A great game of cricket

Match report: Kings Road Cricket and Social Club

by Chris Shone

The 100th Badger game was marked by a King’s Road guard of honour and a Barker black and white cravat. And what a game it proved to be! Half century for Shone at the top of the order. 4 wickets and impressive celebratory shouting by Foord. King’s Road’s Jack Caesar hitting five sixes in one over. King’s Road cruising. A dramatic fight-back by the Badgers. King’s Road requiring 3 to win off the final ball. The batsmen running two. An incredible tie. Woof!
