Speaking after the game recent signing Jack Myers said ‘it was good to get another decent innings under my belt and I am really enjoying the switch from Eastnor CC to Halesowen. We are in a good rhythm now and the second half of the season should be exciting for us as its all to play for with the division being so tight. We are just 30 points off the top with some key games coming in the next few weeks
