A small, friendly cricket club based in north Edinburgh, near Inverleith Park and the Botanics. We put out two Saturday elevens in the East League in Divisions 4 and 7 and play midweek cup ties and friendlies. If you’d like to play some cricket, whatever your ability and however long you're in Edinburgh, please contact us through the link below. NB - views expressed here are only very occasionally "official".
Not often I agree with a Torygraph article, Charlie! The brief glimpses I had of the recent 20/20 would almost lead me to preferring baseball!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for the Club's continued success.

Bollocks. This is my day. Things have never been better. And never will be.
ReplyDeleteI went to the recent T20 world cup and to be honest, I have more fun at Test Matches and ODI's, especially crowd based banter.
ReplyDeleteHowever, as a way into cricket I think it serves as a good eye opener, especially as kids play a lot of 20/20 cricket.
It also depends what game you see, I saw England Vs NewZealand at Old Trafford a year ago and it was excellent, i saw England Vs South Africa in the world cup and it were shocking!!!!
