The Sunday game, taken seriously — but not too seriously.
ABOUT SALIX CC
Competitive enough to care. Relaxed enough to enjoy it.
It all became real in July 1991 when the newly formed Salix Cricket Club played their first game. Memories are a bit fuzzy on who the oppo was or the final result, but the club founded by Tony Fletcher and colleagues from Deloitte’s was up and running. The ethos was and remains to play social cricket, encouraging players of all abilities to join and just have some fun.
Thirty-five years is a long time, and I’m pleased to report that Salix is still going strong playing 35 over games most Sundays in or round West London with Barnes being our home for the last few seasons.
One of the standout features of Salix is our annual overseas tour. We take particular pride in playing in some unusual places, mostly to lose graciously but nevertheless having a wonderful experience. In 2025 we went to Ibiza and this autumn we’re visiting Poland for the first time hosted by Krakow CC. Our recent trips have included visits to Germany, Croatia, Montenegro, Romania, Cyprus, Italy, France, Hungary and Bulgaria.
We’re always looking for new players, rusty or otherwise and if you fancy a game or two, please get in touch.

Patabadige's Heroics Not Enough as Salix Hold Their Nerve
In a game of remarkable swings, Salix posted 258 before reducing Flamstead to 0 for 2 in the very first over, only for the Flamstead captain to single-handedly drag his side back into contention with a stunning century. It took the calm, clinical brilliance of CK — with the ball, in the field, and in the mind — to finally put the game to bed. A victory that will live long in the memory.
Fancy a Game?
Good cricket, good people, good times.
