Queries Open the 2021 Account with a Win

Having been prevented from playing their first two fixtures because of the weather, the Queries kicked off their 2021 season with a T20 against Erlestoke CC. Despite the obvious "rustiness" of some players, they still managed a good 6 wicket win. Batting first, Erlestoke faced some accurate owling and found scoring

Coming Second to the Bishop’s Cannings

This was an inaugural match for the Queries for which both teams were 'oversubscribed' demonstrating how keen people are to play in these exceptional times. Queries won the toss and inserted their hosts, making a very promising start as skipper Rupert Bagnall bowled one opener in the 3rd over, and

A Wet End to a Promising Match

Playing the Gunners at Larkhill can often seem a daunting challenge to new or younger Queries. The Gunners travel from all over for this match, and today was no exception with some of their players travelling from Newcastle!  As they are preparing for their major fixture against the Royal Engineers

TWO MATCHES PLAYED – AND TWO WINS !

Today we played The Incogniti CC at the Tidworth ground. A team of experience and youth lead by Tom Shaw who lost the toss and was put in the field. Perhaps the Incogniti regretted that decision when they were 2 down for 11 runs after just 18 minutes Olly Illingworth

2020: One Match Played, and Two New Members!

We kicked off the Covid-affected 2020 season with a game against Potterne u19s, thanks to the initiative of Ged Montgomery who manages them.  They won the toss, batted, and made it to 165 for 9 in their 30 overs. Well done to Will Pembroke [54] and Josh Kelly [47] and

The Queries Croak in front of The Frogs

It was a wonderful day and the Tidworth ground looked a picture. Frogs won the toss and decided to bat first and it was immediately clear that bowling was not the Queries strongest suit.  Extras mounted up - there were 26 in all - and the Frogs openers capitalised. Sam
