Rugby

The big story this week was the return of Premiership Rugby and Harlequins failed to disappoint as they won at The Stoop.

Despite being the underdogs in terms of league position Quins defeated Sale Sharks 16-10 to the delight of fans watching at home.

Harlequins went in 9-0 up after three penalties at half time and despite a tricker second half they saw the game out with an impressive 16-10 win.

The Twickenham outfit remain in 7th place and travel away to already relegated Saracens at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday.

Cricket

Teddington Cricket Club's first team bounced back this week with an important 124 run win away at Shepherd's Bush in the Middlesex County Cricket League.

However rivals Ealing also won meaning Teddington are still second in the league at the moment.

The second team also picked up a win at Bushy Park defeating local rivals Twickenham by 77 runs.

This now means the second team lead their division by nine points.

The third team however lost their first match of the season, being defeated by Eastcote - but nly by two wickets.

This cut their lead at the top to just two points with Richmond thirds firmly on their heels.
