We had a good time. 14 of us allowed for one umpire, 2 batters and 11 fielders.

Each team of two had 25 minutes. Each wicket taken was -5 points. Everyone bowled around 4 overs.

Winners were Naga and Karthik with 62-1, just in front of Brett and M (Bangladeshi name I didn't catch) with 62-2.

Tony and Tarek came 7th with 1-5

The outfield is not yet safe, ok for a knockabout but not match fit

The wicket plays very well, fast and true with some spin. Very like in the nets (as it's the same Flicx this is maybe no surprise)

Square boundaries are very short, but we knew that already and it's barely worse than Midi.

Bowlers' run ups are not good. Not smooth and thus no confidence for the quick's.

So all in all very successful but some work still to be done.
