RemiseIn een grijs verleden, toen ik in ons eerste zelf nog een balletje mocht bowlen (voor sommigen om duistere redenen) stond ons elftal nog al eens met de terug tegen de muur. RR
CRICKETCricketers en fans beschouwen Cricket als de mooiste sport op de wereld. Waarom? VRA heeft een visie voor de toekomst. Haar beleid is mede gericht om jeugd een goede training en begeleiding te geven. Jonge talenten kunnen daardoor goed worden opgeleid. De club voorziet de Jeugd training van allerlei faciliteiten. Welke termen moet iedere jeugdige cricketer kennen? Ik denk, dat jullie voor deze week weer genoeg termen hebben geleerd. Denk er om…..volgende Practice in de Kooi……wil ik weten of jullie deze termen kennen. Ik zal jullie dan precies uitleggen wat het is. Mohammad Munaf Alberts
VRA II 2 - Kampong, or was it going to be another VRA 2 v Cantrell? Their batting got off to the same bad start we we had: within four overs they were tow down. Cantrell looked the same solid self as always, but Juriaans speed made him leave the pitch with only 10 runs behind his name. Sidhu put on a big fight, scoring 70 in the end. This was a win well deserved, proving that we can put up a fight and play very decent cricket, good enough for this league. We will need this confidence as we'll be facing VVV (away in Deventer) and R&W (away in Haarlem) this weekend, before we finish off against Hercules at home.

HCC Zami - VRA Zami 2 259 ao - 118 aoOn the way to the Hague there was heavy rain so we had mobile contact with the guys from HCC1 if the game was still on and we decided to have a at least a cup of coffee if the game was to be called off. And what came for them as a surprise the sun came and the sky cleared, this is normal for us (happy people happy..... ). I think the the game had a few highlights, Diederik`s and Guido`s bowling, and Rowan`s Batting. These where in my opinion the only highlights in a sportive way. I know we alway`s have highlights before and after the game. And these highlights are every week the same: 9 people, can`t find the ground, "I just left home" call`s at 13:00 Hours, and "I don`t feel well" phone call`s. I wanna take this opportunity to thank Rowan for all his runs made for our team and hope he will still play a few games next year for us. We wish you all the best in Eindhoven and hope to see you down at the grounds for a few "Kouwe kletsers".

U-9 and F - CircusSaturdays, 9.30 We will have coaches available for any of the F-circus and U9 players who want to come to VRA on Saturday mornings during the holiday period. VRA 1 - ACC 1 - 281 v 5 - 169 ao VRA 1 281 for 5 in 50 Overs / ACC 1 169 a.o. in 40 Overs After offering do to a match report earlier in the season and getting away with it due to a rained off match, Rod reminded me of my responsibilities and with large smile, chucked the scorebook at me late on Sunday evening. Since the break the team has been very determined to try and play to its potential and after a good victory over HCC the previous week, ACC were convincingly beaten by 112 runs at ACC’s new ground. It was probably our most complete performance for the season and nice to be able to do it in the local derby. Luckily Joost was able to win the toss as none of us fancied fielding in middle of the day when the temperatures were going to be at their highest. After Maupie van Nierop was unfortunately run out for 20 after a mix up with Tjade (nonetheless Tjade had no hesitation in fining Maupie for not making 50!), Eric and Tjade put together a 90 run stand in only 19 overs. Tjade was out to Aponso for 51 (therefore just avoiding a fine!) with his runs coming form only 56 balls. Eric also went on to make his second half century of the season in scoring 52. I think both Tjade and Eric cleverly decided it was too hot to bat for a long time and in typical Dutch fashion, got past the fine zone and headed back to the pavilion to put their feet up! Adeel got a chance to bat up the order and joined myself to put on 95 for the 4th wicket in 13 overs. Adeel played some magnificent shots in getting to 49 form just 42 balls (naturally he was fined) which included 2 sixes over mid wicket. It was good that Adeel could take some pressure off me as I, unlike Tjade and Eric, had not worked out that it was too hot to be batting for more than 20 overs! We finally got to 281, our highest score ever against ACC (according to Rod) and I finished on 70 not out from 77 balls. 281 was always going to very difficult for ACC, who currently sit at the bottom of the table. Joost took the early wicket of Aponso and Rashid already had the ball reverse swinging in the 10th over. Rahid took two wickets in his 3rd over which left ACC at 69 for 4 after 17 overs. Despite a partnership of 75 for the 5th wicket, we were generally in control of the match and once that partnership was broken the last 5 wickets fell for 25 runs. The ACC coach, Hendrikse, played very well for 74 but there was very little support from the other batsman. Rajhsid took 4 for 19 from 6 overs and Victor and Paul both picked up two wickets. One of the highlights of the fielding display was our David Boon lookalike (Maupie van Nierop) taking a brilliant diving catch at midwicket off Victor. Boonie is obviously taking his new nickname seriously by setting fielding standards that the Australian team would be proud of! Special mention to Ed who probably carted at least 100 litres of water onto the field during the day, including doing the drinks for the ACC side as well! We even helped out ACC with Wim doing the scoreboard. Hopefully ACC can find a few wins in their last games to give them a chance of avoiding relegation as their new ground and pavilion is first class.
