Cricket Grounds Of Britain

Although the cricket season has come to a close, Herefordshire Cricket Society start their winter cricket evenings on Thursday 26th September at Hereford Rowing Club at 7.30pm with former Middlesex and England... facebook.com/HerefordMinorC…

@FredBoycott But they never learn.

England are well set for a draw in this test.. All they need to do is: ... If ball not on wicket.... LEAVE If ball on wicket.... BLOCK #DigIn and #StayIn

Don’t forget we are hosting the rearranged @WiltsCricket Wiltshire Wallop finals day this Sunday @GoatacreCC vs @ShrewtonCC at 11am and the winner of that will play us at 2pm

@BattersbyDave @GlamCricket @AbergavennyCC Completely agree, it must have made a great venue for a Festival and there's lots of space.

Great ground Just wish @GlamCricket would play an annual game there @AbergavennyCC I have enjoyed many a pleasant day watching the Glam at Pen-Y-Pound

Two further views of this lovely venue before I leave. Wales are 231/5 (73) at tea with good knocks from Matthews 71, Kolk 66 and Ilyas 45*. Herefordshire have kept things tight on an unhelpful looking pitch for the bowlers.

Lunch interval here at Abergavenny and Wales are 118/2 off 36, excellent 55* from Matthews the highlight. It does look quite a flat track though.

@Deano230 @lhourahane Should imagine the short boundary where the gardens encroach the playing area gets its fair share.

@lhourahane @grounds_of I give you Andrew Symonds.

Final round of MCCA games this week and where better to finish the season than the wonderful Abergavenny ground for Wales v Herefordshire.

Western Div. fixtures starting Sunday 1st September (10.30) @BerksCricket v @Dorset_CCC @WargraveCc @DevonCricket v @cornwallccc @ExeterCricket @Oxoncb v @CheshireCCC @thamecricket @MinorDinkies v @HerefordMinorC @AbergavennyCC @wiltshire_ccc v @shropshireccc @MarlboroughCC

Absolute carnage. Glamorgan's 174 didn't look like enough on a pitch that made the M4 look rough. Carey 61 tore the bowling apart and Evans 45* finished the job. Probably more than I've seen them get in the Championship for a couple of years too.😆. 🦈🦈🦈#GOSBTS

Just a reminder to all young cricketers ... @benstokes38 was 3 off 70 balls before his heroics yesterday ... You are allowed to #Digin & occupy the crease in this era ... Anyway #OnOn ... Time for a Hol 👍👍#Ashes

@kirkwjones @lancscccaction @lancscricket They'll be having to give tickets away for that just to get a crowd!

@lancscccaction @lancscricket I wonder if there will be booking fees for the Hundred Balls Up competition?

Even by the high moral standards @lancscricket show towards members & supporters charging £1 for you to print your own match ticket at your own expense is quite unbelievable.

@GeoffreyBoycott @benstokes38 @ECB_cricket You still win nowt wi sloggin 😆😏. Never seen anything like it and I remember '81.

I’ve seen some remarkable cricket moments in my life but that is the best I’ve seen in over 50 years. @benstokes38 saved the Ashes and gave a magical inspirational innings. Even better than his World Cup performance. Well done @ECB_cricket

@bbctms Thats a proper #digin from Stokes !

Ben Stokes is on 1* from 37 balls. Joe Root's on 74*. There's eight minutes to go until stumps. Can England see it through without loss? #TheAshes LIVE: 📻📱💻🎥 bbc.in/2Znmbqv #ENGAUS #bbccricket

@sambillings @KentCricket Can you keep quiet next time and not jinx the poor lad 😉. Having seen him get a couple of big scores in the Championship he deserves a run. Has played better than many.

Can everyone just be quiet and stop doubting the quality of this bloke please...! Keep going Joeyyyy #gun

@OOCCricket_ Someone needs to at least it's a start. 😉

A 3 day minor counties game from Sunday at Sedbergh School was abandoned without a ball being bowled due to the saturated pitch. The game was moved to nearby Neatherfield & they played a 1 day game with no problems. Rumours @lancscricket are playing 2/3 games there next year 🙄

@bbctms This joke competition has nothing to do with Cricket let alone Test Cricket why even report on it? The Women's version is even more pointless as they already have a well organised franchised tournament.

Congratulations @bbctms summariser @dhazell17 Of the 8 coaches announced so far for the hundred she is the only English coach named. However we understand at least two more women’s team coaches will also be English. #bbccricket

Latest 💯 coaches named. @dhazell17 & @darren_lehmann appointed head coaches for the Leeds-based team for The Hundred. #bbccricket
