Chingford Cricket Club News story


Chingford 0 Rain 4

21 May 2006

After our clean sweep of wins last week, Chingford were swept away by bad weather this week. The 3rd and 4th team matches were abandoned without a ball being bowled. Both the 1st and 2nd teams drew matches that were interupted by the rain and in both cases trying to chase down scores. The 1st and 2nds could only collect 4 points each, the same number achieved by the 3rds and 4ths for their matches.
Across the county, the picture was brighter for cricket and gloomier for Chingford as most other matches went ahead and reached conclusions. As a result, Chingford have fallen back in each of their divisions. For full details visit our League Tables page.
Chingford spectators did have the opportunity of watching Roger Telemachus, the South African One-Day International playing for our opponents, Hornchurch. Telemachus played for South Africa in their World Record score win over Australia back in February. Brian Pieterson's brother was also in attendance at Chingford giving some family support.
