My apologies for the lack of a report for this game, but nothing was written at the time and there is only an outside chance that anything will be

Statistical Notes: Daniel made his first ever century for the club, becoming the nineteenth player to score one hundred or more in an innings, whilst bettering his previous zenith (against the same opponents last year) by just shy of fifty runs. His 117 is the fifteenth highest individual score by a Badger and the 134 that he and Dean put on together was the fifth highest for the second wicket. Ten of those eighteen made more than one ton for the Badgers but there was often a considerable gap between numbers one and two (Dave Tickner took nearly 22 years to register his second) so there is no pressure Dan (unless you care to chase Jake who did it in back to back games).

The 277 the Badgers posted was our highest ever team score, surpassing the 270 made at Tadworth in 2022, whilst the home side’s 226 is the most runs we have ever conceded after batting first, tying the (winning) total made by Seven Sports in 2006.

Sam Eade became our first debutant of 2024 earning a baptism of fire bowling his three overs whilst the opposition’s fourth wicket pair were in full flow. Hopefully that will be the first of many to come Sam.

Billy’s two catches took him past Mick Willmott into 13th place on the lifetime outfield catches list whilst the frugal 29 runs conceded during his eight overs were nonetheless sufficient to take him past Wardy into 17th place on the all-time runs allowed slate. There are three other bowling stalwarts not far ahead of him before he starts chasing Vinny in 13th spot.
