King Cricket published the match report for this day in September 2015 – click here to read it.
Not much to add or explain. I started a running gag about Charley “The Gent” Malloy’s bottle of wine in this earlier piece. But apart from that, nothing fancy or obscure.
King Cricket match reports have strict rules: “If it’s a professional match, on no account mention the cricket itself. If it’s an amateur match, feel free to go into excruciating detail.”
If you do want to know about the cricket itself, you might want to have a look at the on-line scorecard – here. New Zealand were making hay that day and it looked like one of those Lord’s tests that could only end up a draw unless England messed-up the third innings – how wrong we were. Of course the King Cricket report is silent on such details.
