As you can see we have managed to cobble 11 together. The team may have been thrown together at the last minute, but we head into the clash against The Queens Head full of confidence following our 3 wicket win on Friday night.
The match is a home game at Lincoln Road and it is due to get underway at 2pm. The exact format of the game will be decided by the Captains at the time of toss. Players are advised to get to the ground for 1.15pm.
This match last year up at Southgate provided a real test for the pinks and victory was only secured when Paul Sindrey took a spectacular catch when he dived over the square leg umpire.
The Queens Head are likely to field a classic mix of a couple of top players, a few steady eddies and the rest to make up the numbers.
Fielding will be vital and a tight finish could easily be on the cards again. We must concentrate on every element of our game and pull together as a team.
