Daniel plans a cricket match, but has trouble putting the team together.

Costume drama. Daniel plans a cricket match against a neighbouring village, convinced they cheated in their last match. But recruiting the best possible batsman proves problematic.

Daniel is planning a cricket match against a neighbouring village team, who he is convinced cheated in their last match. He is determined to restore Candleford's honour, but most of Daniel's regular players are away, and the men of Larkrise are cricketing novices. 

A humiliating defeat looks certain, until Daniel discovers that the finest batsman in the county is right under his nose. The only problem is, his batsman is a batswoman, and the rules state women cannot play. 

Will Daniel find a way round the regulations and gain the victory he so desperately wants? And what will it cost his relationship with Laura?
