Every year I
organise a social cricket game and invite lots of friends together for an enjoyable
afternoon of cricket, sledging and alcoholic beverages.
This Cricket
Challenge series has been running annually since December 2001 and is becoming
increasingly popular because of the way the Cricket Challenge combines the competitive
nature of a game of one-day cricket, with the social feel of an afternoon in
the summer sun.
