We are just back from our somewhat irregularly held quiz night at the Ruakura Campus Club. We've been going here for over a year now, and our track record hasn't been the best. Not that we're the worst or anything. We're usually squarely in the middle, just outside of the top four prize winners! But it's a lot of fun, and they have a really good handicap system which stops the same people from winning all the time.
Anyway, tonight we won! There was a tie, and we won the tie-breaker. And here is that tie-breaker question for you fine folks...

What year was the first women's cricket match reported?
Happy guessing....

Congrats for the win. I'm fairly sure it was 1880-1890 (1881?)... I had a similar question about women's cricket in a quiz for something at some stage.
Oops. Forgot my name. I mean I forgot to add my name rather than actually forgetting my name. I mean that would be stupid. And tragic.

Nice blog - Karl I check this and zac's (who I will point out hasn't updated his blog (at time of print)) blogs every couple of days.
As for the cricket, 1932, not much else to report besides "the world being poor"
