Bank of England Select XI v Carib Beer XI - 9th June 2005 - Regents Park.
What was expected to be a warm up match against a bunch of non cricketing work colleagues saw us register our first and only loss of our first official season as the opposition turned out to be somewhat stronger than anticipated. To make matters worse, the Carib Beer XI's run chase was hampered by some controversial umpiring decisions. In the event, we fell short of our target of 103 by one run. Unfortunately, this game saw the absence of Mr Haigh, our team captain, and the consequent increase in the amount of on field beer consumed as a result, may have contributed to our loss. Following the defeat, the stand in captain, Mr Willis, handed in his resignation in preparation for the return of Mr Haigh.
