Mill Hill Village Cricket Club is toasting an unforgettable 2025 season after all five adult league teams secured promotion – a feat unmatched in living memory.

Leading the charge, the 1st XI, captained by Devraj Ray, claimed the Division 4B title and will step up to Division 4A next summer. It marks back-to-back promotions for the side, powered by hard work, sharp habits, and a team spirit that Ray says is second to none.

The 2nd XI, under new skipper Hamdard Jan Temori, finished just two points shy of Potters Bar CC 3rd XI at the top of Division 7 East.

Meanwhile, the 3rd XI, led by Pryank Patel, sealed promotion with a decisive final-day win over Northwood CC 4th XI. They ended the campaign second in Division 11 West, behind Northwood Town CC 3rd XI.

The 4th XI, captained by Ken Shakoor, also grabbed second place and promotion from Division 12 East.

And in a milestone moment, the club entered a Sunday league side for the first time. Captain H Ikram’s team secured promotion from Division 5 in second place – boasting the league’s highest net run rate of 2.03.

A Mill Hill Village Cricket Club spokesperson said: "Five promotions in a single season is an extraordinary achievement and something everyone at the club can be proud of. From the 1st XI winning their division to the brilliant efforts across all our Saturday sides and our new Sunday league XI, it shows the depth, commitment and spirit within Mill Hill Village. It truly feels like a golden era for the club."
