Barwell Cricket Club

🚨GW 9 FIXTURES 🚨

It’s that time of the week again!

Thursdays games looking a tad doubtful with the rain we’re having here at the minute but let’s remain optimistic!

Saturday has all 3 teams in action looking to chalk some wins back on the board after a disappointing Saturday last week. Seconds and Thirds are back at home so plenty of cricket to go and watch!

Go well all! 💙💛

📈GW 8 TOTW📈

8 weeks down and unfortunately not the weekend of cricket we were hoping for!

Team of the week prevails! Some top performers across the teams this weekend with a couple of resilient knocks, plenty of gusto bowling and another week at the top of the wicketkeepers pile for .

Top performers are a couple of all rounding young lads with doing bits with bat and ball for the Firsts and Hayden Kjng battling against the odds to take some wickets and score some runs in a losing effort for the Thirds (vast improvement on last week!).

Well played lads, into GW 9 we go!

💙💛MATCH RESULTS GW 8💙💛

Not quite the weekend we wanted but never the less it wasn’t as bad as it could’ve been!

The Firsts stint at the top of the league was short lived as they stumbled against Loughborough Carillion to draw the game in the last over. A strong batting partnership between and .bett19 laid a solid foundation before the rain came and game Carillion a target of 180 to win with the tying it up in the last over. Unbeaten streak continues but definitely not the win the firsts were looking for.

A mammoth defensive innings from allowed the 2s to stretch out long enough for the rain to salvage some points in a match that was abandoned against a strong Bitteswell side.

Unfortunately for the Thirds, despite Hayden’s heroics they couldn’t quite get over the line against Great Glen and slip to another close defeat.

Thursday also happened but let’s not talk about that!

Onto next week! 💛💙

⛈️😬OPTIMISTIC TEAMSHEETS GW8⛈️😬

Rain, rain go away…

Here are how the teams line up for GW8! Some weddings, birthdays, work and a Honeymoon have meant it’s been tricky getting 3 teams out this week but Barwell finds a way!

1s are at home today hoping for a break in the rain to continue the streak, both 2s and 3s are far, far away looking to return to winning ways after last weeks defeats.

Good luck to all the lads and enjoy the games of cards! 💛💙

⛈️GAMEWEEK 8 FIXTURES⛈️

Looking like it could be a soggy one but fixtures nonetheless!

Both midweek teams in action tonight with the Firsts at home, good chance to de-stress from the week and watch some cricket!

Saturday (hopefully) sees all teams in action once again with the Firsts trying to go 7 in a row against at home. It’s been a mega start to the season for the Firsts and I don’t think any of us were expecting to see them right on top of the pile!

The Seconds are away at inform looking to try and salvage something from this season, plenty of lads got a start last week, just missed out on converting those chances!

And last but not least the fun bunch are on the road to to face their 2nd XI in what should be a close game!

Good luck to all teams!

🔥TOTW GW7 🔥

Despite a mixed bag of results, plenty of players holding up a hand to be selected in this weeks TOTW!

Cream of the crop was .o.x after taking 3-27 with the ball and then steering the ship home with a quick 37 (32) to break Cropston hearts once again this year. Liam is sponsored by

The real question is will any of the other keepers in the club usurp at the TOTW spot?!

😬GAMEWEEK 7 RESULTS😬

Not quite the results we were looking for last weekend, Seconds and Thirds both struggling to chase down big totals against strong batting teams!

Big news from the cream of the crop, our First XI are on a serious hot streak right now and find themselves top of Premier 1 after .o.x broke Cropston CCs hearts again with some clinical death batting after taking a few wickets in the first innings!

Onto this weeks fixtures!
