I'll wait for 1 hour more! if BKB gives me a line up, I'll take that. Or else, I'll use this:).
 
I just edited my above line-up, just look at the bowlers, and the batting line-up carefully. :)
 
I am really sorry for the delay guys. My internet connection has been cut of for two days and atm on my mob.
As for the team for the final, I want two changes to the lineup Callum posted.

- Swann in place of Wagner and Swann bats @ 10
- Symonds to bowl instead of Malik


Hope its clear, Go Volts!

Mate, I've already simmed the match:doh!

And Thank god, you are a good guy!

I have back up of all Cricsim files after each match as my cricsim is the one which can't be believed, which may give trouble at any time!

So, No probs, we'll have a another match simmed as I've got BU of your team files after he Semi Finals, which will be used to sim!


I'm going to examination ATM, so I'll post the match by 02:00PM IST!:).

I would Like to Thank All our sponsors first, and the sponsorship was carried from the first abandoned season. I'd like to Thank the integrated members of Clash of Titans, Callum Gray (CG123), Sartaj (bcvstheworld) and Kurtiz Davidson (Biggy).

Now after this, a short tournament here will go on between the Champions of KFC T20 Bigbash and Indian Premier League,
The DLF- KFC T20 Extravaganza for the
Ganguly Gilchrist Trophy, Season 2

I've confirmed the managers personally because putting up the thread open for managers and getting more response makes me bit hungry to run a bigger competition and when I start that, my cricsim starts troubling:laugh!

So the Teams Participating in Ganguly Gilchrist Trophy are:
1) Victoria Bushrangers. (Managed by bcvstheworld)
2) Chennai Super Kings. (Managed by Yashwanth Kumar).

So, this is it, the Clash of Titans season 1 has been successfully held. And I promise that we'll be having some more teams from other leagues in next season, which may start after 5-6 months. So, the next edition will be a bigger one!

Great work Binnu, finally getting a PC style champions league done.
Why didn't Bond open the bowling for the Volts? :eek:
 
That's how Flintoff works on his day and Chris Martin might not be handy with the bat but the guy killed with the ball
Steady batting from Bopara and super support from the upper order, Volts were just dominated
