Chiba Sharks Cricket Club
A bumpy season so far sees the Sharks finish July in some style with a comprehensive victory over arch rivals the Tokyo Wombats in JCL1. Doogs starred with the bat with an epic century. Well done all. [Anton]
Our season opened with a high scoring loss in the Japan Cup to Rising Stars. Tanmoy and Atiq dominated with the bat but a little bit of rust and a shedload of wides made the chase easier for the Stars. Many positives though including 5 new players on show. [Anton]
No less than 15 Sharks of various vintages took advantage of the excellent facilities at Akai Farm to bat and bowl a few cobwebs away. Lots of quality on display; Freddy’s pace bowling, Hiro’s sharp batting, Anton’s splendid belly. Good prospects for the coming season. [Anton]
Dave and Anton attended the 2022 JCL meeting today and the season is set to start on April 2nd/3rd (1st XIs) and 9th/10th (2nd XIs). There are a couple of new teams; Kawasaki and Titans and a few tweaks to the penalty rules to. Highlights coming soon. [Anton]
20 odd Sharks assembled at KBs place (with the big windows all open of course) to celebrate a fantastic season. Big winners were Asanka and Ibby who picked a bagful of trophies each, and yours truly was made a Life Member! Great to see everyone again. [Anton]
