Wills Smashes it on the Cricket Field

Talented St Peter’s cricketer, Wills (North of England U15 - Captain) has made history on the cricket field again.

Wills scored 107 not out from 117 balls in the 50 over fixture against the Midlands.

He was a crucial part of a record partnership, scoring 214 in the 9-wicket victory. 

The talented North of England team won this year’s ECB Bunbury Festival which brings together the best 56 boys in England, in the first phase of the England Men’s Performance Pathway.

Super Wills is also currently top of the Wisden Schools batting averages nationally, second in the total runs and tenth in the bowling averages. Only nine batters so far have scored over 1000 runs in the school season this summer.

Gareth Sharp, North of England Team Manager for the England Talent Programme, Head of St Peter’s Cricket, 1^st XI coach & Junior Boarding Houseparent (Wentworth), said:

“Wills commanded the field and was a joy to watch with the bat. This was gold-standard cricket. I congratulate Wills on the valiant way he led by example as Captain.”
