The O60s and O70s county cricket championships are underway with matches in the O60s 1st and 2nd XI competitions and the O70s 2nd and 3rd XI competitions.

We review what happened including the O60s Div 2 Cup Final carried over from 2024 between Wales and Oxfordshire.

One week in and we’ve already seen some incredible performances including in O60s Div 1 North a match featuring two massive hundreds and almost 650 runs plus in Div 1 South two five-fors. We're had a player going from a combined 0-84 in 2024 to a match winning 6-43 in the first game of 2025.

We've had matches won and lost on the last ball, collapses and revivals, a couple of hit wickets and the first matches as a county championship for the O70s Div 3.

We've had glorious weather, scones with jam first, scones with cream first and four all run fours in one innings.

What a fantastic start to 2025!
