It was a much anticipated JLL Hotels league final between Patong and Laguna on Sunday 12 May at the ACG. A heavy tropical storm in the morning before the scheduled start time and a weather forecast of rain throughout the day, created doubts as to whether the match would be able to be played. However, patience by the players and officials paid dividends, and after a break in the rain, the match finally got underway albeit in less than ideal conditions which gradually improved throughout the day to allow for a fantastic finals spectacle.

In the final round robin match before the finals, Patong met TNT on Sunday 5 May at the ACG. A win by Patong would see them finish in top spot on the league ladder, whereas TNT were looking to secure a confidence boosting end of season win. Patong ran out comfortable winners in the end posting a solid total of 272-8 from their 35 overs while TNT reached 179-9 in reply.

In a must win match for both teams, Laguna met Jabudays for their final face off for the season on Sunday 28 April at the ACG. A win by Laguna would see them secure their 4^th consecutive finals berth while a win by Jabudays would result in them facing their arch rivals Patong. The Laguna side ultimately prevailed by setting a solid total of 233-6 from their 35 overs while Jabudays fell just short of the target reaching 208-7 in reply.

With still only one victory to their credit this season, the Village were looking to upset a Jabudays outfit who went down to TNT in their last outing, and needed to return to the winning form to have a chance of securing a finals berth on Sunday 7 April at the ACG. Despite a determined effort, the Village total of 141 all out fell short or the mark with Jabudays chasing it down in just 25 overs to secure a valuable bonus point.

As the Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels league nears the completion of the round robin matches before the finals, teams are still fighting it out for the finals spots.  Laguna returned to the ACG, after suffering a comprehensive defeat against league leaders Patong the previous week, hoping to get back on track against the Village, who were also defeated by Patong in their last outing, but made a better fist of it, claiming the two bonus points on offer. The Village once again posted a solid score of 179-9 batting first, however Laguna managed to chase down the total posting 185-4 in the 27^th over.

In one of the most highly anticipated matches of the second round, league leaders Patong took on the undefeated Laguna side on a scorching hot day at the ACG. Patong jubilantly claimed victory over Laguna, their first in the previous two seasons, which now sees them almost certain of a finals berth in the Jones Lang LaSalle Hotels league. Patong posted a solid score of 230-9 batting first which proved too much for Laguna who were bowled out for 143 in the 29^th over.

After securing their first win of the season in their last match, the Village were confident of another successful outing against the current league leaders, Patong, who went down in their last match to Jabudays. With only 3 points separating the top 4 teams, a win for the Village, last season’s runners up, would put them back in contention, whereas a win for Patong would advance them one step closer to securing a finals berth. The Village posted a good score of 193 -6 batting first. However, Patong eventually ran out comfortable winners reaching their target scoring 196-7 in the 28th over.

The second round of Phuket Cricket Group’s junior Sawasdee league took place at the Alan Cooke Ground (ACG) on Saturday 16^th March with the PCG Youth Academy teams taking on HeadStart.

After a thrilling win against Patong last week, Jabudays were looking to continue their good run of form, and take the top of the table spot, against a TNT side that has not lived up to expectations this season. But at the Alan Cooke Ground (ACG) on Sunday 10^th March in the JLL Hotels league, TNT finally showed they had what it takes to be a force to be reckoned with. They cruised to an easy victory after bowling Jabudays out for 156 runs and then reaching their target of 157 in the 24^th over for the loss of only 3 wickets. Their win now sees them in equal 3^rd place in the JLL Hotels League table after match 13.

The Phuket Cricket Group’s junior Sawasdee league saw plenty of young talent at the Alan Cooke Ground (ACG) on Saturday 2^nd March.  Four teams were in attendance – the PCG youth academy fielded an A and B team, while HeadStart and Thai Hua schools also were represented.

While the temperature was rising on a hot summer’s day in Phuket, so was the cricketing action at the Alan Cooke Ground (ACG) on Sunday 3^rd March in the JLL Hotels league clash between rivals Jabudays and Patong. A win for Patong would see them extend their lead at the top of the table, while Jabudays were looking to bounce back after their recent defeat to Laguna and put themselves in contention for a finals berth. In a thrilling match, the old phrase “it ain’t over till the fat lady sings” seemed very appropriate as the teams slugged it out to secure victory. Ultimately, the Jabudays lads just held on hitting the winning runs with just one wicket in hand and six balls to spare.
