Day 6










Hi All,
Thanks for all your comments! It's good to have the reliable ones there!





We have all had a good day today with our match starting at 7.15am. The boys performed better today against another strong Academy side. Our hosts were particularly welcoming allowing all the boys to get involved with the game. Good performances with the ball from the Captain and Thomas. It was strange for the boys to play on matting but they adapted well. All the boys have so far avoid any serious injuries playing cricket allthough James Kilbourn decided to slip over at the Hotel!(no broken bones though!)










We are leaving Agra tomorrow early am.
Another good day!
Best wishes,

Hutch and the team

Dear All,
I have so enjoyed reading the daily 'updates' and the pictures are great.....how amazing to see the Taj Mahal. On the cricket front altho' you've obviously been up against v strong opposition who are used to the conditions, the experience the boys are having(even if they are not winning) has to be good for them.
The weather here is cold and wet so enjoy the fine weather. Hope all stay fit and well and that James is ok after his fall in the hotel.
Have fun,
Kindest Regards to all,
Simon Cooney

Great to see everyone looking well.

I expect all the work you’re putting in during the tour will put you in good form for the school matches in the new term.

Stay safe and have fun.

The boys may be disappointed after today's match however it is encouraging to know that they did play better and are hopefully learning valuable lessons. Plased to hear James is in one piece! Til tomorrow .....

Glad James is on the mend and hope he will get a chance to play in the last match. Lovely to see the photos. Any chance of some action shots next match?
Can anyone lend James a camera battery charger??!
Enjoy Jaipur. It is beautiful.

Hi 'Team India'!

Not sure if my computer is playing up or if there was no update yesterday. Hope all is well with the team and that this is a technical fault at my end.

Best wishes

Must be really exciting to spend Cricket Holidays and take note, it's cheaper than what you've thought.
