Plenty of batting milestones reached in 2019 season...

We've seen a number of players achieve personal milestones with the club during the 2019 season in all three disciplines while a number of other players are knocking on the door ahead of the 2020 campaign. Here's a look at them.

Liam Kinch - his 689 runs this season took him past the 12,000 run mark for the club. His career total of 12,339 sees him sit third in the all time list of run getters for the club behind dad, Nigel, and James Melody who are some way ahead with over 14,000 runs each. Liam leads the way in terms of runs amongst all the active players

Dave Torr - 615 runs this season for the First XI skipper saw him pass the 9,000 run mark since his debut for the club 11 years ago after moving to us from Kegworth Town. His career total of 9,152 runs sees him sit seventh on the ladder

Pete Willcocks - having been with the club for over 25 years Pete also crossed the 9,000 run mark during the season where he amassed 716 runs across all formats. His 9,074 runs sees him eighth on our list of career run scorers

Jake Gillett - the left-hander is in his second spell with us having started his career with Thorpe Arnold before returning there in 2011 and then returning to Mill Lane for the 2016 season. Jake's 754 runs last term saw him pass the 5,000 run barrier for the club. 309 runs in 2020 will see him pass the 6,000 run mark too

Stephen Loveridge - his 253 runs during 2019 saw the right-hander pass the 5,000 run mark.
