricket, my first as a properly qualified member of the team. (I played in 2021 as a permitted “under-age” player!).
The teams did well, again. 4th XI finished (distant) second to a resurgent Kent, 2s & 3s both qualified from their regional groups, only to fall at the first (1/4 final) national knock-out round. The 1s had their National Final postponed to April 2023.
My own season reached unexpected levels — I started in May opening the bowling for the 4th XI, but by late July was batting at no.4 (and scoring runs) in the 2nd XI!
