Looked like the start of our summer! And the middle of our summer as well....there's no missing the Kiwi accent on the coach...what part of the magnificent NZ does he come from?
Watching from Canada where we're trying to revive an old club. Sounds like its been a real tricky start to the season with the weather! Loved the video though mate. Flying back to the UK next week and hope the weathers good to get a game in at my old club!
Good to see the entire field looking more lush than the attendees of a 1920s cocktail party and at least a whiff of cricket before the heavens opened. Always frustrating, reminds me of when I played and we had to come off early when bad play stopped light. Stranded just 93 short of yet another century.
Lots of rain all over cricket england, so a least you managed something Pecky. Please tell the young leggy that he has to pitch the ball up, otherwise the batsman have time to"slog" the ball anywhere, and it wont do the young mans bowling averages any good. Hope the rain has gone now for the rest of the summer. Had to rain for the Coronation didnt it
Was looking good there till the rain got too much, & at least you’re getting out on the field to actually play some cricket- over friendlies & league games we’ve had 5 in a row called off in Sussex without even getting on the field to play 😡
Thank you for the shout-out, James! We loved it!🙂 Go, North Wheatley-Leverton!
The keeper stood back with a lid, magnificent 👌

Fair play to him for stepping in as keeper. Everyone thinks our job is easy till they have to do it!
Love the teams coming out at start Pecky- you kept that one quiet 🤫

Good effort guys - yes, days of p.ssing it down here in NZ!
Eyup. Proper cricket this! Straight bowling and straight bats. Hope you get a tune out of Mr Mendelsohn (sorry, I couldn't keep that one in!).
Delightful work, sir
Happy to see brendan parker not playing in an anston shirt

Anyone remember the drought we had last year and how it meant the end of the world was nigh?
I understand this was the first 1st XI game cancelled due to weather for nearly two years!
