But soft, who is this samite-clad knight, gazing towards Tintagel?

It’s a lively wicket, that’s for sure

Any youngsters out there wondering how to cope with fiery irregular bounce...

Anyway, I batted very well for my 1, which I think at the moment is second equal top score

Six

Magnificent batting from @peterfrankopan, who has just hit a six into the children’s playground

A big-hitting innings from @peterfrankopan, coming in low down the order, sees @AuthorsCC to an exceedingly creditable 69 off our 20 overs.

The single most exciting sporting encounter of 2021 so far sees @AuthorsCC TIE with the Port Isaac RNLI XI.

A tie - but in a very real sense, cricket was the winner.

A wonderful match!

Thank you, Port Isaac!
