May 30, 200719 yr I guess I missed the season this year I used to play in a sunday afternoon league in the UK and I can't bear to spend the rest of my life without being able to take my bat in my hand and give those balls a good wallop. I was looking around for cricket options in Phuket and found phuketcricket.com Are there a lot of teams in Phuket? And what is the standard? Is there a lot of competition for places? Is it all 6s or 11-a-side games too? For me it's a chance to have a bit of competitive cameraderie and get to know a few people doing one of the things I love. Would be interested to hear from anyone who knows anything...

This consists of 4 teams with skill levels that cover the entire spectrum. We also go on tours to other places within Thailand & abroad & also host incoming sides, the next one being a bunch of lads from Zimbabwe who are coming back for the second year in a row. They return in July so weather permitting we'll get a game or 2 with them, else its off to Soi Bangla to talk up what could've been. You have the web-site correct www.phuketcricket.com which is in the middle of being updated/upgraded. If you want more info & to be kept up-to-date with cricket in Phuket, PM me & I'll add you to the PCU e-mail list & let you know the next time we give our balls a good walloping. Cheers
