Hello and Thanks For Coming to the latest podcast from what is arguably the Greatest Cricket Club in the World. This week we discuss one man’s incredible demolition of an opposition, taking 10 wickets for 25 runs across two games. The spinning icon is in good company, joined by a club captain’s 5fer, and two half centurions also spinning their way to 4fers from either end in the same game. We hear of a new recruit’s 50 on debut, and celebrate the most relaxed man in cricket bringing up his first 100 for the club by hitting a six. And, as the first team get to grips with a golfing warm-up routine, could this weekend have reached peak Village cricket? We play with plastic stumps, change wickets half way through an innings and start with an unknown fielder who only realises he’s at the wrong ground after the first wicket. Our hosts have all experienced a TFC or two in their time, and you’ll often find them challenging anyone who fancies a game in many of Surrey’s fine public houses. Find us on Twitter @PloughmansCC, and drop us a message at hello@plougmanscc.com

Thanks For Coming as we honour our club’s ultimate all-rounder who marked his 400th game by bringing up 5,000 runs and adding to his 650+ Plough record-taking wicket haul. The fight for the batting trophy heats up as the former leader hits another ton, only for his rival to hit back to back 100s over the Bank Holiday weekend. And how do you pick your Captain? Do you base it on looks or on whether or not they’ll organise a curry after the game? We find out which skippers have been having the most success in the battle to be crowned the Sunday First XI. As ever our hosts are two of Surrey’s finest opening bowlers - joined today by a man formerly known as Student, recently promoted to Headmaster.

Thanks for Coming as this fun-filled season nears its midway point for our boys in Surrey, the Ploughmans Cricket Club. This week you’ll hear about a debutant’s 5fer, the importance of red ink and the dangers of chatting up your ability in the pub the night before a game. We also chat ‘Plough status’ as more club legends don the blue and gold crest to make a mark on games Home and Away. And, send us in your nominations for a Beard XI as lockdown growth starts looking good in the depths of Dulwich. This week sees a change of bowling - we continue to open with spin, but a friend of the show steps in to co-host alongside the club’s current lead wicket taker.

Thanks For Coming as we celebrate one batsman’s incredible 10,000th run milestone.

Also, we learn that another Queen La2Fer may have started their reign at Ploughmans CC. And, the Warden of Morden battles the Gumpert family - find out who wins from our two devilishly handsome hosts.

Thanks For Coming to our second episode as we are excited to confirm that cricket is well and truly back. On this podcast we feature club cricket's most alpha men, from the grassroots Kevin Pietersen to the skipper with a point to prove and we hear briefly from one spinner who looked to assert his dominance on his return to the sport. It's a new season with plenty of new faces, but some things never change as our hosts guide you through scorebook tensions, missed hat-trick chances, late-starts and late-nights, and of course, more wins for the Greatest Cricket Club in the World. They have both experienced a TFC or two in their time, but our boys can be found opening the bowling (for now) in the Surrey Premier League for rising stars Ploughmans CC.

Join us for the first episode of Thanks For Coming (TFC) to hear about the pace bowling pilot who flew in from India for just two overs, an overnighter from Aus that led to a double century, and the sledge of the season that sent sales of Newberry ladies gear skyrocketing.

Our surprise guest speaker talks us through a challenging 2017 season, how he missed out on a ton through lack of fitness in a heated game, and his favourite match in which he found a player on Gumtree and got hit around the park by a 15 year old.

Thanks for Coming (TFC) is a podcast loosely based on cricket and everything that goes with it.

Our Hosts have both experienced a TFC or two in their time, but can currently be found opening the bowling in the Surrey Premier League for rising stars Ploughmans CC.
