The player of the month is for someone deemed to have excelled over the last month in league cricket. The June recipient is 1st XI captain Andrew Merriman.

It has been a difficult bowling month for seamers with a long lasting heatwave, but Andrew has bowled 20 overs, taken 5 wickets at an average of 12.4 runs per wicket, all at a miserly economy rate of just 3.1 runs per over. Andrew has also chipped in with 52 runs at an average of 17.4, taking him to the top of the 1st XI run scorers list. Keep it going skip!

In addition to the honour of the award, Andrew wins a free MOT service with thanks to our friends at Currie Motors.
