3 PLAYERS MAKE 100s IN MAMMOTH TACKY TALLY
In one of the most lopsided results of the 2024 schoolboy cricket season, Tacky High hammered Titchfield High beating them by 295 runs on Saturday, February 10.
It was Tacky’s third win in a row, in the Grace Headley Cup competition but none of the others was so comprehensively devastating. Tacky are on top of Zone D with 15 points, the same as Dinthill Technical, but with a better run rate.
