A factual match report for the game vs Clapham Nomads on 24th June 2018.
2pm start, toss lost by Charlie, Nomads chose to bat first. 1st Innings, Clapham Nomads, 6-245 off 35 overs. Bowling performances
Other Notes Multiple people reported seeing Robert leap in to the air and catch (single handed) a ball that by rights (and previously accepted laws of physics) should have comfortably sailed over him. That sounds unlikely though - so I am putting it down to sun-induced hallucination. The Clapham Nomads were very generous with both wides and no ball calls for which the Plastics are thankful. The Plastics' field settings during this game can be best described as “round”. <<< Interval >>> MR Trivia - A thermoSETTING plastic is a plastic that hardens when heat is applied to it. A thermoSOFTENING plastic melts when heated. The Plastics XI are part of the latter group. <<<Interval Ends>>>> 2nd Innings - Plastics all out for 84 off 28.1 overs. Batting summary
Other Notes If the Plastics had batted their full allocation of overs, the game would have finished at an absurd hour. Everyone should be thankful that we did not. MR Trivia - Part 2. Matt Webb owns a solid gold phone. Match Statistics
Special Thanks Credit to M. Webb for providing this week's headline - and Alex for his highly rated (and R-rated) erotic commentary throughout the day (dog!). The next game will be in somewhere in or near Croydon and will take place on Sunday 1st of July.

THE TEAMFormed from a collection of players who met on the internet via social cricket at Archbishop's Park, Plastics XI represents the foolhardy members of that group who decided they wanted a bash at proper cricket instead of playing with plastic balls. The team's ability is best described as "weak-weak". Luckily, our social media game is much stronger. Find us on: Archives
