Bashers Cricket Club

Sichuan School Sports Day 2011

As usual given the total lack of interest from the hieracrchy of Shanghai Cricket (except Bashers) to support the school in Sichuan outside help has been organised. Last time Japan Cricket stepped up to the plate. This year both the Xiamen Typhoons and the Chengdu Pandas have committed resources to drink Zhou Hua dry and help organise the sports day for the kids.Â The visit will coincide with the October rugby fest in Chengdu on Oct 15th. We will hit Zhou Hua on the 13th and the do the sports on the 14th. Pat Man from Xiamen and I are bringing our kids.Â Although thisÂ is early noticeÂ don't complain you did not know the dates.... Wayne, Pat Man and Bundy Boy are already confirmed.Â Any Basher with a business in Chengdu (Dipso) and who has a property in Chengdu (Dipso)Â is highly encouraged to come along.

Bashers Day… Part 2

Following on from the drivel written by Made In, I will try and keep this a little more concise (which is also due to the fact that I have misplaced the scorebook... I hope it is still in the Camel)

Madein’s Diary…I mean the Leisure Match report

8th May 2011 I awoke early from the bright hot sunshine striking my picturesque physique at about 6am. Alarm hadn't gone off, so I went back to sleep for the remaining 30 minutes. The normal alarm went off, so I tried to ignore it. Unfortunately the kids were more keen to go to cricket than I was an immediately rushed me in bed to drag me out for the first Leisure game of the season. No sleep, so time to exact revenge for my lack of sleep on the poor unfortunate souls that play for The Team That May Not Be Named.

New Bashers Day Quiz

With the social committee gone all international i guess it falls to me to let anyone who doesn't already know that the second Bashers quiz has been booked in for the Camel this Saturday the 14th.

Introducing Mei Hua – 1st Chinese national player to play for Bashers.

Gents. This Sunday there will be a lady wearing the baggy blue. China's most capped cricketer, former national team captain and bowler of the tournament Â at the recent Asia GamesÂ will be turning outÂ for the Leisure.Â So if you are out at the SRFC on Sunday it would be great if you could come and welcome Mei Hua to the club.Â She currently coaches a couple of the local Universities and next Monday starts work at the SRFC working on our Sport For All programme.Â Her first ever cricket match was 5 years ago against the Scottish Women's team that famously beat the BashersÂ (Woodstock and Leppa should remember that game) but since then Mei Hua has moved up in the cricketing world.Â Prior to becoming a cricketer she was javelin champion and could launch a javelin around 60m a skill thatÂ could come in very handy. She elected to join the Bashers because she heard there was another girlie called Loose playing for us.
