Festivities are expected to last well into the evening today as St Andrew’s Cricket Club and Branxholme Cricket Club celebrate club records that rarely get broken, with both clubs’ games records set to be broken.

Craig Dimond (St Andrew’s) and Andrew McFarlane (Branxholme) will both pass the existing record for their respective clubs today, with Dimond playing game number 480 and surpassing Graeme Byrne, while McFarlane overtakes his uncle, John McFarlane, with 358.
