Did you know?
The most runs scored in a single over is not 36 over is 77. It came in a game between Canterbury and Wellington in New Zealand's first class cricket, Wellington's Bert Vance went for 77 runs in the only over he bowled.This is how the over progressed – 0 4 4 4 6 6 4 6 1 4 1 0 6 6 6 6 6 0 0 4 0 1. Apparently it was a tactic devised by the bowlers to try and get one more batsman out.

After a dry start with some sunshine, cloud will increase during the morning, bringing some showers for the afternoon. The odd heavy and thundery shower is possible, but it should become dry in the evening. Maximum Temperature 22c, 11cSunday quotes:

Joke of the day:
What do Norfolk cricket batsmen and drug addicts have in common?
Both spend most of their time wondering where their next score will come from.Thought for the week
Help me to play the game, dear Lord, with all my might and main; Grant me the courage born of right, a heart to stand the strain...Send me a sense of humor, Lord, to laugh when victory's mine; To laugh, if I should meet defeat, without a fret or whine...
Give me the grace to follow rules, to 'fess up when I'm wrong, When silence or some other thing wins plaudits from the throng...When foes are tough and fighting fierce and I am getting weak, Dear God, don't ever let me show a broad, bright, yellow streak.
And teach me, Lord, life's game to play just one day at a time. With Thee as coach and trainer, Lord, real victory must be mine. Sports prayer...Today's food shop openings:
