Time: 1.30p.m. start
Captain: Dusty
Conditions
32 degrees with a threat of a storm which never really occurred – the pitch was the greenest part of the ground with the surrounding outfield extremely dry. A fast outfield for sure.
Fielding
An abnormal sighting for the quokkas with 14 team members arriving at the ground, allowing plenty of players to get a chance to have a drink during the warm day.

Big thanks to the Happiest Animals for our turn out Sunday 18/01 to play Pub Cricket in a balmy 30 degrees with the Rainbow Trash Pandas 🐼. What a day out!
As hosts, the quokkkas put on a feast fit for the occasion. Big thanks to Rev and Amy - many happy tums. All agreed that it was good to eat.

I normally write these as close to the end of the match that time allows, ensuring that my memory of the game and how it transpired are relatively fresh in my mind.
Unfortunately (?), Christmas and a much-needed break intervened and so most of my memories of this are a bit of a blur. So, apologies.

The Big Picture
Wowsers, this is the big one. The Aussie v UK Quokkas match up that has been in the making for about 16 years since the antipodean branch of the club started up.
For those unfamiliar with the history of the club, it all started in about 2003 while I was pretending to work in financial services in London and noticed an ad for an indoor cricket competition.

It was touch and go start to the game with the Quokkas struggling to pull numbers together to get the game going. Ami had a big night, Nathan was missed, and we had Geelong Gareth filling in with a bit of a drive on his hands. I received advice to ’elect to bat’ if we get the choice to give our team ample time. Alas, the Curtin were in a worse state than us with their skipper Brandon letting me know that they were slowly pulling in. They started with their batting innings and were generous to assist us with an 11th fielder.
