DIAMOND RATS PLAYER OF THE WEEK:
Will Blain:
MVP performances in both indoor cricket and LMS cricket this week.
Scored his first half century for the Rats.
With 2 of our Rats in the mix to be top run scorer for this seasons Last Man Stands Newcastle Winter league,
Our amazing friend at 22 Yard Cricket has donated a fantastic bat to go to whoever finishes at the top of the runs table for the league.
There’s been some amazing batting on display this season, with players from all teams really putting on a show each week.
Diamond Rats Will McGarry and Dylan Duffin have been in fine form with 10 half centuries between them.
The Cowboys, Greenhills Giants, Greenwoods CC and the Panthers all have players continually performing at a high standard and will definitely be a chance to win the bat.
Here is the bat all players in this seasons league are eligible to win.
Thanks again 22 yard cricket for their amazing support this season!
