It was one of many issues and one that had a lot of time spent on it due to the DVCA's lack of a future plan, not simply because the Mash clubs didn't want a bye (or two in some cases). The comp want to bring one club in now (BP) and then basically wait and see what happens in terms of what's...

3 metres and not necessarily a DVCA enforcement... Apparently it's written into the JLT insurance guidelines that any boundary must be marked/coned off 2.74m from the fence. If this isn't done and someone cops an injury due to colliding with the fence, etc. the home club is liable for any damages.

I don't think it would/should matter one way or another as a player, you play where you play, but a lot of clubs base their social calendars around who they are playing at home and when. I'd imagine having your ones at home for something like a President's lunch or Life Members day would be...

Fair point on both accounts in your opening line! I didn't go to Lower Eltham last year, but I was at both games last weekend. Started at Mernda then with the result having been decided by 4pm (no disrespect to Eltham), went to Plenty and can say there were the same amount of, if not more...

AB - this isn't directed at just you, so please don't take it that way. 1. It's a standard 6 foot wide pitch at Mernda, the only difference being there are no 'wings' on the apron. Yes, this gives the impression of a 'skinny pitch', but the measurements are the same as any other ground with a 6...

I'm not the new formats biggest fan, I'll say that. I can't see why, if they're restructuring the whole comp and putting sides in and out of different grades anyway, that they can't strip it right back and come up with a format that gives us, at least, an even draw. None of the options put...

Baker's 99/2000 (I think, will double check that) season was a blinder too. 99 wickets at ************ all and a few runs to boot - Like you said, MyCricket doesn't go back that far so can't give exact figures. Mark Reid would also figure in the above stats if MC dated back that far and were...

Not compulsory, but at no charge to the clubs. If quality comparisons come in to play, the club with the inferior ball will only have themselves to blame for not sending an email and organising a change over of balls from the current ones. Not a hard process by any stretch.
