It is summer time and that means it’s time for the local cricket season to start.
The days are getting longer and the nights are getting warmer and summer is well on its way to Germiston.
With it comes the start of the local cricket season, which will kick-off in the city on Saturday, October 6.
Germiston is lucky to boast not one but two fantastic cricket clubs, namely, Elsburg Eagles Cricket Club and the Germiston City Cricket Club.
The Eagles will play their home matches at either their main oval, in Dinwiddie, situated at 1 Malherbe Street, or their second oval at the Elsburg Sports Complex, situated at the corner of Heidelberg Road and Egret Street in Elspark.
