Congratulations to 1st XI skipper Dhugal Bedingfield for picking up 2019’s Best Batsman Award at the recent JCA Awards in Tokyo. 419 runs and a 59.7 average is evidence of another outstanding season for the elegant Aussie opener. Same again in 2020 please. [Anton]
In a tightly contested final at SICG, the 1st XI pulled out all the stops to beat MAX CC and become 2019 JCL Champions. Congratulations to Captain Bedingfield and his valiant crew and everyone else in the club. Report soon [Anton]
A tightly fought, low scoring semi final up at SICG vs Tigers went our way today and by a decent margin in the end. Second final in two years. Well done Chiba Sharks 1st XI. [Anton]
The 1st XI swaggered into the semi finals last weekend with a complete demolition of long time rivals the Wombats. There were good performances all round as the 1s won by almost 200 runs. Report soon. [Anton]
Superb batting from Ash and Deba set up a crucial victory against Adore on Sunday to assure us of JCL2 cricket again next season. What a great way to bring our Div 2 campaign to close. Report soon [Anton]
The JCL1 and 2 regular seasons are coming to close. The Super 2s will be looking to retain JCL2 survival vs Adore while the 1st XI will look to cement a semi place against Wombats. Good luck all.
An epic spin masterclass from Mystery Mahesh and a solid all-rounders performance from Kendel Fleming was enough to take care of the Falcons this weekend. Report soon [Anton].
The Super 2nds never got going with the bat against a very accurate Sano attack and found themselves defending double figures. Never easy, but a good day out nonetheless. Report soon [Anton]
Captain Marcus Thurgate, VC Neel Date, Max Clements, Ash Thurgate, Debashish Sahoo, Ishaan Fartyal, Leon Mehlig and spin wizard Yughandar Retharekar. The entire CSCC salutes you. You are part of the first ever Japanese side to get to the World Cup Finals. Truly epic. [Anton]
The U19 World Cup Qualifiers take place at SICG this weekend. Get up and support Japan if you can! You’ll be in familiar company as no less than 8 of the squad are Sharkies. Good luck gents. [Anton]
