I stumbled across Cricket Scorecards on Twitter and thought it was a brilliant idea. Greg will take your scorecard from Play-Cricket or wherever and do an immaculate paper copy that is then printed and sent out.
My best performance with the ball was 8-85 back in the mists of time but a day that I remember vividly.
It was a stinking hot day in South-West London and I was handed the ball by my captain and told, ‘We’ve only got 3 bowlers so I need to you to bowl the whole innings.’
I have bowled miles better and got little or no reward (and much better economy rate) but on that day racking up 25 overs on the bounce, an extraordinary thing happened.
It wasn’t that I could barely bowl it on the stumps. That was sadly quite common. Instead, our team were absolutely unstoppable in the field, catching anything and everything.
By the end, I had shed about a stone and any semblance of pace had evaporated in the afternoon sun.
All of this I recalled in technicolour while marvelling at the colourful scorecard that came through the post from Greg at Cricket Scorecards. I had just sent a link to a Play-Cricket scorecard and he’d done the rest.
So check them out, they’re on Etsy only as well as @cric_scorecards on Twitter. You can buy famous scorecards like the 2019 World Cup Final or perhaps Yorkshire’s 1983 John Player Sunday League triumph.
