Atticus Endean showing us all the skills he’s improved from his winter playing cricket in Australia. A fine knock of 76 off 64 that formed the basis of a thrilling run chase against our good friend’s @northlondoncricket last Saturday. Stokey fell just short but what a match! #attheheartofhackneycricket @peckpecklondon
Week 3 Roundup.
The Stokey Women opened their league account with 100 run loss at home to @harrowsaintmaryscc . Despite another all-round performance from Kit and the rest of the bowlers, the batting never got going to be in with a shout of chasing 189. It was agony for the Men’s 1s losing by 1 run in the Marshes derby chasing 243 to win against @nlmcccricket With NLM getting off to a blistering start it fell to Ashley and Noah G to bring SNCC back into the game with 3 wickets each. A 76 from Atti was the fulcrum for the run chase, but 2 late wickets at the death meant they fell just short. The 2s found @finchleycricket too strong with both bat and ball in a 5 wicket loss. Despite 45 from Ankish and a breezy 32 from Harry, 146 wasn’t enough to defend. 7 wickets were shared by Ankit and Sonny as the 3s bowled out @hampsteadcc 5s for just 178. The openers Sunny and Eshen knocked 100 off the total for the 1st wicket and from there the result was a formality. A 50 from opener Mathieu and lots of little contributions got the 5s to a very defendable 227 against @highgatecltc At 156-2 things were looking good but up stepped Bilal with 3 and match winner Vijay with 5-38 to spark a collapse and a Stokey win by 19 runs. The 6s produced a team performance to bounce back from last week’s heartache to chase down @millwallstarscc by 3 wkts, Sumer ending with 43* at the end. The 7s chased down 225 in emphatic fashion thanks to 55 from Harry and an unbeaten 80 from other opener Calvin to beat @alexandraparkcc by 8 wickets. Our Sunday XI were thankful to Ayaz and Anish who hit not out’s of 85 and 60 respectively to bring the boys home by 5 wickets chasing 223 vs @pacificcricket
The 4s continued their rollicking start to the season scoring 315-4 against @hampsteadcc 6s. It was mainly due to a 3rd wicket stand of 194 runs between opener Flint, ending unbeaten on 96 + Stokey legend Ramiz seeing like a beachball to hit 13 fours and 5 sixes in his 112 that went at more than a run a ball. Sami and Shayan up top made early inroads and Hampstead never recovered. POTW goes to Ramiz for his 112 off 92 balls. Well done Ramiz!

Week 3 Results. The Stokey Women opened their league account with a big loss at home to @harrowsaintmaryscc . The Men’s 1s had an agonising 1 run loss in the Marshes derby chasing 243 to win against @nlmcccricket The 2s on the other pitch found @finchleycricket too strong with both bat and ball in a 5 wicket loss. The 3s were far too strong for @hampsteadcc 5s, chasing down 178 at a canter. The 4s made another huge total to run out convincing winners over Hampstead 6s The 5s had another tight win, this time able to defend 227 against @highgatecltc by 19 runs. The 6s bounced back from the heartache of last week to chase down @millwallstarscc by 3 wickets. The club is so proud to be able to field 7 mens teams and they didn’t let us down with an 8 wicket win against @alexandraparkcc Our Sunday XI to strong for @pacificcricket home comfortably by 5 wickets chasing 224. Match reports and POTW to come…. #leaguecricket #attheheartofhackneycricket @middlesexwomenscricketleague @middlesexccl
Week 2 turned out to be a bit more up and down for the Stokey Men’s teams. For both the 1s and 2s, the batting faltered and neither side posted anywhere near enough runs to defend against @alexandraparkcc Park and @chiswickcc
The 3s continued their excellent start to the season with a brilliant chase against @northmiddlesexcc . Three wickets apiece from Oscar and Sonny helped restrict North Mid to 227. Stokey then chased it down thanks to excellent performances from Sunny and Ed, before Ankit and Noah saw the side home.
The 5s were thankful for a classy 67 from Maaz, which proved instrumental in helping them chase 195 in a tight victory against @crouchendcricketclub
The 6s agonisingly fell just one run short despite last-man heroics from Vignesh in a Marshes thriller against good neighbours @walthamstowcc
Our Sunday Friendly XI were outclassed by some seriously good batting from Antigua Cavaliers, but a shout-out goes to Noah for his 68.
POWR goes to the 4s batting unit, who bounced back in style after last week’s disappointment and piled on a score too big for @hornseycricketclub to chase. B-V Patel’s 87, along with excellent fifties from Ramiz and skipper Andy, powered Stokey to 309 and a dominant win.
Top work Bhavik-Kishen Patel, Ramiz and Andy! 👏🏏 @middlesexccl #attheheartofhackneycricket
@middlesexccl Week 2 Results. It was an up and down week for @stokeycricket men’s teams with the batting not firing for the 1s and 2s. The 3s made it 2 wins out of 2 with another solid all round performance and the 4s righted the wrongs from last week with an empathetic win. The 5s held their nerve to win by 4 wickets and the 6s agonisingly lost by 1 run! Our Sunday XI were outclassed. Match reports and POTW to come…. #leaguecricket #attheheartofhackneycricket
Some of the cleanest hitting you could wish to see from Men’s 1st team all rounder :) Ashley Layer, in last weekends win over Willow Leather. Helped in part to his @thorne_cricket bat repair. Wishing all our @stokeycricket teams well this weekend 👊#attheheartofhackneycricket

An excellent opening week: 6 wins from 8, clutch team performances, and standout individual efforts across the club.
The Women’s 1s began their season against a strong @gunnersburywcc 2nd XI. Kit Levenson’s excellent 71* anchored the innings, but the side couldn’t quite post enough runs.
The Men’s 1s recovered from trouble thanks to Ashley Layer’s 56, pushing past 200 against @willow_leather_cricket_club before Zain Haidery spun his magic with 4–29.
The 3s held their nerve to edge @finchleycricket built on 48s from Ronnie and Tom plus strong death bowling from Oscar.
Mathieu Neale’s 60 proved pivotal as the 5s won away at @winchmorehillcc .
The 6s also got off to a winning start, beating @newhamcc by 27 runs, with Nadeem Haidery top-scoring with 31.
On Sunday, Ayaz Shah made it back-to-back centuries for the Friendly XI, helping pile on 322 before sealing a commanding 143-run win over @plastics_cc
POWR, though, has to go to Ben Bridgman on his SNCC debut. His commanding 119* powered the 2s to a daunting 278 vs @harrowtowncc alongside an opening-day fifty from skipper Abhi. After a watchful first 25 balls, Ben found his fluent best, racing to a century at better than a run-a-ball before finishing unbeaten with 16 fours and 2 sixes. What a way to start his Stokey career! @middlesexwomenscricketleague @middlesexccl #attheheartofhackneycricket
The @stokeycricket 2026 has started in excellent fashion for all our teams. We registered 5 wins out of 7, with some outstanding individual performances with every side coming out the blocks strong.
