Sides for 24th & 25th July
All sides have been selected for the league fixtures this weekend.
The First XI name the same eleven for both their fixtures this weekend as they travel to Clydesdale on Saturday and host the National Academy at Myreside on Sunday.
With the Scotland Lions trio of Ewan Chalmers, Stuart Chalmers and Ryan Flannigan returning along with captain Steve Paige the side that defeated leaders Grange the previous weekend shows 4 changes. Scotland under 19 captain Paddy Sadler is absent on World Cup Qualifier duty in Ireland along with the u19s coach Craig Wright and Mike Legget is away in London for the weekend.
The Second XI also make a number of changes for their home clash with Glenrothes. All rounders Andy Learmonth, slotting back in to a top order spot for the 2s fresh from a decent innings against Grange, and Fraser Sands return. Scotland Under 15 vice captain Chris Cash makes his first start since returning figures of 5-27 against the East Academy a fortnight ago. Out for the hosts are East Academy Captain Paddy Baker and Peter Legget who is with Scotland Under 19s in Ireland. The visitors will be glad not to see the names of Crosby or Cairns on the team sheet, the pair having hit a 290 run partnership when the sides met at Riverside Park earlier in the season.
The Third XI will play their first game at home for the first time in a month when they face Falkland 3rd XI at Craiglockhart. Ollie Gaywood will welcome back Steve Lockhart whilst he will also have Ross Brooks and promising young batsman/keeper Matt Little at his disposal this weekend.

Disappointed not to warrant a mention this week! Is that my punishment for missing training yet again?
I presume I am still needed for Saturday Ollie?

You’re definitely still in. The recent previews have been written by Brooksy so any mentions are of his choosing – funny how his name is always ‘the one to watch’…

It’s based purely on my limited knowledge of who is playing. I’m never worth watching too closely unfortunately
