Cricket: SMRH bowled over by Kiwi

SMRH cricket captain Greg Bisset believes his team will enter the Scottish indoor six-a-side tournament in a pool with Freuchie and Stenhousemuir at the national academy, Ravelston, tonight on a high.

"Announcing an appointment this week of George Worker, from New Zealand, as this summer's club professional is testament to the fantastic job being undertaken by our committee to keep moving things forward," says Bisset in a reference to a 21-year-old Kiwi being tipped to quickly add to under-19 caps as a right hand bat and slow left arm bowler.

SMRH will tonight field Jonny Brock, Matthew Coyle, Jonty Poward, Chris Bissett, Andrew Davidson and Bisset.

Holders Carlton are struggling to qualify.
