* Clubs XI vs Independents XI - Tony Turner Trophy match
HKCA Ernest Maude Saturday League to get underway?!
HKCA is pleased to announce that once again the premier financial planning company Ernest Maude Continental Investments will be sponsoring the Saturday League for the 2001-02 season. Thank you to Chris Agar and Brad Tarr at Ernest Maude for your continuing support of Hong Kong league cricket.
The HKCA Saturday League is scheduled to get underway this weekend, but with the rain gods working overtime lately it's doubtless going to be difficult for many, matches to go ahead. Captains are reminded that, in the absence of on site ground authorities it is their responsibility to make the decision as to whether to proceed with the match. Wherever you'll be playing this season in your attempts to take KCC Tartars title good luck and play with a straight bat!
