Cricketer Cup 2016

The first round of the Cricketer Cup will be played on Sunday, 12 June 2016.  OMTs are playing Bradfield Waifs at Merchant Taylors' and play will commence at 11.30am.  Weather permitting we look forward to a large crowd to support our first home game in the competition for a few years.  We also welcome Bradfield Waifs supporters who will find directions to the School by following the link on the right hand side.

The first match OMT ever played in the Cricketer Cup was against Bradfield Waifs in 1969 and what a game it turned out to be with both sides finishing on the same score of 110, but OMT prevailing by virtue of having lost only 9 wickets!  For those interested, the scorecard may be found here.  We hope to welcome a few of the players at the game on Sunday.

Philip Newfield has prepared a match preview in his own inimitable style which may be found here.

The Blog will operate in the usual way on Sunday.  Let's hope for good weather and a good game!
