How good do I need to be to play?

All types of player. Batsmen, bowlers and wicket keepers. We want to improve the all round quality and depth of our squad - not just individual positions.

How often would I get to play?
We'll pick our first XI based on the strongest available team, but fielding a second XI in 2025 enables us to rotate the squad more fairly. The selection committee goes out of their way to ensure that everyone gets their fair share of cricket over the course of the season.
​
I don't play cricket, can I still join the club?
