The Kiwis are sputting chups this morning about John Howard being put forward for the spot of Deputy President of the International Cricket Council, with the likelihood he’ll take over the top job in 2012.

Will he keep his eye on the ball?Will he keep his eye on the ball?

The New Zealand Herald this morning lamented: “Cricket: ‘Fan’ with no cricket experience gets top job.” The paper wondered what “Australian heavying” went on behind closed doors to secure Howard over NZC Chairman Sir John Anderson. (more…)

Ladies & Gentlemen of the GREATEST CRICKET CLUB IN SHANGHAI [if not the UNIVERSE]!

The End of Season function/Awards Night is upon us once again, and its our time to reflect on a WONDERFUL year of highlights, both on and off the Ground! This year, following last years antics, we’ve decided to turn it up a few degrees and get ‘Loose & Local‘!

Check it out:

Date: Friday 27th November 2009

Location: Ya Ke Xi Xinjiang Restaurant, 379 Xikang Road [near WuDing Lu]. 西康路379号靠近武定路

Time: 6:30 PM kickoff

Cost: 150 RMB for a smorgasbord of wonderful ‘local‘ cuisine and ‘loose‘ drinks [free flow VB, with spirits, mixers and the like in there as well!]

Dress Code: Loose, but local!

This is the occasion where we award ourselves for our efforts during the year, and vote on the upcoming years committee. 150 RMB is a great deal for a great feed, all you can drink, a night with mates and collectively patting each other on the back.

Last year we had 30+ punters at the end of season function, as we are only 2 blocks north of the Big Bamboo this year, I would expect we can push 50+ punters in the room! We Own the place for the night, so LET’S GET AMONGST IT! There’ll be belly dancers, singers and maybe a few suprises thrown inbetween!

for a look at last year’’s pissa (before the cameras got put away and things really got messy) see the evidence here.

Please comment below to RSVP as soon as possible, so we have an idea for numbers and catering logistics.

See you there, bright and early for a few beers!

Guys

Our lovely sponsors The Big Bamboo are putting on the RACE THAT STOPS A NATION tomorrow: The Melbourne Cup. Since the dawn of man, Australia has stood still on the first Tuesday of November to watch a few ponies run around Flemington, and to sink a few brews.

The race is at midday so get there early doors for a feed and a few cold one. The bookie will be there from about 10.30AM to collect all bets. Drink specials, 25rmb beers, cheap wine, good tucker…..get a bet on!

Secondly, the Tigers AFL dinner is coming up on the 14th of November, 850rmb each for all folk interested. Acker, Colbert and Fraser Gehrig will be here. Post here if you are keen to get along…

Ladies and Gentlemen of the cloth,

Just when your liver said ‘enough’, we are here to inform you of the up & coming Bashers CC Awards Night 2009.

Not only is it a night where we all sit down as a club and give ourselves a collective group-hug [and tickle], it’s where we also vote on next years Committee and award ourselves with copious amounts of alcohol. Surprise Surprise!

Stay tuned as we are locking in the dates as we speak. Will be bigger, bolder & brighter than last years installment.

Should have a idea ASAP, but at this stage keep the 27th & 28th of November clear.

It guarantees to be THE SOCIAL EVENT OF THE YEAR…and if anyone remembers last years installment, a word of warning: ‘LOCK UP YOUR SISTERS‘! [see photo]

Stay Loose
