Season 2010 |
|
Barry Gray |
 |
Barry...umpiring today despite
not being selected, appearing to raise his finger and give Mark Rance
out LBW, only for Mark to be recalled from the boundary when Barry
having sauntered off to square leg suddenly announced he had said 'not
out' and pointed to emphasise the point and end of over! |
|

Specialist Point
Jez taking one on the chin when mishandling at point. |
|
Tim Eveleigh |
 |
Zigzag running from mid-off after ball like a ship-liner, a team
mate suggested, turning in an estuary!
|
|
Tim Bunn |
 |
A thunderous drive was parried (or could be
described as a dropped caught and bowled) onto the stumps by the burly
Tim Bunn to run-out Kitchen(60) as the opener was backing-up. |
|
Barry Gray |
 |
......on stopping the ball in
his follow through, reacted to the young non-striker's call of "one
run" by turning, leaping (some might call it falling...)
and releasing the ball from all of two feet from the stumps, duly
clearing them by about a foot and ending up in a heap at the bottom of
them. Not satisifed with this outstanding attempt to claim the award, he
then ended up in a heap behind the very same set of stumps later on
whilst umpiring, when he neglected to notice the ball being returned
with reasonable force from the boundary thus being struck by it and
"thump", down he went once again like a sack of spuds, much to the
amusement of his "concerned" team-mates. |
|
John O'Driscoll |
 |
Either for wondering who had wandered off with his
shirt from the changing room (you cannot be serious, O'D! Who
would want to?) or his attempt to throw the ball in from the
boundary coming to grief because the ball "stuck" to one of his
plastered fingers - I imagine if that lot started to unravel it would be
like watching "The Mummy"! |
|
Howard Hamilton |
 |
Obviously feeling he
had played himself in, Howard challenged the bowler to “give me what
you’ve got Del!” whereupon he immediately lost his middle stump, much to
everyone’s amusement. |
|
Paul Jeffels and John O'Driscoll |
 |
John O'D being run-out when on as a runner for
John Howard. Paul Jeffels for hitting John's car with a six. |
|
Jez Skidmore |
 |
Jez's startling catch at point. |
|
John O'Driscoll |
 |
John taking a high catch at Deep
Gulley. He also took Man of the Match in this game at Warnham. |
|
Nick Goodburn |
 |
Nick taking an age
to leave the crease having been given out (wrongly) LBW, followed by his
throwing of bat, gloves and pads in an act of petulance. |
|
Dave Moody |
 |
Dave reverse sweeping his 2nd ball faced for
4, and telling Bear at tea "that is how to play the shot!" |
Nick Goodburn
and Paul Jeffels |
 |
Nick Goodburn and
Paul Jeffels both carrying injuries hobbling to a 107 run partnership at
Newdigate! |
