The Sunday Firsts had a laugh at the weekend beating the visiting Four Candles comedians team  by 89 runs  The comics were captained by our own Tom Rosenthal and included the internet sensation Thomas Grey, Edinburgh festival winner Liam Williams and Comedy Store regular Gordon Southern.

CDCC batted first making 195 off 36.5 overs with Jonathan Gay top scoring on 69 and Jake Richardson hitting 31. Harrison Charles (3/17) was the pick of the bowlers. The Comedians never looked like reaching the target despite 45 from Bradley. Two wickets each for Razzaq, skipper Isaac Richardson and Finlan. 

What they lacked in cricketing expertise they made up for in giggles in  the evening when they put on a brilliant comedy show ....a packed pavilion enjoyed six comedians, MC’d by Tom, who relentlessly shamed our President and his wife (Mum and Dad)..... The evening raised a sizeable four figure sum  for the building fund.  One of the most relevant sets was from Simon Clayton - late of Amersham Hill Cricket Club which has sadly recently closed.  He praised the community efforts at CDCC and recognised the massive efforts from Sue and Andy Finlan and the club committee to keep  our club open and thriving.

A great night - which they threaten to repeat next year.....
