Season Summary:
Played 16, Won 8, Lost 4, Drawn 4
Administrative problems led to the cancellation of a number of matches in 2002. But when we did take the field we were frequently successful.
Highlights were, perhaps, a strong showing on tour (with John Murphy’s 72 not out at Lindow winning the performance of the season award), last ball victory at St.John’s Cambridge, a tight win at Merrow bowling second, and a successful chase against the Hurlingham Club after an excellent display in the field.
