!!REPORT AVAILABLE NOW!! A lively game which gave more joy to the bowlers than batsmen. The result not going for the Sharks on this occasion, but a glance at the figures will tell you this is was a tight affair where another 20 runs could have made all the difference. . . [Nick]
!!REPORT AVAILABLE NOW!! A KB lead Sharks 2nd XI produced an excellent all round team performance to beat Alpha Quashers and turn their drubbing at the hands of Paddys into a distant memory. Heroics with both bat and ball by all accounts. [Anton]
Big wins for the 1st XI over Alpha Quashers and for the 2nd XI over Fuji Far East gave the Sharks an ideal start to the new season. Pleased to see some decent individual batting scores which bodes well. Reports soon. [Anton]
You can now find details of our busy schedule for this season under the Fixtures tab above. We’ll need to add a few training sessions, social meet ups and the Chiba Cup of course. Things are still a bit provisional so keep on eye on the page until things settle. [Anton]
The Sharks have two full teams ready to get our 2017 Campaign underway this weekend. The 1sts take on newbies Alpha Quashers while the Super 2nds meet up with veterans Fuji Far East. Should be a cracking weekend if the weather holds. [Anton]
8 Sharks enjoyed a beautiful late Feb afternoon at Akai Farm nets, remembering how to play cricket again. Mainly 2nd XIers in attendance but I have to say, early signs look very promising with both bat and ball, Kavin looking particularly deadly with the cherry. [Anton]
Of the 14 players selected to represent Japan in the Men’s 2017 ICC World Cricket League Qualifier in Australia next year, no less than five are Sharks men! Rui, Muneeb, Takady, Marcus and Waki. Congratulations to you all. [Anton]
The Honours page (under the About tab) has been updated showing all of our major award winners this year. Well done everyone and particular congratulations to Dave Lollback on his Life Membership. [Anton]
Congratulations to Taniyama’s Uni XI who wrestled the Chiba Cup away from the Sharks on Saturday, despite some great performances from Pav, CT and Ashley. It was a good match played in a good spirit. Report soon [Anton]
Many thanks to Paul Grant for keeping our Stats in order this season. The final JCL1, JCL2 and T20 Shark Stats are now available through the Statistics tab above. Some fine performances are in there; two tons, some 5fers and a bucketful of 50s. Bravo Sharkies! [Anton]
