In which Sue welcomes you to 2024 and Mark chats with Andy Nott about using cameras while scoring for the MCC.

There's an abundance of technical terms and who knew that camera poles, battery packs, wireless point to point links and multiple tripods would become standard equipment for scorers? There's a shout out to some stunning locations but also some remote (resourceless) places. What do you do on encountering a flimsy sightscreen or when your memory goes? I can't quite remember the answer to that one!

Thanks to Mark Shepherd and Andy Nott for sharing their experience on camera scoring for Marylebone Cricket Club (or My Cricket Camera).

In which Sue, Brian and Jules talk to Paul Toplis, Paul Stubbs and Carol Hughes about scoring visually impaired (VI) cricket at the 2023 International Blind Sport Federation (IBSA) World Games in Birmingham.

Cropping up in our conversation were a vicars/priests team, runners, Hit Wicket dismissals, underarm bowling, more runners, being quiet, balls with ball bearings in, an all run 5,  batters at the wrong ends, helpful shirt numbers, paper backups and did I mention runners?

In a radical change to the norm - there is no mention of cake!

Mark Long joins the conversation to talk about scoring domestic VI cricket in the UK and if you want to try this yourself, please contact Paul Toplis on bcewscorer@gmail.com, as more scorers are always wanted in this format of cricket.

In which Jules, Sue and Brian apologise for the gap between episode 36 and 37 and talk to Mike Turner, Izzy Howe and Andy Lynch about scoring the men's and women's Ashes series in Summer 2023. During the discussion they get side-tracked by scorebox camaraderie, extra strong mints, moving scoreboxes, red light bulbs, DRS, 'The Book', top and bottom scoring, scorebox catering and of course cake (well chocolate gateaux). Much pondering is done over when a batter is deemed out, time-wise ...

In which Mark, Brian and Sue enlist the help of Luke Hearn (Shepherds Bush CC) and James Shadwell (Potterne CC) to talk around the controversial subject of using cameras while scoring, to live stream your cricket.  In amongst the usual chatter they attempt to answer last episode's question of 'Who should be operating the camera?' as well as discussing  live stream sponsorship, cameras on poles, paper or no paper and the perils of boundary microphones.

To get the definitive answer on how to set up live streaming at your club, Mark talks to Neil Fairbairn of NV Play.
