We need to be more ruthless! - Jake Ellis

What do we need to do better as a team this season?

We need to be more ruthless in all of our games and come out on top in the big moments of the season. We need to perform consistently for the whole season. Batting let us down hugely last season, so we have to make sure we don’t give our wicket away especially between the 20th and 30th over in the game.

What are your aims for the team this season?

We are targeting to win the league and hopefully pick up the lower junior cup, which we won last season. We have an extremely talented squad this year and there is no reason why we should not be looking to win the league and cup. We need to close that gap between us and the 2s.

Are you excited for this season?

Yes very excited for the season, I think it will be a fun and successful season for the 3rd team and the whole club. It’s such a special club, both on and off the field, as everyone gets on doesn’t matter if you’re a 1st teamer or 3rd teamer, we all go back to the club have a drink and a laugh, and I am so honoured to be a team captain of Sawston and Babraham Cricket Club.
