If you are in Cornwall on Friday October 2nd join Ron and Chris Dennis for a walk at 4pm from Skinners Brewery on Newham Road

The O60s / O70s championship released a statement this week with regards to the World Cup ‘incident’

We discuss whether putting it out on Facebook with comments turned on is a good idea as yet again it attracted a whole raft of critical comments, almost certainly from people not directly connected to Seniors cricket

Let’s hope this can now be finished and everyone can focus on the numerous positives that surround Seniors cricket in England.

We will cover the final O70s Div 2 and 3 matches and the O65s regional competition final in our next episode.

We are into August which means knockout county O60s and O70s cricket, the O60s World Cup in Toronto and the O70s ODI series between England and New Zealand

This week was the round of 16 of the O60s Cup competition - so who won the prediction between Grant and Trevor?

We also had the round of 16 in the O60s 2nd XI Cup, some prelim matches in the O60s 2nd XI Bowl competition and in the O60s 3rd XI Vase

Extreme heat saw all O70s Div 2 and Div 3 matches cancelled and all the O70s 1st XI Bowl prelim matches postponed

Here’s a link to Ron Hedley’s march as featured on Songs of Praise https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m003056z/songs-of-praise-the-power-of-walking

Matches got underway at the O60s World Cup in Toronto with as we record no surprises os far

Matches on Wednesday largely went to Duckworth - Lewis when the rains came and with no covers for the grounds all of Thursday’s matches were cancelled

The infrastructure, or lack of it, was always going to be a talking point

England won the first O70s ODI at Frocester by 84 runs - match 2 is on Sunday 16th at Royal Fareham and match 3 on Tuesday 18th at High Wycombe
