Wow!! Just back from XPRO U13s cricket tour of Sri Lanka. Created a lifetime of memories as Lead Coach. Met with my old pal Roy Dias. The tour organised by Dalu Tours was exceptional. Played 6 games, trained in the nets at Galle and met some amazing people. 👍🏏😀

Disappointing team performance yesterday but some good individual performances from🌹CAG Boys U12s defeated by Yorkshire by 10 runs. Lots of learning but collectively players have to be calm, find a steely determination and a winning mentality to perform against good players. 🏏
