And a final thanks to Mark for umpiring, Carol for scoring (and then those that did so today!), plus all those organising oppositions, those hosting us and groundstaff in a particularly tricky summer. We’ve only got two on twitter @andy__cameron @jonbendle1 but thanks to you all!

Day 5 vs NDLXI @ClubLynton was cancelled due to the weather so the Frogs made excellent alternative arrangements with indoor bowls in Tiverton and par 3 golf in Chumleigh! Though we do look forward to Valley of Rocks next year.

[Frogs Cricket Club @FrogsCricket]

And a massive shout out to @WombatsCC for looking after us. Really enjoyed our second visit and look forward to seeing you next year!

All in all an excellent day out at a stunning venue. Thanks to @TWCricketClub for looking after us so well and we hope to be invited back in the future! 🐸
