Here's my blog about @AnsonStGeorge cricket club and you can read why the club is so special to everyone involved. We play friendly matches on Sundays in Hornchurch and are always looking for people to join regardless of ability. #CricketTwitter

Here's a little video slide show I crested showing the best of Anson St George CC in 2026!
Well that's 2026 done with. Another fantastic season with lots of great moments, great memories, fantastic personal achievements, and great laughs. Thanks to all the oppositions who have helped make our season and everyone who supports us.
Roll on 2027!

This is how we are lining up for the last time in 2026 as we take on a new fixture with Green XI CC.

I just lost my cricket ground (and perhaps club) because of @HSBC_UK selling their land.
New Beckenham had five senior teams, but more importantly a huge vibrant growing junior section for cricket. Now it’s homeless so Crystal Palace can own even more of the local area for professional footballers to train
London has always been one of the homes of cricket. But too often teams play on terrible facilities because the good ones are disappearing.
The New Beckenham pitch was a high quality square, the club might find other facilities. But it won’t be of this quality. And that’s if they find somewhere.
It feels every year there is less space for cricket in London. Not sure the Hundred is going to fix that. Professional cricket is great, but cricket needs everyone.
Some sort of cock up by @jet2tweets at Palma. LS1636 to Stansted meant to be depart at 1120 says boarding at 10:37 and nothing is happening. But a Stanstead flight due to leave 15 minutes later is boarding. No one knows what's going on. 100s of passengers starting to get agitated
Great final over by Mackenzie Jones. Won the game for essex there and over 16,000 people watching on line. I'm really enjoying this @onedaycup . There's been some great performances by the young eagles this season.

Only my 2nd 180 ever but I'm going to set myself a challenge to try and hit one every month this year.

Anson's player of the month for June was unanimously voted to be Dave Bage. Dave put in a couple of match winning performances that included 10 wickets and 157 runs with some massive sixes thrown in.

Scyld Berry has nailed the ECB to the wall.
The gift of experienced journalists is proper perspective. This is what modern media lacks. Everything is turned up to 11, normally for little reason
Here, Berry dissects the ECB's key personnel with a scalpel

Another thing about Stokes' retirement is that he's only given the team one day to sort out a collection for a leaving card and present. It's going to be quite stressful for whoever is in charge of that. When are they going to be able to get to the shops? #ENGvNZ #bbccricket

I think Tom Lathan should give everyone a bowl, including changing the wicketkeeper so Blundell can have a bowl. #ENGvNZ #bbccricket

Ben Stokes has been a great servant for England, but he's done no service for the team today by opening the batting and swinging the willow. I don't know where England go next but Brook can't be England captain after the contemptible shot that gave his wicket away. #bbccricket
