Wheathampstead Cricket Club News story


Weekend Preview - 11th & 12th May

09 May 2013

This weekend the club will be looking to build on their two wins and a winning draw from the opening games of the season. This weekend the 2nd's are at home on Nomansland so get down to support the lads in the game against Clifton.

1st XI
After picking up 18 points in their first game, the 1st XI travel to Radlett 2nd XI as they go in search of their first win of their Division 2 campaign. With the forecast set fair, it will be an interesting fixture especially as last time the two teams met back in 2006, Radlett came away winners as Wheato were bowled out for 154 and Radlett knocked off the runs 6 wickets down.

2nd XI
With a superb opening win against Radlett 3rd XI, Wheato 2nd XI face Clifton for the first time in league history. Nomansland will be braced for another huge Wheato performance as Jimmy McEwen's men will look to post their second win of their Division 6 campaign.

3rd XI
After blowing Watford Town 4th XI away to pick up their first win of 2013, the 3rd XI travel to Baldock 3rd XI as they go in search of their first away win of the season. It is the first time the two sides have met in league history so Wheato will be looking to come away with maximum points and move up the table.

Sunday XI
After the superb spectacle last year, Wheato will welcome Antigua Cavaliers to Nomansland on Sunday. Wheato expect the Cavaliers to bring at least 25 fans to the land and the game will look to provide the best cricket in Hertfordshire so make sure to get down and support the lads!
