Hello all,
This is just a quick post saying that i will be available for the 20/20 Finals day if you require my services. As clubs are not allowed to play new members and players registered last season are allowed to play in it then i am willing to offer my cricketing services.
Cheers, mark

Brilliant news from Myreside !!!
Murrayfield-Dafs CC are the inaugural winners after beating Marchmont in the final !!!
I’m sure far more detail will follow but chasing 128 to win the opposition came up 23 short with only 1 wicket remaining. Mangesh scoring well both in the final and the semi.
And with the team posing for pics with their trophy, they received a celebratory dousing of champagne from the on looking Muffers.
Well done fellas !!!
(okay so it was only Bucks Fizz provided by Princess Charl but looked good.)

Well done to everyone. My reports suggest a great day out and some great performances with the skip starring in the field in the Final, Mangesh starring in both games with the bat and some other great performances. Great way to start the season.

Just a quick note to say congrats and thanks to all those who contributed to a fantastic cup victory, both yesterday and throughout the campaign. Special mention to Maggy of course for two stunning innings and a crucial bowling spell in the semi-final - the undoubted hero of the finals day. But everyone who played yesterday made a key contribution at some stage over the two games and helped us towards our eventual victory - thanks to you all.
Cheers also to our two non-playing squad members, Neil Y and Sutha, who both played their parts to get us to the finals day and gave us great encouragement and support yesterday despite the disappointment of just missing out on selection. A captain couldn't wish for two better club men.
And it was great to have such good and vocal support through the day yesterday, it gave us a big boost in both games when we were up against it in the field. Cheers all for coming along and I hope we made it worth your while.
It's good to start as we mean to go on! Here's to an enjoyable and successful season - the very best of luck to all MDCC teams for the months ahead.
Cheers Tom

Cricket: DAFS come up roses . .
Published Date: 29 April 2009 By GARY HEATLY MURRAYFIELD DAFS set themselves up for the East League cricket campaign which gets underway this Saturday when Mangesh Akerkar inspired them to victory in the Cow Corner finals day at Myreside. The Twenty20 event was carried over from 2008 and Akerkar hit 70 to rescue his team in the first semi-final against Drummond Trinity.
His runs took them to 111-5 from their innings and he then grabbed figures of 2-10 from his four overs with the ball as the opposition were restricted to 98-6.
Marchmont caused an upset in the other semi-final by seeing off Edinburgh Accies. An opening partnership of 55 between Sam Peachey and Aaron Sardesai set them up to score 130-6 from their 20 overs, Peachey scoring 51. Sardesai then starred with the ball, taking 3-20 as Accies were bowled out for 108.
In the final Akerkar again dominated the innings of Murrayfield DAFS with 66 not out in a total of 127-7. Marchmont started well in response with another good opening partnership, Sardesai scoring 32.
However, a combination of run-outs and catches slowed things down and they ended on 109-8. Raja Sampath was the pick of the bowlers with 3-12 as Murrayfield DAFS were crowned champions.
