Runs Galore in the 60s and 70s County Cricket Championship

Lots of matches and lots of runs this week

We review the matches played across the various O60s and O70 divisions on June 25th and 27th.

It's replay week on July 2nd in the O60s Div 1 - can Surrey make the top 2 or will their defence of the title end here? They've got no game on replay week so will be relying on others. 

Wales smash 409/5 in O60s div 1 - highest of the season so far we think. Anyone know the all time record team score in 60s/70s? We also noted in the pro game Louis Kimber taking 43 off an Ollie Robinson over - anyone know the most runs scored in an over in the O60s and O70s comps? 

Chris Lailey of Gloucs made 192 not out in 60s Div 1 - highest individual score we think this year and Michael Shelvey took 6 for 6 - the last 6 to fall as he was 5th bowler - for Kent v Herts in O60s Div 4 - we think the first 6 wicket haul of the season. 

Please drop us a note to podcast@trevorleemedia.co.uk if you know the answers to our questions or if you have a nomination for catch of the season. 

Next week's episode - out on July 5th - features England O60s captain Richard Merriman looking ahead to the 5 match ODI series v Pakistan which starts on July 8th and we will preview phase 2 of the 60s Div 1 competition which starts on July 9th.
