There’s cricket, and then there’s Cricket, and then there’s the Queries versus The Frogs! This fixture goes back a long way: we love it: we meet our friends year on year: we have good games. Today was no exception. Not that it felt like that at the start. Queries won the toss

A Drawn Match at Hinton

We managed a draw at Hinton Charterhouse today. Gloriously hot day, too hot for some, a lightening outfield, short leg side boundary and a declaration game in prospect. We batted first and reached 110 before the first wicket fell. It was Peter Mountstephen for 41. Then Jack Grant retired when

An Historic Match against the Wiltshire u19s XI

Today we played an historic match against the Wiltshire u19s XI, at Marlborough College. Both XIs included a lot of talent, there was a Breast Cancer fund raising event riding on the back of it, there was a goodish crowd there to watch, and it was a hot day. Queries

The Incogniti beat us comfortably

Queries vs Royal Artillery CC, Larkhill

It was a chastening day for the Queries at Larkhill, slipping to a 200+ run defeat against a strong Royal Artillery side. The hosts opted to bat and got off to a flying start - so there was much relief when Dave Bromley's swing bowling removed Graham Wiseman in the eighth

QUERIES MATCH DRAWN AT KING’S SCHOOL BRUTON

It was a lovely sunny day at Bruton this afternoon, tempered only by a constant wind which gusted strongly from time to time. Late drop-outs following yesterday's league cricket meant the Queries had to borrow three players from the school 2nd XI and they fitted in to the side really
