Bashers Cricket Club

Xiamen- Long lost Hammer to pitch up?

Just before he departed the Canny Man in Wanchai in search of a helicopter to take him to Macau, Hammer promised / threatened to come to Xiamen. We currently have 29 signed up. If 30 come we need two boats and can have a boat race to the beach party. It all rests with Hammer. The chat in Xiamen is that the wicket will have plenty of turn so all set up for leg spinners (or those that think they are). There will also be a decent breeze for Leppa to exploit.

Xiamen Cricket & Beach Party

Xiamen Typoons have formally invited the Bashers to come to Xiamen and launch cricket in Xiamen. The Typhoons were voted the most social side at the Shangahai 7s but were totally disappointed with the hospitality and drinking ability of the Shanghai rugby teams. They have challenged the Bashers to restore the pride in Shanghai and come to Xiamen to play the first ever game of cricket in Xiamen. The game will take place at the iconic Gu Lang Yu stadium on Gu Lang Yu Island. The plan is a morning game game followed by 6s. This is a once in lifetime opportunity to break new ground and restore Shanghai's tarnished image.
