Snow Cricket in Spain

Whitchurch vs Spain, 2008

A small touring party took on the might of Spain in the Pyrenean village of Cerler in both red and white-ball forms of snow cricket.

Unfortunatley for Whitchurch, due to a seriously depleted touring party, Jim Power opened both bowling and batting.

Fortunately for Whitchurch's honour, however, the white ball game was abandoned after the ball disintegrated in a freak middle-of-the-bat incident. The red-ball game also had to be abandoned when an agricultural shot from the Spanish opener, Lahoz, got lost in a snowdrift.

The fate of the 2009 tour hangs in the balance.
