Weekend Results 👆

Only two results this weekend, as the 3s game was cancelled due to the opposition not being able to get a team 👎

The 1s won at home to Hillhead. After bowling first restricting them to 170 from their 50 overs, with solid bowling from Nathan and Areeb Umeed. Backed up with the bat in a solid chase, with runs from Fergus, Parth and Raja to see us home with 7 overs to spare 🔥

Unfortunately, a tough day for the 2s at Langloan with a 132 run defeat. However, runs for Lalit and some decent bowling performances give us a lot to improve on for the coming weeks 💪

All three senior teams for the weekend 😎

The 1s are finally hoping to get a game, after three weeks on the road, watching the rain, they are back to the BCP where we host Hillhead 🔥

The 2s make the short trip to Coatbridge to play Langloan in the Buckfast derby 🍾 looking to get back to winning ways after a defeat and wash out last week!

And after a long wait, we eventually have a Sunday game for the 3s! They travel to Irvine, looking to build on recent midweek victories 🤞

☔️❌❌☔️

Unfortunately neither team beat the weather this weekend, as both the 1s and 2s games were abandoned. Making it 3 rain outs in a row for the 1s 😔

Fingers crossed next week will bring some dry weather 🤞

This week we highlight achievements of our players completing their studies:

Kasym Zaidi — MA Psychology and Spanish — University of Glasgow
Amaan Ramzan — BA Accounting — University of Aberdeen
Areeb Umeed — BSc Physics and Astronomy - University of Glasgow
Mubeen Shah — BSc Pharmacy — Robert Gordon University

Well done lads.
We are proud of you.

Teams for the weekend as we begin the second half of the season ☝️

Just the two fixtures again this weekend, as the development XI fixture has been rearranged😵‍💫

The 1s are hoping to finally beat the rain and go third time lucky on the road, as they travel to in-form Kilmarnock who currently sit top of the league🔥

For a third week in a row, the 2s are at the BCP. After last week’s disappointing result, they are looking to bounce back against top of the table Whitehaugh. Can we be the first team to beat them this year 👀 🔜

Once again only one result this weekend, as the 1s yet again fell victim to the Stirling rain 🌂😕

The 2s were at home to Stirling. After winning the toss and sending them in, Stirling put several partnerships together to reach 235. Some positive scores in our chase, but ultimately too many wickets left us 50 short of their score🫩

Senior teams for this weekend🔒😎

Unfortunately, only two games again this weekend as the opponent for the 3s game have conceded😕

The 1s are back on the road to Stirling, this time on the bottom pitch against Stirling as we look to get back to winning ways after last weeks wash out 🌂

The 2s are at the BCP for the second of three consecutive home games, looking to back up last weeks last over thriller 🥶 as they host Stirling 🔥

Good luck to all teams in action✔️

Senior results from this weekend 👆

Unfortunately the 1s were abandoned without a ball bowled against Mearns, due to the rain at Stirling on Friday🌧️🌂

The 2s were at home and in front of a packed crowd at a sun-kissed BCP and produced a last over, 3 run win in a thriller 💥 Contributions all down the order pushed us up to a competitive score of 221. Backed up by a solid bowling performance, and two wickets from Muz in the last over saw us creep over the line for the win 🥶
