With the head to head score now standing at five wins to four in favour of the 'Pink's, after two close victories in the last two seasons and with the weather set fair we are expecting another enjoyable high scoring game given the true wicket, fast outfield and short boundaries.

As captain Jim is on holiday, Big Mike will skipper the side today in an overs clash.  Nick and Ali make their first appearances of the season and today's captain will be looking to them and the rest of the team to maintain their recent winning run which has been driven by some fantastic bowling performances.

The match will start at 1:30 pm and players are advised to get to the ground by 1:00 pm for the pre-match socially distanced banter and big match build up.

The address of the ground is: Thaxted CC, Bardfield End Green, Thaxted, Dunmow, Essex, CM6 3PZ and parking is in the field across the road from the square.

In play Twitter and tea updates will, hopefully, be provided as per normal (@RosaneriCricket).
