Records

[DJellett]

This is a thread for backyard cricket records, to determine the true backyard cricket legends...the rules are as following:

1. All records MUST have been made AFTER this thread is posted
ie. No old records
2. Records MUST be made against people of equal age OR skill to you.
ie. No 350's against 9 year old's unless they are as good as you
(In which case you may not want to admit that )
3. Records MUST be made on a filed of regulation Backyard Cricket size
ie. 10m X 10m (no 1m boundaries)
4. NO LYING!

More rules may be added as we go along.
Good Luck!

The records sheet is below.
