Local cricket grounds expertise was showcased on BBC Radio Berkshire this morning, as Arun Oram, one of our accredited Cricket Pitch Advisors (CPAs), joined Rich Clarke on the station’s breakfast show.

Speaking shortly after 7:15am, Arun discussed key topics around cricket pitch preparation, maintenance, and best practice for grassroots clubs ahead of the new season.
