Sir Tim Rice loves cricket, so much so that back in the early 70s he set up his own side – Heartaches CC – which is still going strong today. In the second week of September for over the 40th time the Heartaches came down to Cornwall to play three matches.

I was lucky enough to play for the Heartaches against Falmouth on the Thursday and then against them for my long-standing club side Mullion on the Friday.

During the Friday match I caught up with Tim and he talked about his love of cricket, how he got started playing cricket, and how he sees cricket moving forward.

We have several guests lined up for the months ahead. If you have an idea for someone who would make a great guest please do let us know via podcast@trevorleemedia.co.uk

This week it's been what has become an annual end to the O60s cricket season with the Tri-Nations tournament featuring six matches in three days with all four competing sides playing against each other.

Unfortunately the weather intervened and only three of the six matches took place.

So we look at what happened between England and the England Lions, Scotland and Wales and then the final match to beat the weather which was England Lions versus Scotland

You can find the scorecards here:

England v England Lions

Scotland v Wales

Scotland v England Lions
