29/08/2026

Between them, Mark Lester and Noah have racked up an impressive 4,302 runs… although let’s be honest, Mark has scored 4,000 of them!

Mark, the obvious batting talent of the pair, has consistently piled on the runs and shown exactly what a proper batsman looks like.

Then there’s Noah, contributing the remaining 302 runs and proving that sometimes it’s not about the runs you score, but simply the entertainment you provide along the way. A true specialist in being an idiot, but we wouldn’t have him any other way.

4,302 runs between them. One batsman. One idiot. What a partnership. 🏏😂
