So far this season the Erratics have - in baseball parlance - 'flipped the script'. Put simply, this means we are performing the opposite of what might have been expected. Last year's dominant record in weekend games feels like a distant memory, with wickets - let alone victories - proving hard to come by. Fraser reports on an inevitable draw at Clyst here, and although details of our most recent game at Newton Pop are not yet on the website a little birdie tells me we lost that one.

However, we have made a rampant start in our usual bete noire, T20 cricket, winning 4 from 4, including most recently against Rackenford in the Cheriton Fitzpaine Big Bash, as Matt Crawford relates here. Will normal service resume in the month ahead?
