Badgers Cricket Club – Season 2026 Match Results
This page provides immediate access to the latest results for season 2026. The above links, and the navigation bar at the top of the screen, also make it possible to get at the running results and match reports for the other seasons since this web site has been in existence, as well as the results for the seasons back to 1959. Seasons prior to 1984 do not include information about individual performances since full scorebook details have not (yet??) been input to the database for those years.
The match reports page makes it possible to see the reports from all games in the current season, not just the current one in the section below. To get at the reports you can either select the link in the menu at the top of the page, or indeed in the text above, or click on the date and opponent details in the results table below, which should be a hyperlink directly to the report for that game.

My apologies for the lack of a report for this game, but nothing was written at the time and there is little or no chance that anything will be now
Statistical Notes: Debuts for Jamie Goodwin and Smiten Patel this week, with both acquitting themslves admirably. Smiten, despite something of a nightmare in the catching department, bounced back to register a match winning innings opening the batting in the process becoming only the fourth Badger in the last 35+ seasons to record a score of fifty or more on debut and the first to do so since Adi made a ton against Forest Green in the final game of 2023. Jamie brought up the winning runs with a six after some lovely ball striking and had also taken his first ever wicket.
Goldie and Smiten put on an opening partnership of 135, the 12th best in club history for the first wicket and the best since Joe and Sam against Dormansland last season.
You wait two years for a three catch game and then two come along one behind the other, with Jake snaring three in this game for the eleventh time, comfortably in second place but a long way behind Mark. Jake also played in his 227th game for the Badgers and thus moved past Foxy into 14th place on the all-time list of appearances.
Trivia of the day: there were three people who kept wicket in this game, all of whom were named Steve.
