GUERNSEY cricket coach Andy Cornford is not one to sidestep a question.

Some in his position might be guarded when asked if he has set a specific goal for his team when they embark on their first World Cricket League Division Five tournament next week.

Cornford’s answer was emphatic.

‘To win it.’

The thought of merely consolidating their position is simply too negative for this group, especially considering what they achieved a little more than four months ago in Malaysia.

    Did enjoy “baffled youngster’s” comment on the website … If Biggsy is a pensioner, what does that make Stan?
