Ah, it would have been good to have you on board. I kept the signups open for a day or so and assumed you were busy when I didn't see you post here during that time.


Well, this was a thing I missed out on while trying to focus 99% of my time on my exams.


Probably for the best. Wish you luck for the exams. :thumbs




You would've been a dead certainty for any other team. It was your misfortune that Kumbis, a manager from the time of this league's infancy also declared interest in the same team.

Virat+Kohli+Australia+v+India+4th+Test+Day+uPA7m1gLU4Wl.jpg


Virat Kohli and Steven Smith turned their teams fortunes in the second innings with a huge 228-run stand, leaving a lineup featuring some of Test cricket's greatest seam bowlers absolutely powerless in the process. Both went on to bring up their respective centuries. The legends of the Golden Age were given 299 to chase in the fourth innings.

Rangana+Herath+England+v+Sri+Lanka+1st+Investec+CNi0O1ULIsrl.jpg


They fell more than a 100 runs short with Rangana Herath claiming 4 for 26 from just 9.4 overs to show English pitches weren't all about pace.

Despite his unmatched penchant for humongous scores in this league, Don Bradman generally takes a few rounds to get to his best whenever a Legends At Battle season gets underway. But not this time. That in itself is a hugely frightening prospect for all bowlers set to be taking part in the tournament.

@Naman Thakur
 
Just out of interest @VC the slogger , what did you rate Bradman for this match. If you like you can PM me the rating.


78 when I last checked. And IIRC somewhere in the 60s for that match where he got a triple ton.

EDIT: Also, I played the match on a normal pitch to avoid the unrealistic glut of boundaries or strike-rates in the 100s that you would otherwise get with such ratings on excellent and poor pitches.

Following a mediocre first innings where they were bowled out for just 240, the Professional XI came back with a vengeance in the second innings to bury the One-Test Wonders under a humongous lead of 605. Brian Lara and Allan Border both recorded centuries, with Sunil Gavaskar only narrowly missing out.

The eventual margin of defeat didn't do justice to the One-Test Wonders, who played a lot better than the scorecards suggest. Gus Kempis, who played in South Africa's inaugural Test match in 1889 showed what a brilliant bowler he could be on his day with a 6-wicket haul to dismantle the Professional XI lineup in the first innings, and finished with 9 for the match. Stuart Law, with two plucky half-centuries to his name also provided a glimpse of what might have been if only his Test career hadn't coincided with that of Ricky Ponting.

Despite the slip up in the first innings, we showed why we are just too good. I think our bowling attack might just be the best in the tournament. And we've got Hadlee and Botham on the bench.
