A youthful Sano 2nd XI put up a good fight in some steaming conditions but the Sharks did all the basics right and added the odd flourish of brilliance here and there to win on the day. Report soon. [Anton]
PG has done the Stats up to mid June. Movers and Shakers: Prashant’s awesome form sees him move atop the 1st XI batting, while PG and Takady battle it out with the ball. Gina and Limo top the 2’s and KB continues his JCup Bowling masterclass. [Anton]
Big thanks going out to KB and Viv who took care of our umpiring duties up at Sano 3 today. Sounds like Wombats and Wyverns had a good match. There are a couple more umpiring commitments on the horizon. Please sign up for them in the Forum. [Anton]
The Super 2nds got back to winning ways, beating FFE at glorious Fuji ground by the smallest of margins. Certainly a match that we’ll talk about for years to come. Great debut for Cath Grant too! Report soon. [Anton]
We were lucky to get a game in at all on Sunday. Unfortunately a much improved Sharks performance didn’t include enough catches and Tsukuba got away from us again. We need to win every JCup match from now to progress in the comp. Report soon. [Anton]
July 17th, a Sunday (with the next day as a national holiday) will see festivities break out in Oami, Chiba as the Thurgates hold their annual early summer BBQ. All are welcome so sign up in the Forum please, under Shark Talk. [Anton]
Many thanks to PG for taking care of the Stats this year. Our April/May tallies are now available (under the Stats Tab). Early promise from Doogs, Limo and Prash with the bat. Nice starts from PG, Regi, Kav and KB with the ball. Keep it up Sharks! [Anton]
An understaffed Sharks couldn’t restrict the Rising Sharks from posting 150+ which was enough for them to beat us at Sammu, where all four teams were on show. Good to see Koji again and many thanks to Mairaj and CT for umpiring the afternoon match. [Anton]
Appreciation to Chris Molloy and Takady for taking the long trek up to Tanuma for umpiring on Sunday. It was a good match by all accounts, played in a fair spirit too. [Anton]
The 1st XI came unstuck against Wombats spin maestro Rony down at Fuji at the weekend. Despite some quality fielding, the bats refused to work and we lost by a fair margin. Report soon. [Anton].
