what a great game at saintfield yesterday. Set 250 to win armagh needed 9 off two balls and won with two sixes. this game was a credit to section 2 with the ground and wicket in outstanding conditions.
I'm sure I speak for all Ulster Cricketer forumites when I pass on our congratulations to Roy Torrens on his much-deserved award in the Queen's Birthday Honours List. Those who have followed Ireland's fairytale ride in world cricket in the past ten years will be fully aware of Roy's huge contribution. What a pity there wasn't another for Kyle McCallan who has been a role model for all young sportsmen and with over 200 Ireland caps continues to be one of the leading lights on the field.
Dear, dear NCU another bashing in the Irish Senior Cup. I must say a lot of people were expecting this to be the year but with North Down and Waringstown out it would be a major surprise if Lisburn and CI progressed too far with their poor ISC records. Once again it may be a NW team that carries northern hopes. What's gone wrong with NCU cricket?
tips triple aspect nap sandown 325 kiwis + west indies both 2 win 20/20 today. ps tayto dont no bout anyone else but hard to bit yur lip when you owe 40£ bet . + hope we are singing say goodbye to holywood on way home but hard to bet on it .
Hi Peter - take your point but as usual there is a question behind my postings! Grammer schools appear to have the monopoly in this instance and it would appear to be ever thus. Can't help remembering that Adrian McCoubrey wasn't "nominated" and he turned out not too bad. For the life of me I cannot remember who Cambridge House nominated that year or what ever happened to him.
Andy Kennedy,
There is no doubt that young Van de merve is an excellent player, but which school does he go too? I may be wrong in this and someone please feel free to correct me but are the players not nominated by their school teachers for this squad,
interested to see the Ulstar Schools trial sides on the "NEWS". No mention of Jason van der Merwe of Muckamore - playing regularly on 1st team and 174 last wek against Larne 2s.
I would just like to wish Lisburn all the best in the final of the 2008 20/20 after beating us last night.
They certaintly are a different looking Lisburn side than we played against a couple of years ago. The foreign contingent has certainly added some depth to bowling and batting. I can see them continuing their good start to the season
Congrats...
A massive well done to the Irish squad for yet another huge upset !! How many more upsets shall it take until the ICC invest significantly in cricket here instead of pumping more and more cash into Mugabes pockets ??
ballymena beat waringstown in a really tense game at the lawn. needing 2 of the last ball stuart kidd ran in and ballymena ran 2 leg byes thanks to a missfield. really poor fielding by waringstown cost us and some poor bowling. but i'm not going to take anything away from ballymena the tailenders batted very well and they played brilliantly. they were really enthusatic in the field! i'm am annoyed though because we had the game and then lost it! can't wait till next saturday (north county at the lawn) they might hammer us but we could make a special performance!
Dundrum / Cliftonville is off today ( first of many ) , tips EWAY STORYLAND 430 EPSOM / CAPTAIN DUNNE 3OO / IVE BACKED SEA OF STARS ANTEPOST 16/1 TOO WIN THE DERBY SO WILL HAVE SAVER EWAY GAN AMHRAS . GOOD LUCK
"Perhaps you are right Ryan, maybe I am being a little naive, but I am not one for standing still." - tell that to Donald McKee who ran you out in Twenty20 match Rodders! LOL
section 1 is starting to take shape and is looking every bit as tight as last year possibly even tighter. A few interesting results with Laurelvale bouncing back from an early defeat to win two in a row. Muckamore with 2 out fo 4 and derriaghy off the mark last night with what looked like a very convincing victory. Although Lurgan have only played one league game i ave a feeling that if they can get their strongest team out more often than not they will be right up there.
Typical, sunshine all week and now the forecast is terrible for tomorrow
