Bashers Leisure vs Daredevils – 8 April 2012

Meeting at the Camel at 07.30, I was thinking that two things may happen, firstly the Leisure may have been short of players because of Saturday partying; and Sinbad would still be at the Camel partying.

Swire and a bit of history FYI

In a moment of madness my company Swire Group agreed to be a Bashers sponsor this year. Having said that there is method behind the madness. Swire has a history in Shanghai going back 147 years during which it has provided a number of former Past Presidents of the Shanghai Cricket Club and Shanghai Rugby Club as well as a few Interport team captains. Up and until 1948 we played cricket, football and rugby matches on a regular basis. Our greatest sporting rivals at the time were HSBC, Jardines and British American Tobacco. This year Swire ("Taikoo") and HSBC ("Wayfoong") celebrate a Centenary of sporting rivalry on the rugby field (the cricket goes back to 1899) and to mark the event we are rekindling the old Taipans Trophy with a cricket game and rugby game against each other later this month at the SRFC. The significance of the event has not been lost on the Shanghai Govt as it looks like the Mayor will pop out for a while.

Selection for the Bashers Easter Extravaganza !

What better way to spend your Easter Sunday than smacking some eggs around a cricket pitch. We have 2 games, Leisure are up against the Hot Dogs on the near pitch at SRFC bright and early and the Business have a midday start at Dulwich.
