Badgers Cricket Club – Season 2025 Match Results

 

This page provides immediate access to the latest results for season 2025. 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.

View the detailed scorecard of this 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: Another debutant this week, in Errol “JJ” Brown, and unlike Ben last week he was able to snare his first victim within a couple of legal deliveries, albeit that remained his only success at the end of the day.

This week’s eleven were a little more experienced than last’s – 1010 caps versus the 628 flagged up in the last match report – but there was an even greater imbalance this week with Mark (590) and Darrell (288) accounting for 87% of those caps whereas last week Darrell (287) and Jake (215) represented a mere 80% of the total for the team.

T-Russ returned his best ever bowling figures, with 4 for 41 surpassing the 2 for 27 at Woodmansterne last month. I suspect that he will bowl better for less reward but there are no pictures in the scorebook.

Darrell’s first wicket, a diving catch to his left, was his 300th wicket for the club, the seventh Badger to reach that plateau. It also makes him only the fifth to have scored 3,000 or more runs as well as taking 300 or more wickets – behind Brian Moore, the Tickner brothers and skipper Mark. I would like to be able to tell you how he compares for the caught and bowled count too, but the Badgers database currently only has that information back to the middle of 2012 and back-filling is proving a slow and sometimes painful process. In the data that I do have his 20 catches off his own bowling is third behind Jake (22) and Mark (26).
