Well I ended up in the first team this weekend because of 3 people dropping out on Friday night which was not really the way i wanted to make my return to be honest! I’ve just started to find form with the bat again and was hoping for another week in the seconds to get a few more runs but it wasn’t to be.

We played Farsley who are top of the league and got beat convincingly. I didnt get chance to get on to bowl before they had knocked the runs off which i was a bit annoyed with. Hopefully I can get a good practice session in on Thursday if the weather holds off and then get bowling back in the seconds so I can get some confidence back and end the season with some more wickets!

Well im losing my patience with the English summer. I havent been able to properly train for about 3 weeks because of rain, so I’m feeling more than a bit rusty. I want to be netting about 2 or 3 times a week if I can to try and get more rythm with my bowling and get back in the 1st team, but the weather is conspiring against me so it looks like i won’t be back in the first team this season now. But im planning on a hard working winter so I can be injury free next year and back in the 1st team. Its going to be gym, gym and more gym for me this winter.
