Congratulations to 1st XI bowler Keron who made his Wiltshire debut this week, taking 4-37 in the 2nd Innings v Shropshire to help bowl Wilts to victory. 👏💨
It’s always great to have club legend and England fast bowling coach Jon Lewis back at the club. Thanks for overseeing a session with some of our senior quicks - a great experience for them. 🏏
On a sunny weekend that would have seen fixtures for three senior teams and youth teams who is missing this...!? 😢

Shiny new outdoor nets completed. What a facility - one the club can be really proud of. With 35+ attending indoor senior nets they will be well used!
