Don't care about the T20 but love to beat these bitter cheats.

Das is incredibly lucky to be anywhere near a first team squad.  He has 1 score of over 50 in all second XI cricket this season.  If they're not going to recall Khushi then they'd be far better off playing Westley.

Good news, forecast has it pissing down all evening. Bad for the club coffers, but a point very much gained.

Presumably it is insured so everyone's a winner...except the insurers!

I was told by a former member of the committee, that is no insurance due to the cost of the premiums. The cost for all the games that are dry will outweigh the loss on a wet game.

Nah you can insure per game. Normally you can't take out insurance until a couple of weeks before a game/event.
