With the 2026 season now assigned to the history books, let’s take a look at how each team performed and which individuals excelled this summer 🌞

Both Sunday XIs secured 2nd place finishes in their respective leagues, ensuring promotion for next year 👏

Both Saturday XIs will also be promoted following respective 1st and 3rd place positions. The 1st XI won their league title, winning every game they played 🤩

The midweek teams both enjoyed enjoyable seasons. The 1st XI made it to another Plate final, whilst the 2nd XI also had a strong run in the cup 🏆

Onto the standout individuals.
Pasan had an outstanding season with the bat, fighting off the challenge from Joe and Will to secure his name on the honours board for the first time 👑

However, Joe wasn’t to be demied. Locked in a fierce battle with spin-twin Charlie, Joe came out on top and finished as the leading wicket taker for the 6th year in a row 🤯

Pasan added to his trophy haul, recording the most amount of fielding wickets this season 🫴

There were a record 8 centuries scored this summer, the standout being Ollie Jackson going huge with our 2nd highest ever score recorded at 160* 😱

There were also wickets-a-plenty for the usual suspects, but a standout 6fer from Tom Noble took the biscuit with a devastating spell of 6/19 👺

On Sunday, we capped off another fantastic season with our annual presidents day 🎉

Not only is this a great chance for all club members to come together by playing cricket, giving out awards and enjoy a few cold refreshments, but it also allowed us to raise money for this years chosen charity: Cardiac Risk in the Young

A charity that means a lot to our club, any additional support would be greatly appreciated ❤️

On Saturday, we had the great privilege of hosting the wedding vowel renewal party for one our club sponsors and great figures within the club, Sully & Jaks 💍

The Sullivans have been amongst the biggest supporters of Harrold Cricket Club over the past few years and provided us with a huge amount and it was amazing for us to be able to be a small part in their special day ❤️

An amazing day was had by all, with the guest list full of Harrold Players and spectators alike, all who enjoyed a cracking day with great company (and a sore head the following morning…)

🏏 Final fortnightly round up 😢

With the end to the 2026 season in sight, there’s a final three games to recap before we dive into some end of season content🎉

With our Saturday campaigns all wrapped up, the two Sunday XIs entered the final fortnight of the season with two respective promotions up for grabs 🤩

The Sunday XI needed 1 win from their remaining 2 games, which seemed a tall order after being bundled out for 81 away at Lutonians, a formidable venue for those who’ve experienced it…
Despite that, the boys rallied together with a 5-star bowling and fielding performance, restricting the opposition to just 71 all out. With promotion secured and a bank holiday the next day, it seemed only right to celebrate at the wonderful Fox b**r festival 🍻
The following week’s season ender against Flitwick saw 10 extremely hungover men (and a boxer preparing for fight night) somehow secure a convincing victory, even after being 0 for 3 after 5 balls of the game. Pilot Byrne survived the hatrick ball (despite having one glove on) and together with head BBQ chef Pritch helped us post a respectable 205. Captain Peckham then starred with the ball, bamboozling the Flitwick middle order with stunning figures of 5 for 10 👏

The 2nd XI made the long trip to face title rivals Offley, knowing 4 bonus points would secure promotion, but a win would see them take home the division 6 title. Unfortunately victory and the title were a step too far, despite a wonderful 70* from Ben Saunders. However the 9 wickets secured in the first innings were enough to secure us the required bonus points and promotion for next season 💪

🏏 The run-in is hotting up 🔥🥵

With just two weekends left to the go in the season, there’s a lot to play for at HCC 👀

Saturday saw the first XI secure a record setting victory by 314 runs as they’re now one game away from completing an unbeaten season. A first HCC 50 for Tim set the platform, before a pair of 90s from Micky & Will saw an imposing score of 375 set before the bowlers dismantled the opposition.
The 2nd XI unfortunately fell short away against the league leaders but still have a hope of promotion of results go their way 🙏🤞

The Sunday first XI took a massive step towards securing 2nd place, beating promotion rivals Olney. A crucial middle order partnership between Charlie and Craig set the game up before both then chipped in with the ball (and Jamie bowled “the best ball he’s ever bowled”) 👏
The Sunday 2nd XI also had a dominate display, set up by a 122 runs opening stand between Ben & Pritch, who went on to record a superb 97. Opening bowlers Rick and Luke made some early inroads with the ball, before ‘Magic Man Max Bowman’ came on first change to take his first HCC 5-fer, getting his name on the honours board and putting his side back to the top of the table 💪

Also, as it was missed last week, a special mention to Ollie Jackson. When opening the batting for the 2nd XI last Sunday made a jaw dropping 160*, the second highest score in HCC history 🤯

N.b. By way of an apology for not mentioning Ollies knock before, a not so slick bit of feidling from the admin has been included…🥴

HCC 1st XI vs HCC OBs 🏏🤩

Sunday saw the first iteration of Harrold’s 1st XI taking on a select team of HCC legends, and what a day it was!

Harrold 1st XI were victorious in a fiercely fought contest, but more importantly the day was about brining the past and present of our great club together.

A massive thanks to everyone who helped organise, provided meals or even just came down to watch. With an incredible mid game tea and delicious post match meal provided, you can be sure that players and spectators alike will be queuing up to attend next years fixture ❤️

You’ll want the volume up for this one HCC fans 🔊🔝

Not sure it’s possible for a cricket club to have a better 7 days 😮‍💨

It started with our midweek first XI cruising through their plate semi final, making it to a 3rd consecutive final to be played on Tuesday the 4th of August at Kempston Hammers. A blistering knock from skipper Freddie saw victory secured in half the allotted overs🤩

The Saturday first XI then saw their league title secured with a month still to go in the season. Another well rounded performance resulted in a 137 victory. The 2nd XI enjoyed similar success, a 2nd century of the season for Dan helped tighten the grip on a promotion place this season 💪

Whilst celebrations were enjoyed on Saturday, there was work still to be done on Sunday, with the HoC hosting an absolute nail biter. Facing some excellent spin bowling, Harrold scrapes their way to 171 thanks to Jamie’s late order knock of 30. Despite this, the game looked lost when Langford needed just 7 runs with 3 wickets in hand. Up stepped magic man Jamie again, removing the set batsmen and his teammate with the next ball, before big Fred secured victory with just his 2nd ball of the game to send the home fans wild 👏
The 2nd XI were on the wrong side of their game, but made it back to Harrold in time to cheer the 1st XI over the line ❤️

🏏 MATCH WINNING SPELL 😮‍💨

The Saturday 2nd XI’s hot run of form was at risk of being ended, after being bundled out for a below par 157. Pressure was on the bowlers to keep the unbeaten streak going…

Up stepped Tom Noble, producing a masterclass of new ball first bowling. The off-stump was sent cartwheeling on 3 separate occasions as Tom picked up career best figures of 6 for 19 and secured an emphatic victory over local rivals Riseley 💪

A spell that will live long in the memory of those playing & watching. Well bowled Tom, here’s to many more 🍻
