The Send Off
The Send Off
Club cricket, at its heart, is a social sport, played by eleven individuals that dreamed of being elite sportspersons. Some, still do. And in this village green battle of middle aged dreamers and county schools teenagers, nothing is sweeter than getting out a batter and giving them a volley of emotion - and probably swearing. Some are more successful than others, they might make your teammates laugh, the batter throw a tantrum or fire up the tailenders yet to come in; but nothing will beat that moment, The Send Off.
