<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">LCFC v KFC 09/02/2014</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Such is the rivalry between these two clubs that by the time the first game of the day between Lima Indians and Eidegenossen had finished, both teams had completed their warm-ups and were waiting to get it on! Normally we have to wait a few minutes while one person or other has to finish off a parenting duty or is stuck in one of the many non-existent Sunday traffic jams or extracting themselves from a lady of the night or something even more outlandish. But no, 22 players muzzles unleashed, ready for the off.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">Well anyway, Hodgy, LCFC skipper won the toss and as tradition dictates, batted first. Cracking start from the skipper, out first ball to a classic delivery from Buesst, he of happylandia, pitching outside off and cutting in destroying the stumps. Myers, vice-captain for the season, went on the offensive immediately pulling and driving Spry of Underwaterlandia (the west country in UK is currently suffering from heavy flooding) before hooking onto his own stumps. A solemn walk back to the boundary befell him also. 13-2, not a great start. Tony the finger then came in and after a brief hit was caught behind beautifully of a great ball that cut away from him and Gav Breeze took a neck choker. Konrad was soon out LBW to a straight ball 4m up the pitch. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">The trouble was that KFC’s powder had run dry. After Buesst and Spry they simply did not have the bowling to keep the score down. Hans and new boy Alex Farrar set about the remaining bowlers, Finn Mclelland whose wavering spin was too often too short, which is a cardinal sin on this pudding of a wicket, was soon dispatched. Farrar was soon retired on 25+. In came another new boy Paul Zonka. What is it with Australians and their ability to choose surnames that go so well with cricket? Last year we had Donkin now Zonka. Journalists dream I say! Well he truly zonked the ball and achieved something I have never seen before and will probably never see again. He managed to hit 2 sixes onto the same car in consecutive balls. I have a meeting with club sports liaison officer about that in about an hour…… Well he came and went hitting 25+ off about 8 balls. Hans and Walter then continued the run scoring until De Witt was retired also. Jorge Pancorovo and Walter continued until the score was 180ish. Walter also retired, a first I think in the Apertura, would have to check the anals, sorry annals. So score set at 205 off 20 overs, which was pretty good considering LCFC had been wavering at 49 for 4 off 7 overs and could quite easily have capitulated. LCFC batted in a very non-ringerish way with 4 players completing the maximum and helped ably by KFC’s rather wanton ways with the ball.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">KFC came into bat and were soon into the bowling, Buesst and Mclelland hitting De Witt and Zonka around. Zonka was not the slowest bowler on the track. It will be a shame that his 6 month sabbatical in Peru is completed in 3 weeks. His star has shone bright. Buesst then smacked LCFC everywhere and was soon retired bringing in the KFC middle order. Sorry, don't have the score card and can’t tell you the names of the KFC players but they were not able to put up much of a fight as a combination of Tony Sanford and Julian Walter soon dismantled the much vaunted middle order Sanford of straight lines and Walter of Blurred Lines. One day they will whisper the words Sanford and Walter in the same way they talk of Laker and Lock….. as if! Actually it was down to some pretty spectacular catching from the field that made both bowlers look good and two downright evil balls from Sanford that practically went underground to bowl the batsmen. Back to the catching, that man Zonks, you can’t keep him down. KFC batsman hits it high and wide to mid-on. Zonks runs 20m in and dives a la Nick Farr Jones to take an unbelievable diving catch. Myers an over later then does a similar diving catch to scoop an off drive and finally to finish off an Aussie hat trick of catches Konrad running back over his shoulder took an almighty steepler. Walter had Spry LBW flush on a full toss and Breeze, bowled, deceived in the flight. Myers then mopped up the rest, bowling Catchpole to finish off the job.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">LCFC had won by 125 runs, massive!</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">We better not forget the skipper, Hodgy who did a magnificent job motivating and setting both an interesting batting lineup and field, in order to maximize the most input possible from all the players. He did a standup job. </span></div>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt;">What did we learn today? Recruitment is key. Zonka is an LCFC legend, beer is drunk afterwards.</span></div>

Postscript: Could not stay to enjoy the festivities at the club as I went to the theatre afterwards to watch a musical called Mentiras. A an excellent performance of 80’s Spanish Popmusic, a parody of Mexican Soap Operas. It was professionally produced with great choreography and much enjoyment by the performers. <span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;">She Who Must Be Obeyed, that's exactly how Lima Cricket played today.</span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;">
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Another summer <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_412660136" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span> in Lima, grey skies lifting slothfully just in time for cricket. Players of every denomination drifting through the doors of LCFC to indulge their passion. Setting their bags down, perusing the pitch and going off to shake hands with friends they have known for more than a decade or with some they have met just the previous weekend. It´s always the same. The hearty bonhomie they recognise from wherever they have played cricket before. A chance to forget, to anticipate, to relax, to enjoy. Just simply to be. But enough of the reverie, on with the report.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">An annual fixture in the calendar is the Viv Ash Cuba Libre Invitational, another opportunity to get one's eye in before the serious business of competitive cricket kicks in. As so many players are involved these days it is a serious business trying to organise the cricket into a useful, meaningful, competitive practice. So it was decided to split the 30odd arrivals into 3 teams, named Appleton, Bacardi and Cockspur. Originally it had been Cockburns but due to the alcohol not being rum related, the scorer, Juliet, decided to take it upon herself to change the name and she being from a rum making nation the organiser was not going to argue. A v B, B v C, and A v C would be the equation. The usual issue of the actual team not being the same as the team list obviously made for a slightly stressful beginning but some smudging of names and last minute adjustments made for 3 teams of 9 or 10 depending on the time of day. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">First off Appleton played Bacardi, Bacardi winning the toss and scoring 75 runs with Roughton and Mahoney receiving arguable decisions (more on this later). Viv Ash, the trophy´s namesake, was playing for Appleton and, despite his advanced age of 127 he was still able to bowl Sargent, middle stump and then, while walking back to his fielding position took the most casual of catches – incontrovertible proof that cricket can be played by one and all. I think extras was top scorer in this match. Appleton faltered atrociously in response after Farook's quick fire 23 and no one else really deserves mention. </span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">What happened after though was really the news of the day. Two players questioned the umpires decision after the game´, saying they ball had gone from the bat to pad not vice versa. Thereupon the umpire marched off the premises, uttering imprecations against upstart pipsqueeks (or words to that effect – language modified for GA rating) who question umpire´s decisions. Someone mentioned that this is always the case, the umpire is often not the happiest person on the pitch. So the day was official umpireless. The situation was resolved with the non-playing team provide two umpires and the scorers´ father, Denis was pressed into action. A very correct square leg ump he was too, changing side with the change of left hand right hand bat, and at not too bad a canter either considering his dotage.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">At around the same time, Spry, who had just returned from the West Country, managed the amazing trick of falling off the spectator bench while keeping his beer intact, well done that man.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">On with the cricket. Bacardi then posted 97 runs with Buesst and Mahoney both being retired out after scoring more than 25 runs: 25 and 29 respectively. Bobby and Diego de la Puente took some beating with 18 off their one over respectively. Jon 'Dementer' Heyman continues to impress with his slow, painfully accurate bowling (or should it be painfully slow, accurate bowling?) Somehow he manages to persuade the ball to go through a time distortion field after it pitches and many batsman's souls seemed to get sucked out of them as they lose their stumps. Empty shells appear pitchside minutes later. Cockspur were unable to reach that impressive score although James and Sonu did by reaching double figures. Bacardi had won the tournament with a game still to be played.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">The final game was played between Appleton and Cockspur, Appleton scored 66, with Simon Parker the backbone of the batting with a solid 26, dropped twice on the way but carried on in an unhurried manner. Dementer came into his own again with 3 wickets for 20. Steve 'Hagrid' Hallett also fell victim to the Dementer who completed his soul-sucking with Jaggi, who managed to make a typical quickfire 16 before meeting his fate. Farook (3-7) Zulfi (1-10) and Jaggi (0-4) then bowled excellent spells, keeping Cockpsur to a below par 55, though Bobby managed to make amends for his wayward ways with an authoritative 30.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Bacardi were awarded one of the many football trophies that clutter up the cricket hut for their reward and Chris Mahoney was awarded man of the day and had to drink from a filthy, cup/box as his reward.</span></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">What was learnt? Don't sit next to an alcoholic woman at a cricket match, you'll find yourself emigrating to Mexico. An umpire's patience is finite. Beer is drunk during and after the match.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">So the 2014 Season has begun. The </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">first game</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> of the season was the Rob </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">Champion Trophy</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">, presented to Cricket Peru by Rob Champion, a longtime stalwart of the game, before his departure for more challenging cricket environments. The only stipulations attached to the trophy are that the game is to be played in a </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">good mood</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> with the teams to be named the Manics and the Depressives respectively. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Originally advertised as a 9-a-side tournament and programmed to begin at <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_327943638" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">1pm</span></span> with players to arrive at 12, only 16 players had turned up by <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_327943639" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">12:45</span></span>. Team captains Steve Hallet and Julian Walter decided to start with 8-a-side, a 25 over match, 5 over maximum for bowlers and batters to retire after scoring 30 runs with the possibility of coming in again if the wickets ran out. At 1:08:34 there were 11 players for each side. In keeping with the spirit of the Champion Trophy, it is promised that everyone who turns up gets a game. Despite the promised appearance of Harikrishna and 3 or 4 others who did not turn up, by 1:23:13 it was a 12-a-side game. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">The toss was won by the Manics who chose to bat first. Diego de la Puente, darling of the </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">South American</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> under 13’s (who scored the winning runs – 12 in the final over – against Argentina in October 2013) and Henry Harris, a debutant to LCFC, opened the batting. Henry was soon bamboozled by the pace, or lack thereof, of the pitch and was out caught off Jon Heyman’s bewildering medium-slow ball, as was Bobby a few balls later. Diego opened with some intent but was later clean bowled by David Chaplin, another debutant who´s pace increased as his spell went on. Alex Neufeld (eventually bowled by Jaggi – owner of the first and only maiden over of the match) and Suyash then pushed the score slowly on to 50. Suyash was then bowled by Zulfi, a skiddish fast bowler. His pace also accounted for Sonu and Hiro, bowled and caught behind respectively. Chris Mahoney, resplendent in his signature yellow batting shorts and on a high from enjoying Australia’s 5-0 drubbing of England, shone briefly with a massive six before being given out LBW. Miles Buesst and Captain Walter then added 36 useful for the 9<sup>th</sup> </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">wicket</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">,taking the </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">score</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> to 106 before Walter was run out well short by an accurate throw from Gerhard Buttner. He appeared quite relieved to be out as the partnership had consisted of many quick singles. This also brought in Tiagi, who made a splash by hitting 24 runs in an over. However, his tardy arrival due to a rather late night with a certain Johnny Walker may have contributed to him getting out soon after for a golden bowled by Tony Sanford. Or it might have been the </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">sandals</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> he was wearing. Miles and Farook added 18 runs before Miles was brilliantly run out by Tony Sanford from point. Manics had scored 124 in 23 overs. Not really near enough.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">Depressives began their batting with Indar and Divyansh. With just a few runs on the board Div was caught at point, flashing. Gerhard was then caught by Julian the Kangaroo Walter, jumping 5 feet in the air at short mid-on. Atif and Indar tucked into some buffet bowling from Farook and Buesst, but soon Farook had Atif LBW. Buesst was rather expensive with 13 going off his one over, and as runs were at a premium, he suggested Walter bowl. Walter, hit for four off his first ball, rallied and dismissed Jaggi LBW off his 3<sup>rd</sup> ball, bowled the debutant </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">Simon Parker</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> second ball and had David Chaplin for a golden after moving Mahoney into a short mid-wicket position, taking a smart catch low down. Depressives were in trouble. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">From 54-3 to 55 – 6. Zulfi hung about a </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">bit</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"> before some pressure bowling from Sonu brought about a catch for Farook at long on. The cool and collected Indar retired after scoring a 6 to bring him to 33. Buesst then engineered some skipper –on-skipper with Steve Hallet caught by the Julian Walter for a </span><u><span lang="EN-US" style="border: 1pt solid windowtext; color: blue; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; padding: 0cm;">duck</span></u><span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">. Mahoney was brought on to try his hand at his left arm specials, so promising in nets, yet rarely replicating on the pitch. An over that brought 4 wides also brought 2 wickets, those of the spin factory: Sanford and Heyman. Marcus Gee and Indar then tried to wrest back the initiative for the Depressives, but the target was just beyond them with Farook clearing up Gee’s wicket. They were 21 runs short.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 12.75pt;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #555544; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;">What was learnt? Patience is a virtue, runs come. There is no ex-county player here. Matches can turn in an over. Beer is drunk afterwards. </span></div>

Writing this sound like an excuse for playing shit! This is not really the case </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Four teams turned up to play today at the Lima Cricket & Football Club (LCFC), Chak De, Eidegenossen, Kiteflyers and LCFC themselves. Order of play was as follows:<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">LCFC v Kite Flyers<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Eidegenossen v Chak De<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">_____________________</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Eidegenossen v LCFC<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Kite Flyers v Chak De<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">_____________________</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Eidegenossen v Kite Flyers<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">LCFC v Chak De<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p>_____________________ </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>This is a six a side tournament which if you watch as an innocent bystander seems like a complicated kids game but as an adult is a great version of cricket. As a batsman should you puncture the fielding team you are almost guaranteed a four or a six, a mishit a one or a two. As a bowler your aim is to minimize the damage to your team.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>First game up and LCFC put on 47 for their five overs. Soulsby putting on the majority of the runs. In response KFC chased down the score with two balls to spare. The report does not really do damage to game and though the game should have been won easily it was not till Ed smacked a six from the penultimate ball did the game end. LCFC fought but to no avail. (Hodgy dodgey fielding....)</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>Eids dismantled Chak De fairly easily in the second game. Nick Jones smacking the ball all over the park. Chak De doing little.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>When Eids played LCFC a score of 52 by LCFC was deemed another slightly below par score and so it proved with both Mike Soulsby and Rob Champion’s overs both going for 20. Nick Jones and Ian Roughton chased down the score with apparent ridiculous ease. The game finished in under 3 overs. LCFC discovered a new abyss…..</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>The penultimate game of the round robin was between Chak De and LCFC which proved to be humdinger of a game. LCFC scored with MS RC and CS all adding runs with a late rally from JW and JP to bring the score to 44. Not quite enough. Tony went for 15 in his over, JW took 2 wickets and pulled the score back to par. CS took a wicket but was pricey. MS bowled excellently for his over leaving 12 needed off the last over. A couple of wides assisted Chak De and needing 4 off the last ball managed to squeeze it past Tony, slightly inconsolable, and gifting LCFC with the wooden spork…..</p> <p class="MsoNormal">In a dress rehearsal of the final David Sharples and Kenny Steen managed to provide a rather dull interlude to the day and put on 30 odd for the loss of no wickets. These were chased down rather easily by Eids.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">In the final Eids scored 67 and the Flyers only hopes were dashed in the first and second overs with Barsby being caught and bowled by Mahoney and Skipper Baxter being run out by the occasional Jack in the second over. KFC ended on 45 odd.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span>It is a shame that words can not really describe such a day with just shy of 30 people enjoying themselves enormously.

It was a game that was played in good spirits and was notable for a number of debuts and enthusiasm on both sides. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">2 o’clock, the proposed starting time came and Chak De were ready in their whites sat in a beautiful team building circle with Vish in a ridiculously good mood as always (always a bad sign for the opposition) and cackling away over the 3 different batting orders they had.<span style=""> </span>As for the Kiteflyers team 4 of us were there, with one standing around in pants not sure whether to actually bother getting changed or not in case the rest of the team didn’t turn up. As it turns out they were in the bar and shuffled over for the eventual 2:30 start.</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Manfully taking to the field with 10 players, (I bet you can guess who didn’t show up), the Kiteflyers first over went for about 8 runs. As it turns out that was probably the lowest scoring over of the innings as Chak De piled on the runs amassing a ridiculous 248 for about 6 off their 20 overs. It was however strangely enough, a reasonably enjoyable experience for most of the Kiteflyers many of whom got a chance to bowl. There were some great batting performances, top scorer was Suresh I think with around 50 and lots of other players chipped in here and there. Particularly memorable was the 3 fours he hit in a row of one utterly rubbish Baxter over.<span style=""> </span>E. Xtra got his top score of all time I would imagine too. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">Jimmy on his debut deserves a mention as he got 2 wickets in his one over of er, 12 balls I think. One of the balls was so cr@p however it wasn’t even allowed to be called a wide. Anyway he should be congratulated for getting Vish out on his full debut.<span style=""> </span>In other comedy moments Dave Sharples bowled the best ball of the day (a dot), fell over and then turned to be relieved that his girlfriend and dad were still having lunch by the swimming pool. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">The mist continued to roll in and the Kiteflyers took some great catches and strangely for the score actually fielded quite well. Gerhard must be mentioned for the fine catch he took near the start of the innings. </p> <p class="MsoNormal">After a quick turnaround Abbott and Nick were sent in to chase the small matter of 12.4 runs an over. They started pretty well hitting a couple of lusty blows for four but then Chak De started to turn the screw, bringing an LBW appeal straight off the middle of Abbott’s bat. Needless to say that went down well with the batsman and wickets began to fall. Nick somehow hit the ball behind him to be caught by Kash and the batting order began to disintegrate. Lovely shots included a meaty six by Gav over mid-off and a Dave Sharples four courtesy of Anish’s foot (or knee) which was actually 20m from the boundary at point of contact. </p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style=""> </span>Some good blocking by the lower order kept Chak De at bay until the 14<sup>th</sup> over and the Kiteflyers were eventually all out for around 80. After the last shrieking huddle of the day by Chak De it was time to retire to the bar and strangely enough the mist by now had begun to recede...<a name="_GoBack"></a></p> <script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">_uacct = "UA-3727414-1";urchinTracker();</script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665444450626423665.post-9501530925086914292011-02-08T15:13:00.000-08:002011-02-08T15:15:08.499-08:00<meta charset="utf-8"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: medium; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="text-indent: 0px !important; ">Dear All</span></span><div style="text-indent: 0px !important; font-family: Tahoma; font-size: 10pt; ">As you are probably or should be aware of the Apertura Season begins this weekend.

<br />Well this was definitely a day of cricket. Cricket Peru decided that a new format should be tried. We would play a 20/20 test match in which both teams would play two innings of 20 overs a la test match. In reality it turned into a 20/20, 15./15 over match because in Lima nothing ever starts on time. When one wants someone to turn up on time here you have to be forceful in the way you say to people: ‘Hora Inglesa’…. English Time. For some reason timekeeping is not a strong point amongst the locals. This habit is passed <meta charset="utf-8">fairly seamlessly onto expats and the end result is that foreigners seem to not only accept this tardiness but also manage to be generally later than most Peruvians. By the time everyone arrived and the game was ready to start it was 12:30pm which meant we were already thirty minutes behind schedule. After Gary and Julian managed to sort the teams out in which Vish (current superstar) had been swapped for two good players it was decided we should play a 12 a side game, which is brilliant because many more players are getting a game than normally do. The rules of this game are fairly straightforward in that after both teams bat once and with the next innings they reverse the batting order with the opening bowlers not being allowed to bowl in the second innings until the third change. The net result is that everyone gets a good chance to bat in the match, where normally the tail is ignored and shifted around the field like grazing cattle.
<br />So with Walter winning the toss and deciding to bat Kash and Bobby, who were both playing their first games for the season, hit the ball to all corners of the park and were rather generously allowed to make hay with roughly four catches being put down on the boundary. Gazza at this point was still able to remain cool. The openers put on a respectable partnership of 55 until bobby was out for 2odd Louis GJ was next in and scored rapidly until he was caught of Vish for 52 Kash made an unbeaten 50
<br />(retired) The run rate then dropped dramatically with Rob Champion picking up 3 wickets with wickedly ordinary bowling including the scribes for toe ending a shot a metre wide outside off stump and being picked off by John Bell at point. Julians team managed to put on a respectable score of 143 in the first innings. A defendable score but not amazing.
<br />In response the fielding team started excellently with Umesh removing Abbott for not very many and Vishy also. Champion and Sonnu then laid waste to the bowling with a particularly good partnership of 112, undoubtedly the best of the day. Rob made a chanceless unbeaten 50 (retired) which is a first for him, not the half century but the chancelessness aspect. Sonnu would probably have also had to retire after making his maiden fifty but was out on 47 when his skipper told him his score. Always a kiss of death for this ilk of batsman! Out next ball. Sonnu's innings was not quite as errorfree but Sonnu's golf slap to leg is a mastery in coordination. Gary and John Bell then took the score to 160, 18 ahead of Julian’s team.
<br />Second innings: Gazza’s team won the pissing rights in the first match by beating Julian’s team in 17.5 overs.
<br />Eight minutes later and Owen and Gerhard were opening the batting both on batting debut. The innings started fairly tamely with both openers showing commitment can overcome technique and after 4 overs were 20 odd for none. Chris Mahoney and Kumlesh then came in and both scored half centuries. In one over Mahoney showed excellent eye and pelted Gazz for three sixes. Champion managed to make the scribe his bitch by having him caught behind by Biese for 1. But Julian’s team had stated their claim. Gazza’z team needed 120 to win the game outright off 15 overs. So Tony and Peter came in with Peter not lasting long. Gareth and Tony then set about chasing down the score. Julian’s team were doing their best to make this a realistic possibility especially with some weak fielding and bowling. It was not until Kash and Louis came on did the run rate start becoming difficult for the opposition. Eventually the task became too hard and Gazza had a bit of a tizzy with Anish the wicket keeper who was becoming more vociferous with every over. He was not happy with Anish’s enthusiams. Eventually with the time at 6:20 and the light more than a minor issue Gazza’s team ended up 11 short of the target.
<br />In summary 70 overs were bowled four players scored high forties or fifties. Everyone got a chance to have a decent bat. Tony 38. Owen and Gerhard putting on useful runs and Umesh bowling excellently in the first innings. Late comers Kamlesh and Peter were given a game. Champion achieved a personal best by being both top run scorer (57 not out) and wicket taker (fourfor) in one match. Gazza won the first game which was the most important game if you look at it from a 20/20 perspective but Julian’s team held out and managed to win the two innings games. Both skippers had felt that this was a pretty difficult game to skipper with amount of different tasks to be dealt with. 550 runs were put on the board, at an average of around 8 an over. 11 runs was the difference and Vishy had a hangover!

One one sided game followed by a far better game, runs finally being scored and Vishy not destroying the first innings batting order again (in the second match that is). Hats off to Vishy through great nagging accurate bowling a lesson to all and sundry but much aided by wayward and abject batting, sorry if I offend anyone here. Another Hat trick for Vish, two in two weekends. Is this some kind of record? Should we be submitting this to Wisden? Nuk Fitzpatrick also showed promise with the ball. Viv's team scored 53 runs, Tom Jolly and Chris Mahoney the only ones I think who can hold their heads up proffering some defence, though that man/machine Vish swooped to illustrate why he is also a premier fielder in Lima to snatch Mahones cm's off the turf. In response, Louis RunMachine Grandjean showed why he is a promising new signing for the 20/20's ahead, battering everyone, assisted by Matt Terminator O'Connor who was able to partner Louis admirably. Skipper Gav Breeze, whose birthday we celebrated, also came in and assisted in the 9 wicket debacle.</span></div><div style="line-height: 17px; font-family: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; "><span class="ecxApple-style-span" style="line-height: normal; ">A Second match was rapidly scheduled by the skippers with Viv suggesting to Vish he should sit out the match as this would balance the affair! This rebellion was quietly and quickly quashed and Vish was then handed over to Viv's team like the Black Prince's favourite horse lent to appease the Dauphin in the 100 Years War. It was a better game overall, Vish took wickets again though not as many this time. Gazza was on target this time and quickly swept through a rather brittle lower order with 3 or 4 for not many, until Sonnu and Walter came together and put on 40odd runs and with Saffer Sanford the score was lifted to 117. In response Nick Barsby proved he like smiting the ball lustily, people were whispering on the boundary "ooooh he's a lusty swiper!". He hit a quickfire 37, quickly followed by Kamlesh who's stonemason blows carried the game on until he was caught behind by Gav off Louis GJ's bowling. Hodgson played a great holding innings (36*) he and Gazza wrapped up the match with two overs to go, but not before this happened.......

The venue was Tacna on Peru’s southern border with Chile, a place that has been at the centre of many a dispute between the two countries, usually with Peru coming off second best.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">Tacna is known by most expats in Peru as the place you go to get your tourist visa extended by crossing the border into Chile and then coming back again. It is known by most Limeños for the <i>Zona Franca</i> (Duty free Zone), where you can buy second-hand cars from Japan at knock-down prices. The snag is that the steering wheel has to be moved from right to left, making it a nightmare to work out which way your indicators actually indicate or how on earth the electric window works, assuming you can find the button. </span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">Tacna is also a popular destination for Chilean cosmetic tourists: 6,000 a weekend at the last count. In fact Peru is well known as the place for excellent dentistry at bargain-basement prices. We cricketers knew it as a place where there are a few Pakistani who are handy with bat and ball, mostly employed in the<span style="font-size:+0;"> </span>second-hand car industry (see above), and have been coming to play against us with their Indian cohorts every year since records officially began 12 years ago. </span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">This, as noted above, was the first time cricket has officially been played in Peru outside of Lima unless, of course, there is anything in the rumour that Hiram Bingham and his crew squared off against a Cusco XI at Sacsayhuaman nearly 100 years ago, before going to complete the comparatively unremarkable feat of discovering Macchu Picchu. However, there are no reliable records confirming Bingham as a cricketer. So it was with not a little excitement that the merry crew of ‘Projectile’ Miles (our skipper), ‘Tour Manager’ Hodgy, ‘Devon’ Champion, Chile’s Peter, ‘Saffer’ Tony (with wife and kids in tow), ‘Napoleon’ Walter, ‘Master’ Sergio, Harry Hildebrand (Cricket Peru President), ‘Trini’ Jules (our scorer), Timmy-Boy, Viscount Vishal, ‘Rolling Stone’ Spencer and ‘Have a go’ Hiro headed down south. Not since Fawcett’s 1898 expedition to the Amazon had such a motley band of brothers headed off into the unknown with such an unusual assortment of skills tucked into their trousers</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">The recon party of Miles, Hodgy, Champs, Vishal and Spence established that, yes, the nightlife was indeed up to scratch, especially at a bar called Jethro’s. Enough said there, apart from the fact that our dear own skip forgot to press the ‘Eject from Jethro’s’ button early enough and suffered for it the next day as a result. Hiro preferred the homebrew he had sequestered from a local Tacna farmer earlier in the day. Walter and Nichols (‘Timmy Boy’) had made the amateurish error of arriving at 6:30 in the morning on the day of the first game. Having had no sleep and feeling awful, they joined the others on the bus to the Zona Franca where the Tape-Ball Test was to take place.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">We arrived at the pitch (see pictures in album), which was more like car park than a pitch as such, and not a very oval-looking car park at that; more of a road really. But, to be fair, a wide road with yellow kerbs to indicate the long-on and long-off boundaries, as well as shrubby areas, complete with a resident sheep to keep the grass short, to the leg and off. Behind third man was a car park with endless rows of Corollas (Toyota taxis-in-waiting) poised to create more gridlock in Lima. Behind to leg was a warehouse. Various local rules had to be explained: anything into the Corollas was a dead ball and anything into the warehouse would be bowled again also. Yellow kerb and over was a 6 and an imaginary line to the mid-off and midwicket areas made up the remaining boundaries. The Tacnites (not to be confused with the Tacnashites) had parked their high-rolling Mitsubishis and Nissans in that menacing Essex-boy fashion, which meant if the ball went that way it would be quite annoying to retrieve the ball from under the car. There was no LBW (that confused a fair number of us at first), which made it good policy to stand squarely in front of your stumps at all times. No Leg byes either. The wickets closely resembled my old school radiators, which you would touch in the madly optimistic hope that they were actually on during the coldest winter nights. They were also at least 50% wider than normal wickets. Innings were eight overs with bowlers permitted up to two overs each. The wicket offered little for our spinners to work with and the tape ball moved rather predictably, neither swinging nor dipping. The wicket also had a ridiculous camber which provoked much discussion amongst the Limeños as to where the ball should be pitched (pre or post camber?).</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">On to the action. We were informed that an average score was 90 to 100 runs off eight overs. Tacna got off to a flyer largely thanks to XXXXXX. He came into face Saffer Tony who was feeling pretty good about the world, having bowled a dot ball and claimed his first scalp, respectively, with his first two deliveries. The next four balls were 6, 6, 6 and 6, in that order. After managing to contain them to 110 odd, we scratched about with bats akin to the ones Matthew Hayden is making popular in the IPL. Distant relatives several time removed of oars would be a more apt term. Miles our regal skip made a golden and promptly went and chucked up in a bush. Tim got something whose chemical sign is Ag and goes quack. We were rubbish. In fact we were really rubbish in all three games and were literally taken apart by a team who knew their road better than they knew the insides of their palms! Their only hiccough came in the final match when we had managed score 68 odd and then had them at 2 for 3 after Vishy had dismissed what was probably their batting order in reverse except for the player who had skinned Tony in the first match and whose foot had finally failed to stop the ball hitting the stumps. However, after a bit more projectile vomiting from Miles, the Hulk arrived and promptly smacked us all over the [car]park (yours truly’s over went for 20 odd) allowing Tacna to consolidate their third win. Tim Nicholls should also be mentioned in dispatches for making 24 and 40 odd in thongs...</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">You might think that Lima would be dejected but no, we were joyous for a number of reasons: first, Hiro had scored some beers, though strangely Miles was not imbibing; second, we were playing cricket outside of Lima for the first time; and, third, we were away from Lima where the grey and damp rather gets to you after a while. The combination of these three factors meant we were as happy as pigs in the proverbial. The oppo on the other hand seemed a bit miffed we weren’t the least bit put out by the shellacking we had just received. Ah, it was all about the camber and, as Hodgy said, “This was no place for sheep.”</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">Options afterwards were a massage, medicinal pisco sours, or a kip before dinner at one of our gracious hosts’ houses. 10% opted for the massage, 30% for pisco, 30% kip, and the other 20% still hadn’t arrived from Lima. Despite Tacna’s evening nip in the air dinner was a delicious chicken and salad. And afterwards it was back to Jethro’s to see if we could locate Vishy’s camera that had oddly gone missing the night before. Jethro’s – Thank you for the Rolling Stones Beggars banquet record! Spencer turned into Eric the Viking that night. Harry and his one man Hoax Act did not go down a storm in Tacna.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">Waking up to Tour Managers Hodgy’s hairy arse was not the most inspiring moment of the weekend but I did discover a perfect remedy for a hangover this weekend. Bottle of Inca Cola, Mixed Fruit Juice, Coffee, ham and eggs, dry toast and two ibuprofen. Works a treat. Off we went to the National stadium to the supposedly 2000 odd adoring fans, the mayor, the minister for sport and other local dignitaries. When we got there it was bloody hot and there were certainly not 2000 people but short of one of the big cricket playing nations are you ever going to get such a big crowd? In fairness there were about 300 fans that came to spectate at different times during the day. This included the players themselves. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">After quite alot of dignitary glad handling such as special photos of both teams, teams together, teams apart, 25 different photos of the mayor with various members of both Lima and Tacna Communities, photos with team wags, photos with team mascots, we eventually went out to look at the mat that had been laid out in the middle of the pitch. Mattress companies would have been proud of the softness of the wicket. But heyho we were here in Tacna and playing cricket. This was the equivalent of the Nat West Final, or Gillette Final for those of us a little more nostalgic. Better get out there and do our best! A quick motivational speech from Miles, who had now recovered somewhat since the previous evenings shenanigans, and has finally turned his losing toss streak around (3 wins out of 4), and after throwing the first ball to the mayor to hit we got underway. Chris and Harry opened and it was not pretty. Due to the slowness of the pitch our boys were not able to get in line and time the ball with the usual aplomb they achieve back home at the LCFC. Although in fairness our pitch can be as slow as this onewe were playing on. When the ball was hit in the outfield it rarely travelled along the ground further than ten yards, areal attack was very dicey as hitting the ball into the air required Bradmanesque like timing. So the net result most of our boys got out either giving catching practice to the ring of fielders around the bat or playing and missing. Viscount Vishal held us afloat. Prior to him coming in we were worrying about whether Tacna could actually finish us off in one over! Vishy managed to score 32 valuable runs. I put 20 runs on with the Viscount before being dismissed in such a way it provided much mirth to those on the boundary. Let me describe it. My nemesis of yore, Javed, was bowling his dastardly leg spin and at this point I had been in for sometime, scratching around for 7 when I thought a lusty blow would be a good idea. The ball came down leg, or so I thought, but due to the variable bounce of the pitch it decided to roll the rest of the way to the wicket. I dived backwards, no not really dived, but fell backwards in the way a tree falls in a forest, in the hope that I could get my bat back into the crease before being stumped. The ball hit the wicket. Apparently if my bat had landed to the left or the right a bit it would have changed the trajectory of said ball and my wicket would have been saved. It still looked ridiculous. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">After marching to 88 runs and a quick turnaround we managed to get a couple of breakthroughs but our score was never enough and they achieved the target in 20 odd overs. It was pretty disheartening because if we had managed to score another 40 odd runs we may have had enough to play with as it was such a difficult wicket. But that’s life and we’ll never know! Speeches followed, Harry avoided his Fidel Castro style overtures and once again thanked all the Tacnites for having us and hoping that this was the beginning of something great for Peru.</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify; LINE-HEIGHT: normal; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 13ptfont-family:times new roman;" class="MsoNormal" ><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;">Chicken and Rice and exchange of shirts later we were on the minibus back to the centre of town to wait four hours until our flight back to Lima. These four hours were what tour is all about. With pisco sours in hand and exhausted after putting our bodies and minds through the ringer we dissected life. The conversation ranged from homeschooling to dentistry, to the qualities of the waitress (heart of gold but a face like a robbers dog), to the state of Hodgy’s hat and the christening of a new expression for having a quick one off the wirst (a hodgy), to the merits of having a hodgy on the plane or at Birmingham New street Station (the juries still out on that one), to the ethical principles of Spence removing the Rolling Stones record from the wall etc..... As you can read the level of conversation hit rock bottom fairly quick. </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:100%;"></span></p><br /><br /><p class="MsoNormal" style="font-family:times new roman;"><span style="LINE-HEIGHT: 115%;font-size:100%;" lang="EN-GB" >In summary what did we learn about going to Tacna? That we weren’t very good at playing tapeball in the Zona Franca. Miles, nor many of us are young men anymore and Cuba Libre’s and Beer don’t mix. Hodgy doesn’t need a clipboard. Spencer is a Berserker in disguise. Harry could be a stand up comedian if he wanted to be. Rob smiled for the whole weekend. Juliet was admirable in all she did. I am no longer Peter’s master. Tony did brilliantly with his entire family their. Tim Nichol and Vishy returned with their heads held up with pride to Lima. Sergio was a stalwart.

Train Driver Miles is driving his carriages along as much as is humanly possible with this Home Guard but slowly and surely the ball is coming in harder, people have nearly forgotten what is playing across the line and Barnesy has admitted to British heritage, in fact of the squad Nine players have direct lineage to the Greatest of Britain, including Saffer Tone! Obviously this is after we have removed our red sashes and stopped singing 'Somos Libres Seamoslo Siempre.'<br />If I may be so bold to go through the squad pinpointing the strengths and skirting over the blemishes:<br /><br />The Dossier<br /><br />Miles 'Firing on all Cylinders' Buesst.<br />Secretary PCA<br /><br />Right Hand Fast, Attacking Batsman, To say extremely useful all rounder would be to put it mildly. Miles is capable of fiery spells and is able to dominate the opposition with his clean hitting. Scored two centuries last season as well as a number of useful 50's while skippering the Kiteflyers. The new Captain of the Peruvian Red Caps will have something to prove and it will be great to see him drive Peru on to new heights.<br /><br />Chris 'Goochie' Abbott<br />Ex-President PCA<br /><br />Opening Bat. Wicket Keeper: Chris has been in the Peruvian squad since time immemorial. Around him have innings often been built. Always one to provide guiding advice with batting partners and also anyone in a bar later. Chris brings to mind the poem 'If' by Rudyard Kipling. Chris was instrumental in Peru joining the ICC and many other development plans.<br /><br />Harry 'Crook' Hildebrand<br />President PCA<br /><br />Opening/Middle order Bat. Occasional loopy nonsense. Harry like Chris has been with the Peruvian squad forever and is the most hospitable of hosts, infact everyone knows Harry. Ever heard that joke about Bob and the Pope? and the guy turns around and says 'dunno about you but who's that guy standing next to Bob?' Well that is Harry. A useful die hard batsman who is as hard to get out as a winkle on the Titanic. Harry provides positivity and optimism to the squad.<br /><br />Hans 'Red Hot' De Witt<br /><br />Middle Order Batsman, Medium Pace Bowler: Hans is an ever present in the squad as well. Hans is also the Fish Oil Man, what he doesn't know about fish oil isn't worth writing about. Hans our Dutch representative played county cricket in Holland before making his way over to Peru and has not lost his touch. A very useful batsman who has scored many useful knocks in the past. Looking to lose his Blackberry on the way to the ground in order to provide 150% concentration to the game in hand.<br /><br />Nadeem Ahmed Ansari<br /><br />One to watch: Nadeem, international man of mystery, is a fine striker of the ball and the most committed of players on the field of battle. Last tour was inconsolable after losing his wicket. Both a useful spin bowler and able to bowl at serious pace. Was Voted Most Valuable Player in Peru last season with searing knocks for Chak De, the eventual winners, in the 20/20 tournaments. Bound to have at least one great innings this tour.<br /><br />Simon Walter<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Military Medium Swing Bowler. Simon has played for Peru for some time now, a useful batsman who has held the bottom order together on a number of occasions. His prowess in the field is well known with a laser like throw from the boundary, not one to push easy singles on. Husband to the lovely Karla and father to my nieces Camila and Luciana.<br /><br />Tony Sanford<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Off Spin Bowler. Tony has bowled Peru into winning positions before, remember Brazil. Able to use his off spin as an aggressive weapon or stem the flow of runs at will. Tony is the resident Saffer in the squad bringing all the bristle that comes with it.<br /><br />Mike Soulsby<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Medium Pace Bowler. Mike has been in Peru some years, plying his mangoes around the world. A reliable all rounder who plays with a straight bat. Plays very much in the manner of his mentor Chris Tavare but occasionally been known to play more attacking strokes. Should come good this tour.<br /><br />Dinesh Lakmal Wijesinghe Ekanayake<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Medium Pace Bowler: Dinesh top scored for Peru in the last Championships, and after hitting a useful 50 against Chile last time around, was compiling a useful innings in the last match until he was injured. Known for his permanent smile and positive disposition as well as his ability to hit sixes.<br /><br />Paul'Barnesy' Barnes<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Fast Right Hand Bowler: Paul, recently married, is a newcomer to the Peruvian squad. He is a strong clean hitter of the ball and is able to use his late swing to great effect. Expectations will be high with Paul this tournament in early innings breakthroughs.<br /><br />John 'Ding, Dong' Bell<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Dobber of repute: John is well known for long innings and is difficult to dismiss once his eye is in. John is the Skipper of Eidegenossen and recently was responsible for the construction of Peru's second cricket wicket. Useful middle order batsman.<br /><br />Chris Hodgson 'Green'<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Very Very Occasional Bowler: Chris, also recently married, is the opening bat for LCFC and has scored some useful knocks in the past. He is another newcomer to the squad and will be looking to impress this tournament. Reserve Coach.<br /><br />Julian Walter<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Left Arm Spin: Scribe of the blog, also recently married to the Gorgeous Gladys Julian is known for forthright views on Cricket(generally wrong, thought that Bopara was the new Nasser....), Skipper of the LCFC, Has been known to bowl well, but very occasionally. He is a useful middle order batsman who can accelerate the scoring once his eye is in.<br /><br />Sonnu<br /><br />Right Hand Flayer, Malinga Like Bowler: Sonnu is also a newcomer to the squad, useful in the field and also with the bat once in. Looking to make his mark this tournament<br /><br />Syed<br /><br />A new face in the squad, Syed is also a batsman looking to make his mark on the team. A former prodigy of the cricket school of Rashid Latif, the one-time captain/wicket-keeper of the Pakistan national team, he is the driving force behind Cricket Peru’s Southern Chapter in Tacna.<br /><br />Coach: Blake Rutherford<br /><br />Right Hand Bat, Medium Pace Bowler: Blake has joined the ranks this year and has been applying his Aussie Sports Technology Degree to good effect. Thorugh his tutelage the Red Caps have become stronger, faster and younger, yes! Younger! The magic serum that he dispenses in training sessions is having phenomenal effects!<br /><br />Go Red Caps!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 236px; height: 36px;" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tbody><tr height="12"><td class="xl65" height="12" width="100"><br /></td><td class="xl65" width="136"><br /><br /></td> <!--EndFragment--> </tr> </tbody></table><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />_uacct = "UA-3727414-1";<br />urchinTracker();<br /></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665444450626423665.post-53655525617532203762009-02-07T05:58:00.000-08:002009-02-07T22:08:16.236-08:00Season Opener<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"><br /></script>Back to basics, the maxim of the beginning of a cricket season, line and length, straight bat, into the wicketkeeper, no silly running, body behind the ball, two hands fielding etc. These are the simple instructions that goes through a cricketers head when he is oiling up his mind and body for the coming months. However it is never that simple, when faced with stifling heat, a dodgy outfield and a body that isn't quite as lithe and reactive as it used to be.<br />On a day that shall be known as the Viv Ash Cuba Libre opener, twenty five young men turned out to do battle on rapidly degrading outfield through excessive soccer activities. The wicket won't be ready for a couple of weeks yet as it was laid only a month hence. It should be briefly added that twenty five is an impressive stat as the season has opened with just thirteen before and improvisation has been the order of the day. It is good news too as it means games will start on time this season as people will have to arrive early to ensure selection.<br />So back to the cricket, sunny conditions, Harry and Miles captains, picking two teams from a motley crew, seven unknown quantities, and the four Captains of the Lima League teams considering incentives to attract fresh blood into their teams, that is if these guys could cut the mustard. Harry's team batted first, Chris Abbott back from his International Baccalureate sabatical and Chris Hodgson opening. A rank longhop soon accounted for Chris A playing uppishly to a wide one and being taken by Eids skipper John Bell at midoff. Chris Hodgson was unlucky to be out of his ground when the batsman at the other end drove and the new young 15 year old Indian, Vikram, managed to deflect it onto the stumps. Dave Murphy did not last long though it must be said he was in a muh better condition than a fortnight ago when he had to play in sandals because he had cut his foot, dancing with poles apparently.<br />The middle order of Ed, Kamlesh and Harry, managed to tick over, adding 17, 43 and 35 respectively, but were never really able to get away. eventually they managed to post a score of 141 in 30 overs. Would it be enough?<br />After a steak sandwich and a swig of pop, the lads went back out and Jorge and John B were quickly into there strides both hitting useful twenties, though Jorge would have been back in the hutch with scores on zero if the opposition captain had not managed to spill something that could be described as a sitter. But ah, early season bloopers thats all. Miles team managed to accumulate the runs without really having to perform heroics and the scores reached parity with an over to go, the scribe having walloped a four over midon and then contrived to run himself out calling for an insane single. Anis managed to run himself out and it looked like Harry's team would pull off an unlikely tie, but alas it was not to be and Sonu quietly biffed the winning runs over the tightening ring of fielders.<br />Game over, quick beer in the pub for those without overdue commitments, a sound start to the season, LCFC's One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary, Great stuff.<br />Special mention should be made to Ed (17 and 1 for 17 off 6), Matt Spry( 5 and 1 for 22 off 6), Vikram (duck but 2 for 25 off 5), Shane, Anis (18 runout, puffed), Sanjiv, Phil and Matt for all making Debut.<br />Who's up for it next Sunday? Arrive early to avoid disappointment.<br />Thanks for Now<br /><br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />_uacct = "UA-3727414-1";<br />urchinTracker();<br /></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665444450626423665.post-30270736548093729672008-12-18T06:05:00.000-08:002008-12-18T06:15:08.121-08:003rd Annual Cricket Veloz TournamentCeviche and Conchas<br />In Limas fair city, where the girls are so pretty<br />We had the 3rd annual tournie of cricket veloz<br />The Flyers and Chak De and the Eidegenonessen<br />with Lima cricket all setting up there store for battle ahead<br />Crying ceviche and conchas a wide a wide O<br />A Wide, a wide – O!

The same four teams from the previous year, Lima Cricket, Kite Flyers, Eidegenossen, and Chak De, limbered up for battle. A motley crew they were too. This year the teams were a little light. It seems new blood is required for the year ahead. Most teams aside from the Swiss Interest Team were light. On average 9 players showed for each team. In the Lima team, the first girl played in the tournament, in the unlikely guise of Emily Jones. She did not let them down too, it should be added.<br />First off, Lima cricket were against Eidegenossen, and were never really at the races after being skittled out for 50, only Soulsby M carried his bat, but the rest were about as useful as a Lilo in Afghanistan. The Eids of December were fairly useful in their return and Geraint, the name of a million pronunciations, led a merry charmed life planting the ball over the wall seemingly every other ball. They won in no time at all, except for the waiting for the ball to be returned. For Lima Cricket it was a little like pulling teeth out in slow motion. At the same time Chak De were setting the trend for the day and Kite Flyers were able to post a most handsome target of around 150 (sorry no stats to hand), but it should be quickly added that of this 58 were wides. Chak De were never able to really mount a proper reply and could not make that score, they lost by twenty plus runs.<br />In the second round, Eidegenossen who played Chak De as a well oiled unit, with Gdman H, Aka loud Welsh git with Panama hat, providing commentary for the hard of hearing in Callao. Chak de were light of their usual arsenal of fast Mumbai Locomotives. It was Prabhu’s last day of cricket in Peru and as honorary captain he was not able to muster the usual grittiness from the team. Maybe it was because the umpires had to be their fro their own team and thus couldn’t justify getting annoyed with them as much as they normally do! Anyway they lost again and the Eids were cock-a-ring, sorry, cock a hoop at the fact they had loads more better players than any other team….. <br />Quickly onto the other game, sorry if this commentary only really talks about the Lima Cricket in detail, it’s just that the scribe was playing for that team. So after being kicked around like a 8 defenseless cocker spaniel puppies, the skipper decided to inject some Jack Russell into them and they duly delivered. The deciding moment of that game was Ben Jones’ two wickets in one over, including the all important wicket of Bully Buesst, this spurred the growling terriers into worrying the oppo into casi-capitulation, and the last man was caught by Walter J with the score on 108. Lima cricket were fairly hasty in the response, and yet again wides were by far the highest scorers. The tactic of not doing ANYTHING, I MEAN ANYTHING, RASH was instilled in the players mind and as the ball kept flying down leg or way outside off the score slowly climbed. Batsmen were congratulating themselves on 8 run overs where they had contributed, zero of the runs from the bat. The question must be asked now, is this really cricket? From an aesthetic point of view one would have trouble justifying it. A skillful perspective could be asked for, and one would have to say it had a distinctly unskillful perspective. But from a bloody minded win at all costs, it was glorious! <br />Lima cantered home with four overs to spare and marking up their first victory of the day. Special mention should be made to James Bailey who contributed hugely to wide-aggregation as well as registering his first wicket. “How did you do it”, he was asked? “Oh, its because I was pissed….”, said the perpetual bench warmer.<br />So, in the final round, it could have been a case of three potential winners, if the Flyers could stop the Megasaurus Eids, and Lima beat Chak De then it would have been down to Harry doing his best twiddling of figures and contriving victory for one of the teams. But it was not to be, the Eids duly delivered, outscoring and outplaying the Flyers, while Lima Cricket dispatched Chak De with the underwiding tactic so successfully employed in the previous match.<br />All in all, it was a most enjoyable day, the WAGS and children behaved themselves too, Paul should be congratulated for his recent announced engagement, and best wishes to Will Hurtado for his impending marriage down under, plus belated congrats to Harry for his newborn. Special thanks to CHIMU ADVENTURES for sponsoring the match.<br />Roll on the first of February for the first game of the season. Don’t forget the 20/20 tournament also.\<br />Merry Christmas Everyone<br /><br /><script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"><br /></script><br /><script type="text/javascript"><br />_uacct = "UA-3727414-1";<br />urchinTracker();<br /></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665444450626423665.post-74928948004261878222008-10-30T06:27:00.000-07:002008-10-30T08:51:12.084-07:00INDOOR CRICKET UP AND RUNNING!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfSRxCAO4llFvnCOfMXq2RcqVnG9yHPodc54XvWti5-Cxh289SgwC5o_sZTMhcxbyHOcTy427YJNTJcKZVpz65jLPdTDQlnPdZGMEQgC_ZbFiiAgWGuqMvnMwpyqVP_fC9WW3Hp1pvph8/s1600-h/Rollerball1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 90px; height: 90px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfSRxCAO4llFvnCOfMXq2RcqVnG9yHPodc54XvWti5-Cxh289SgwC5o_sZTMhcxbyHOcTy427YJNTJcKZVpz65jLPdTDQlnPdZGMEQgC_ZbFiiAgWGuqMvnMwpyqVP_fC9WW3Hp1pvph8/s320/Rollerball1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5262974120557488626" border="0" /></a>

<![endif]--> <p class="MsoNormal">Like James Caan and his team from the 1975 classic movie, Rollerball, the lads of the PCF have got together for gladiatorial skirmishes prior to the Cricket Veloz tournament in December. There they meet on Wednesday Evening in the dim gloom, as if Markham School had just celebrated Diwali and the smoke still lingering in the air. The lads are there sharpening their spikes, stepping up with the crunching tackles, circling around the witches hat in the coliseum menacingly because the action was about to begin.
<br />Bells Crack Troops were inserted. <span style=""> </span>18 overs of nonstop mayhem ensued, Bell and Walter S imprinting <span style=""> </span>44 runs on the walls of the gym. Followed by Kash and Will with more crunching shots and fast action between the wickets. The bowling could have been tighter and catches should have been caught, but the leather underpants Geraint was wearing were chaffing and Jones B had blood in his eyes....
<br />Tony Sanford in diving to save his bin aka wicket took a square metre of paint off the wall. And forever it shall be known as Tony's mark. A suspected broken rib was the result.
<br />In response Walter J's team started well with Dan and Mango Mike batting sensibly putting 40 odd on for the opening partnership. and the young whippersnapper Lachy scored 11. But that was when the wheels fell off the rollerblades and the team disintegrated into ashes and dust and cogs and springs. First Tim fell in valiant battle, followed by Geraint who lashing the ball into the stands was then lynched by the oppo for his efforts. Walter and Jones came spinning into the Colly and desperately tried to stem the heamorraging occurring but it was not enough and Walter's team fell on their swords at the end, handing the victory to the Bellbeaters.
<br />From the ashes the Phoenix shall rise.</p> <script type="text/javascript"><br />_uacct = "UA-3727414-1";<br />urchinTracker();<br /></script>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-665444450626423665.post-3754999248307067632008-10-15T20:11:00.000-07:002008-10-15T20:14:48.726-07:00Cusco get a game<script src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js" type="text/javascript"><br /></script>7 men and an alpaca played in the shadow of Sacsayhuaman (pronounced sexy woman), brilliantly organized by Gary Sargent and his cohorts.
