I'm in for Friday evening and the Saturday game.
Guys - this is going to be a fantastic weekend - with some great cricket and the rekindling of our relationship with the HKCC. The Bashers are likely to be well represented in the Dragons - so support would be greatly appreciated. The Bashers have also played a big part in putting this tour together - so get down and support the Dragons and the Pirates!
what time does the saturday match start? will the bus from the camel at 10.30am miss the first few overs?
Match scheduled to start at 10:30 but will likely get underway closer to 11. We don't anticipate supporters missing much if any of the action.
Will try and get down Friday...
