45 Guys, 2 'gaaji' hungry teams and two fun 8 over a side games under one of the legendary trees near the Basketball Court. Crocker fun at its very best. March 8 might have been International Women's Day but in DB Egmore it was time for unlimited nostalgia as all the eager crocker players tried to recreate the magic with the crocker bats! It all started with a quick refresher on the crocker rules and then it was time for crocker action. It started with the two captains going through the bat in the air crocker toss!! Then it was time for two awesome games. The first was 8 overs a side and the second was 9 overs a side. It was terrific to see guys from the 60s play hard ball with the guys from the 2000s. It was a great mix of guys from different batches spanning all the decades! Everybody wanted to give it a thwack and the lack of any audited scoring (No PWC team here!) saw scoring rates that would put 20:20 games to shame. It was great fun and all the players decided to keep the game alive with the first Inter-Batch Crocker Tournament (Ten a side) in July 2009.
