Yesterday saw the Energy Systems SW Ltd Player of the Month awarded to Dave Baldock for his 115* in the 2nd XI fixture against Barnstaple & Pilton 1st XI. Balders reached his 115* off just 86 balls, including 18 fours and 1 six.
Since joining the club from South Devon in 2012, Baldock has racked up nearly 4000 DCL runs at an average of 28.10. This is his fourth century in league cricket for Thors, following a couple for the 1st XI scoring 126* v Shobrooke Park in 2013 & 101* v Ipplepen in 2019, plus 104* for the 2nd XI against Topsham St James in 2022. All four of Balders’ league centuries for Thors have been unbeaten.
So far this term Balders has stuck 309 runs at an average of 28.09 & has captained the 2nd XI for the majority of the season.
Well done Balders!
