IN the latest edition of our look back through the archives, here are five cricket teams from years gone by.
Do you recognise yourself or anyone you know?
First up, making it to the final, Sessay’s 1976 team. Teamwork was considered as the main ingredient for this winning side. If the recognised batsman failed, someone else would always come along with a valuable knock, and in the semi-final, no less than six bowlers had shared the wickets.
