- The 2020 Cricket season is due to start this month, but sadly it won't due to the COVID-19 pandemic! Here's a short video to hopefully keep the spirits up while we wait indoors for better times...... Enjoy, and please share to any cricket lovers out there.
This channel has become a blessing.
To wax eloquent for a second, whilst perhaps not as loquacious as John Arlott, Tony Cozier etc, the sheer affection the commentator has for his team, and the wider game, takes me back to a kinder and, if you will, gentler time, when th spirit and the joy of playing was of the utmost import. You've given the teams you commentate on genuine personality and allow those of us who follow the game a measure of shared connection with Sanderstead CC.
It's like a televisual drama - with added boundaries...
What a lovely, and indeed eloquent, thing to say! It has always been my aim to paint a picture of everything good about grass roots cricket - something, like you, I grew up with in gentler times. Delighted you have found us and hopefully we can bring more cricket soon! Cheers 🍻
In these sombre days, thank you for helping us to remember that all things will pass, and that cricket will again be played. And the very *best* of it will be 'village'.
Well said! 👏
A great channel, celebrating the very best of those who may not have the most talent, but have the greatest love of this wonderful game. Turning out week after week, despite knowing that there's a reasonable chance of you making a complete a**e of yourself, is testament to these great sportsmen.
I played at a high level from 14 to my early 40s. It was deadly serious (and until you've played in the Yorkshire or Bradford Leagues, you probably don't understand how serious cricket can be). Then age caught up and I gradually dropped down the teams and the leagues and regular bloopers like this crept into my game, but I only finally retired at 64 when I couldn't run, couldn't see well enough to bat or catch and was too stiff to bowl. The cricket became more "village" and i actually enjoyed it more because funny things like these happened. It became fun.
(But despite not being able to see, after retirement, they asked me to umpire for the 4th XI!)
Hail Sanderstead Cricket Club. You may be southerners, but you're a great bunch. Greetings from Yorkshire and good luck for the coming season.
From a cricket tragic in the antipodes let me tell you I've seen everything in this video in games I've played in - on the other side of the world!!! Cricket is the greatest game, ever...bar none.
The catch at 1:50 is actually really impressive. Got to love village cricket haha.
I think it speaks to the aspirations behind all the juggling in the rest of the film
I didn't even think I liked cricket until I started watching your channel! You've awakened SO many nostalgic memories for me... watching village cricket as a child - memories I didn't know I had until I started watching. Thank you SO much for making recent hard times a little bit lighter. Keep doing what you do. A very heartfelt Thank You. xx
Wow - thank you so much for saying this! It’s lovely to hear how simple (but fun) village cricket can have such a positive impact on so many people . Glad you found us and hope you stick around. Cheers 🍻
@@SandersteadCCTVIts exactly what I said earlier..this makes everyone love cricket. I am sitting bored in Lords members stand then saw this and almost fell off my chair.
Proper club Cricket. 23 people just jealous they don't play for Sanderstead.
Thanks - glad you like it!
Laughing like a drain at some of the 'quality action' in this video. If I could press and register 2 likes, I would. Many thanks for all your videos. Just one bit of confimation. The umpire seemingly flat out at 1.25 - made a full recovery?
Thanks - yes the Archbishop (Richard Carey) was fine, he just overbalanced running backwards to get in position
I wish I played for Sanderstead CC... I would make up half of these "highlight" reels ;)
Brilliant. I've never seen so many commando rolls in a game of cricket before. Keep them coming.
I’d rather watch matches like these than a test match
In these tough times,a laugh is always welcome...very funny thank you so much for sharing.
can we have a johnny lock funny moments?
Longcock is becoming an internet sensation, has he got an agent?
this has literally made my morning, was so upset with the passing of my Nan but then i watched this and it gave me a laugh (obviously still upset), i love this channel so much, thank you so much for the great videos :D
Thanks - sorry about your Nan, but glad we softened the blow. Cheers!
Awesome!! Reminds me of my Sunday cricket team!!
In fairness to the batsman who pulled it onto his stumps, it looked like he really middle it 😂
Absolutely smashed it!
From middle to middle
Many thanks and good wishes to all at Sanderstead. I hope you're all very soon able to again play the game you clearly love so much. To my surprise I find I get as much pleasure watching you lot as I ever did watching England...more in fact than at any time since watching Sussex play at Hove back in the innocent years of my early teens...thanks again
Dave
Great to hear - thank you for the kind words. Cheers
Talk about funny but its thanks to the bloke at the end of the camera that you now have a world wide following and that's great. Today most of NZ went into a lockdown of #1 with the exception of Auckland & they're on #2 & our borders are still shut thank goodness. All i can say is that I hope you continue to play next season & have a bloody good time in your off-season & drink lots of cider etc.
Thanks Bede - stay safe and rest assured, we will be drinking lots of Pilgrim beer during the off-season
This is something unearthly and very enjoyable. Please keep posting. I like more when you have your special commentary :)
Thank you!
Just what I needed today Dan, thanks for putting together and hope we get at least one or two games in this season!
brings back a lot of memorys
Super memories Dan...Regarding the title...I admire a man who doesn’t ´´over sell’´ a video🤦🏻♂️...when it comes to Sanderstead’s Sunday team one wouldn’t want to raise expectations. Hope everyone over there is in good health and good humour. All the best from Le Lockdown in Versailles.🏏🏏
Thanks Mike - all good here, hope it’s bearable in Versailles. Judicial use of the bracketed “maybe” took the curse off the oversell I thought....
Absolutely splendid, Dan! What a barrel of laughs. I am so happy that I discovered your channel. Just a pity this old codger will never get to attend one of your games in person!
Well, if you do there’s a beer in it for you!
@@SandersteadCCTV That would be smashing! I'll have to get my son in Amesbury to pop over to one of your games in my stead, though. Can't afford the airfare from down at the edge of the universe.
There’s some absolute filth being bowled in this video. Could take out shares in Pukka with that many pies!! 😂😂
Good luck to all of you in the UK stay safe and well in these interesting times may we all come back and see what mischief you can get up to soon until then thanks for the giggles from Aus 🇦🇺👍
Its a pleasure - glad to be of service
Stay safe, all at SCC :)
This made me laugh so much. It was upsetting to see Lucy's delivery being dropped. Bless her
She's used to it - makes her bowl straight!
@@SandersteadCCTV Hahahaha :-)
I love to watch your village cricket videos during these difficult times. They really cheer me up ! Thank you
I wish I could like this more than once! Magnificent😂
Haha! Thanks - there are plenty more like this in our Sunday Cricket playlist
@@SandersteadCCTV It completely epitomises Sunday cricket. I love it, keep it up!
As someone who played village cricket for years and never even made it into the first team, my full appreciation for everything that you do. I related to this so hard.
My thanks, Sir.
This Vlogs and re runs have been keeping me going! Great work!
brings back funny moments when i played still laughing funny
Just what I needed. Best wishes to you all at Sanderstead. Stay safe and can't wait to see new matches as soon as is possible...
Thanks and stay safe
Dudes that do stuff are all champs.
It's practically a fable.
brings back some funny moments when i was playing in aussie
please stay well and healthy from down under
Thanks - you too!
If you want to bamboozle the Aussies { I am one } send this team for the next Test . Brilliant , we love your videos and Thank you for posting .
Geez that cricket ground looked small.
Really took his frustration out on those stumps
Fuck me, were they all pissed?
Many famous incidents
Terrific fun, which is why cricket lovers play the game however old they are!😊.
Absolutely!
old time cricket at its best aussie dwcc
This is so strange that I don't know what to say. Coming here cold, I see men of all ages and one girl playing a young man's sport, mostly ineptly. I guess it's some kind of club. I just can't imagine a similar scenario in America. Well, golf perhaps. Maybe I'll take a peek at some other videos.
Congratulations - you’ve just landed on a prime example of English eccentricity at play. Village cricket is the very embodiment of Englishness, nay Britishness, and something which, as you say, you probably won’t find in America. It is what makes us great! 😂
I love this channel. I've watched 4 videos and I already know some of the players and I'm starting to eel a bond for the team. I think I might be a fan.
Thanks for finding us - there’s about 150 vids to see you through..... 😂
@@SandersteadCCTV It's great for your club to have someone capable of putting content of this quality out, also great for the viewers. The highlights are great but if you have some full games to watch, I'd watch. Especially games featuring the side depicted in this film.
Denzil Vallance hi - each match has a 30 minute highlights as well as a few that also have shorter 10 minute versions. I suggest you go to the YT channel and look at the playlists which is where the full highlights can be found. I don’t have full games - it’s just too much content to store. Cheers
@@SandersteadCCTV The 30 minute ones are good. Gives a good enough feel for the game. Thanks
The beauty of village cricket is that not only is the sport highlighted but the people of the village as they go about their daily lives, take for example the Archbishop going around picking up rubbish & scattering rubbish bins around to his hearts content. I like many of your watchers have no idea if he's a man of the cloth or just some village identity with nothing else to do. Then we were introduced to the local "Lord" at least I think he was described as that, he was dressed properly with a tie, (something I haven't worn for years), and he sat somewhat apart from the rabble lol. Another worthy of a mention was the dog taking the woman for a walk, this happens all over the place and obviously the human's involved have no interest in cricket at all but I wonder if a ball went in the dog's direction what sort of fun the cameraman would have in describing the dire situation. Regardless I like many others will be taking time out from my heavy schedule - Yea Right - to concentrate on the comings and goings at the Mill.
Delighted that you are spotting these little bits of colour and humanity that form part of richness of not only cricket but our local community. Such things can also be great fun.... thank you!
Well thats how you enjoy the game
I need to be member of this club 😂
This is the best! Cheers from Oz.
Bell ring - ' bring out your dead!'
Anyone know what video that was from?
It’s originally from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
I miss cricket....🤦♂️..stuck here in the snow clad himalayas and lockdown 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Cricket at its finest - pathos personified. These videos are wonderful.
Thank you - glad you’ve found us
should be called dads army
Watched vid so many times. Please make sure this an annual thing. It is so much fun.
Will definitely do more of these
Thanks to all who have produce, your TH-cam channel it’s been a real tonic during this last lockdown. Really enlighten my nights while the wife and kids watch complete crap on the tv...... please keep it up.
Very fitting song
A comedy of errors.
Proper. Village.
You stay safe as well....looking forward to the next batch of videos whenever that may be.......
Brilliant. Thanks for sharing. All of who ever played the game have experienced some of this. Stay safe guys and girls.
Nice one guys
Full toss - dolly - Ohhhh! Some great fielding in there though. Lower leagues cricket - roller left on the wicket -marvellous.
Bloody funny
Brilliant 🤣
How's that
need more
I wish I was there play with you all!!!! Cricket is and always will be the best sport in the world!!!!!
Brilliant
Hilarious. How human we all are. Laugh out loud. Thanks from lockdown in nz
Ha really funny. It’s good to laugh during these troubled times.
Gerry’s run “straight out of Scooby doo” has to be the most accurate description of anything, ever
I love this channel so much and since COVID I have missed coaching and playing cricket and watching these vidoes have given me a right laugh sometimes and in this video the one I like best is when del bowl it and the other player smashed it into the stumps 😂😂, but it’s always a pleasure to see when a new video from you is in my subscription box.
Also as you probably will be I can’t wait to get back now and like I see on Instagram not long know hopefully.
All the best and keep up the great work 🏏😀
Thank Sarah - very kind of you to say. hope you have a great season - we can’t wait!!!
@@SandersteadCCTV thank you and I will have a great season and I know I am itching to get back now !!!!
Absolutely gutted about the start of the year. Hope this is all over soon and get the cricket season up and running.
This is exactly the cricket club I wanna be playing in after I retire 😂
Lovely stuff. Thanks Dan et al (who's Al?)
the longcock double roll gets me every time
It does keep getting better - still can’t work out why he did it and what he was tying to achieve - he doesn’t know either 😂
Cheers Dan. Looking forward to the future adventures of SCC
Brilliant made me laugh so much! Thank you 🤣
Cheered me up this morning, great video, Thanks!
This is one of the best i have ever seen :D, Thanks a ton for this one.
3:11 to 3:25 is pure Gold.
And now i also miss the benny hill show🤦♂️
can't wait for another season of hopefully "peak" village, Covid19 willing.....
Nor can we - I can only stretch the archive so far.....
the bloke laughing at the big fella at 2:29 kills me lol
Josh didn't make the list is a miracle!!!
Del in over half the clips
I thing we need a dell double teapot compilation...
Something i dont like this time of the year and make me feel sad, is that my local cricket season in Panama is about to finish, but really makes me feel happy at the same time is to begin following Sanderstead CC matches every Saturday... Sadly due to Corona Virus season in Panama have being suspended 1 month earlier than usual and who knows when we will see Sanderstead back in action.... :( but there will be always times for cricket... be safe guys !!!
Thanks - and you too, stay safe
Bravo on a great video
thank you!
Can you please tell me which game is it where the lad retires hurt and the incoming batsman needs his gloves? Quite fancy watching it again!
It is vs Woodpeckers an early 2019 Sunday game
3:14 my new favourite! We’ve all been there or seen something similar, but just love that he gets hit with the ball to add insult to injury! 😂 #GoldenVillageCricket
Agree - the clip has it all. I'm going to feature it in a "slo-mo" montage set to classical music at some point - you really get to see the emotions on the players faces when slowed down
Excellent edit, like a bit of yakety-sax 😉 However, a bit disappointed not to see the ‘balanced bail’ incident?
Saving that for the next comp - probably featuring more “quality” or unusual moments - might need to switch music, though..... bit of classical maybe?
@@SandersteadCCTV Can I request a highlight reel of dropped absolute sitters, preferably in slow motion to the tune of Barber Adagio for Strings?
Fearsome Mumbler nice idea! I’m on it.....unfortunately the footage I have is at 30 frames per second so super slo-mo is a bit clunky but I’ll make do. I actually prefer Albinoni’s Adagio so May use that instead - will try both and see which works best. Great idea, though - thanks!
@@SandersteadCCTV Yeah something properly sad will add to the comedy of it, haha I'm giggling to myself just imagining it!! I'm sure all of us who's been on the receiving end of a 'double teapot' stare will relate to it :)
The last one will never be beaten 😂
MAGNIFICENT!
Thanks - and thank you for the Ko-fi, much appreciated!
Thanks for that what a laugh 😂
Brilliant, thank you so much for bringing a smile, oops a hearty laugh, to an old gimmer stuck at home during this awful time.
Glad to be of service - is "old gimmer" the us equivalent of our "old codger"?
@@SandersteadCCTV yep sure is!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣👏👏
I wish i wanna get any kind of job offer me from Sanderstead cricket club. I love to watch cricket so much.
😂 we don’t have jobs - we’re all volunteers and club members
@@SandersteadCCTV I think this club is a part of heaven. The atmosphere is very pleasant.
Armanul newouz Remon haha! I like that..... 🙏
@@SandersteadCCTV Your forehead is born such a beautiful place. If i have a lot of money, oneday i will go to your club for visiting.
I'd buy the DVD
