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.

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: First item of note is the score for the home side, which results from it being a twelve per side contest, with the usual local rule for tour about retiring at fifty playing in as well. The Whitstable number twelve was dismissed from the last ball of the innings, which could have carried on had the overs not been exhausted, with their number three returning to the crease to resume his innings and thus the innings closed with ten wickets down.

Shaun returned the second best bowling figures of the season and by far and away the best of his five efforts over the past four years whilst Joe recorded his fourth score of fifty or more from 20 innings and became at least the eighth Badger to reach the ‘retire at fifty’ in a tour game.

With his third scoring shot of the day Matt Mann became the 36th Badger to reach the one thousand run plateau.

With the penultimate ball of his fourth and final over Jake passed Dave Tickner into eighth place on the list of lifetime runs allowed, finishing the day five ahead on 4,412. It will be a very long time before he catches Allan Butt who is nearly 2,000 runs away in seventh place.
