Addington Cricket Club

At the Artillery Ground on 25 July, Addington defeated the foremost London Cricket Club by an innings & 4 runs.

Kent players Robert Colchin, aka "Long Robin", and Tom Peake played for Addington as given men while Surrey's William Sawyer was given to London.

Addington and Slindon met at the Artillery Ground on 12 and 13 September but the occasion was ruined by bad weather and the match could not be concluded.

In 1747, Addington joined forces with nearby Croydon to play three matches against London: they won one, lost one and one had an unknown result.

The match was played for fifty guineas a side and was the result of a challenge by the Addington players to meet any other five in England.

All-England made two changes to its team with James Bryant and Val Romney replacing Bell and Waymark.

According to the London Evening Post on Thursday 19 July, Dartford lost its last five second innings wickets in five successive deliveries by a mixture of caught and bowled, but still won.
