    Hong Kong Tour

    3 December 2009 to 7 December 2009

    Need responses by Friday 20th November. SCC Dragons are looking for players for the HK tour:

    - Thursday Dec 3rd: The SCC Dragons are looking for 11 players to take on a HK-based club in a 40 over game
    - Friday – Sunday: SCC Dragons need 6-8 players for the HK Invitational 6’s
    - Monday Dec 7th: The SCC Dragons will be playing Kaitac CC in a 40-over clash.

    We are already sending club team to the 6s, but please let me know if anyone can make the other 40 Over matches. As Champions (never get bored of writing that!) it would be good to be represented in the SCC Dragons.

    Cheers

    Sunday’s Final Selection – Training

    12 November 20096:00 pm to 8:00 pm

    Bashers,

    This Sunday sees the clash of the League 1 giants vs the New Boys from Yiwu…
    Yes, the unthinkable has occured… The Hot Dogs are propping up the League, and the Mighty Mighty Bashers are in the final.
    The game is taking place at the SRFC on Sunday – time to be confirmed in the next 24 hours or so.
    The opposition are K2.
    The stakes couldn’t be higher… 12 months of officially being the best club in Shanghai – both off the field (undeniable) and on it.

    This is a reminder that there will be training on Thursday which will give players extra practice time.
    In all honesty there is unlikely to be major changes from last week’s heroic XII but all are welcome and indeed encouraged to come to SanHeHuaYuan on Thursday from 6pm till 8pm.

    This will be the last nets session of the season so would be great to get a turn out, and a mass descent on the Big Bamboo.

    Cheers,

    Bashers Business Team

    business-largeBashers,
    The Business Team are in the Final!!!

    Yesterday, in an absolute rip-roaring game of cricket, we held our nerve and managed to beat the Devils in a low-scoring thriller.

    An 08:30 start at the SRFC was always going to be unpleasant, but the team arrived in fine fettle  with a combined total of zero hang-overs to share between the team.
    A damp outfield with conditions set to improve made this a difficult decision upon the toss – but fortunately the Devils won, and the New Anti-Basher  decided to have a bowl first.
    His decision seemed vindicated as the Bashers top-order struggled against the Newton/Anugula new ball partnership. Wickets tumbled at regular intervals until Cassius and Paps started to gradually turn things round. Cassius eventually departed, and useful contributions from the lower order and some fantastic  running between the wickets combined with Paps’ 37 meant the Bashers reached a final score of 146 – a total we would have settled for at the drinksbreak. Interestingly… or embarrassingly…  this total was reached without a single boundary.
    The Devils began their run chase ominously – with Anugula successfully chancing him arm and sending the ball to all corners with  a combination of text-book slogs and agricultural heaves. They raced to 87/1 after thirteen over – with a special mention to Don Juan whose three overs contributed 33 runs…
    The decision was made to combine our lethal slow bowling partnership of Inquisition and Divinyl who had tied the Devils up last time we played them and again this ploy worked. Men crowded round the bat and huge pressure was applied on the batsmen. It worked.
    Leppa took 4 for not many in his 8 overs, Divinyl 3 off  8 as the Devils lost their last 9 wickets for 45 runs.
    It was breathtaking stuff – a great example of Bashers spirit – turning the match around through great running, great fielding and great bowling.

    Victory clutched from the jaws of defeat. Magical.

    Next week – Bashers vs K2 final. Bring it on.
