A Martlets and Romany team.......

A combined Sussex Martlets and Romany team finished 5th out of 32 in the 2009 sixes.

Having won the first two matches comfortably we were seeded in the top cup group with the eventual winners from Bangladesh. Their side contained several internationals from its Test squad.

Having lost Matt Walker and two Romany players just before departure our depleted squad punched well above its weight and we would have won one of the lower groups if we had not been seeded after the initial games. Tim Peters batted and bowled well and did not miss a match.  Three of the Romany players have been guests for Martlets in the past and hopefully may go on to be members.

Next years festival will be between the 27th March and the 4th April and anyone interested should email Paul Lack as demand is always strong.
