We are delighted to report that the Old Cranleighan Cricket Club have won through to the final of the prestigious Cricketer Cup where we will play 14-time winners Old Tonbridgians. In our semi-final we routed last year’s champions Shrewsbury Saracans by 195 runs after bowling them out for 33.
The final will take place at Wimbledon Cricket Club on Sunday, August 18 starting at 11.00am. Wimbledon CC is right next to the All England Club and can be found at Church Road, SW19 5AG.
We are hoping to make the day quite an event with as many Old Cranleighans in attendance as possible so everyone is invited. Aside from the cricket the organisers say there will be a champagne and Pimm’s tent, a barbeque, a bouncy castle, and an ice-cream van as well as full bar and restaurant facilities. As in previous years, spectators are encouraged to bring picnics to eat around the boundary.
