The O60s programme was back in action this week. The O70s matches though on Thursday were hit by the weather.

Our star cameo guest this week is Wales scorer Judith Tucker. Regular listeners will know that what seems like several years ago (given how often he mentions it) Grant had to retire with an injury v Wales and in the scorebook he was listed as 'Retired Out' which he disputed! I caught up with Judith during the Cornwall v Wales match this week to revisit that decision!

Grant and I spent our episode prep time this week eagerly awaiting news of the England and England Lions squads to face the West Indies - mainly to see if the selectors agreed with the squads we picked!

With the exception of one match the rain wiped out Tuesdays O60s programme with the only other O60s match played this week being the one that saw Hertfordshire beat Buckinghamshire in the carried over 3rd XI Vase Final.

The O70s had a full programme this week which we cover.

With so little O60s Cricket to report on we focused our attention on the England O60s matches and our thoughts on what the selectors will have learnt from the games between England and Wales, England and Scotland and England Lions and Scotland as they look ahead to the West Indies series starting on June 16th.

Have they settled on an opening pair? How many ‘seamers’ will get selected? Who will be first choice keeper? Will it be time to say goodbye to some of the stalwarts?

We followed the matches where possible on You Tube and we reflect on what we saw.

The O60s and O70s county cricket championships are underway with matches in the O60s 1st and 2nd XI competitions and the O70s 2nd and 3rd XI competitions.

We review what happened including the O60s Div 2 Cup Final carried over from 2024 between Wales and Oxfordshire.

One week in and we’ve already seen some incredible performances including in O60s Div 1 North a match featuring two massive hundreds and almost 650 runs plus in Div 1 South two five-fors. We're had a player going from a combined 0-84 in 2024 to a match winning 6-43 in the first game of 2025.

We've had matches won and lost on the last ball, collapses and revivals, a couple of hit wickets and the first matches as a county championship for the O70s Div 3.

We've had glorious weather, scones with jam first, scones with cream first and four all run fours in one innings.

What a fantastic start to 2025!
