This feast of all that is good in schoolboy cricket has been marked by a healthy number of hundreds, tidy wicket-hauls and a host of exciting matches that have gone down to the wire.

Today is the final day and is sure to produce much of the same, with the 9.30am start seeing some of the nine matches being played as T20 clashes while others will be 40-over or 50-over encounters.
