14th-18th December: Great Britain v Rest of World - FINAL

Very bad performance by us. Good batting by me in the 2nd but very bad in the 1st inning.

Anyway, bette luck next time and congratulations LF!
 
Well done GB. Shame we couldn't have made more of a match of it but I think we far from disgraced ourselves. Proud of all the team. It was a pleasure to be part of the ROW squad.
 
Another brilliant all-round performance guys. :) We were the best team in the tests and deserved this.
 
Great Britian smashed ROW. Won the game in three days, complete domination.
 
Surely that was some kind of joke! Haha how easy! We dominated from start to finish and in the end made the final ours for the taking. Great stuff Team GB, now we return to our home clubs, with the prospect of thrashing each other around the park to come! ;)
 
What a Win! LF batted amazing and wolf and trev were awesome with the bowl. We fully deserved the win!
 
Normal pitch.
So...

KX - great series so far, real dangerous batsman and gets us off to fliers. Need another one from him.
Vinters - Many solid innings, but a great one in the game prior to this seals his spot. Need another solid performance.
TheDon - Brilliant debut, can't drop him.
Simbazz - Right, I hope Simbo reads this. He made a lot of huff over being dropped, and so I've made way for him by dropping h123786, who hasn't done badly at all. This was a very tough move -I was tempted to keep the same lineup that won us the game vs. Ind/Pak- but Simbazz says he deserves a spot, so time for him to show it. He was dropped for slamming quick fifties and getting out. If we are to win, he has to keep going on.
Maxkarter - Was an effective allrounder in the OD games, but just barely holds onto his spot here. He knows he can do better, its time he shows it. I have faith he'll bring the goods. Batting at 5, he has plenty of good bats around him and enough time to settle in.
WildWil - Star wicketkeeper batsman, he hasn't had a great series yet, and is due a big one. I know it, he knows it, and we all know it. He has to bring his A game here.
Hxcrocker - Initially batting at 7 as a form of punishment, he now bats at 7 cause he is absolutely brilliant there. Many fantastic rear-guard performances down the order, including a great knock last game, and his ability to bat well with the tail keeps him here.
Zoraxdoom - Inspirational manager and captain, not only am I undroppable, I am also a useful bat and a good bowler, with a MOTM performance against Aus/NZ. Go me. But I'll really need a solid allround performance here, basically to support the three frontline bowlers with some economical bowling and a few wickets, and to bat long and form partnerships with the main batsmen, providing them support.
GrayNicolls - Premier legspinner -and also a decent bat- he has won us many games with the ball. We expect another match
CNBD_Novice - Good frontline seamer who shifts from strike to stock bowler very well, he's bowled a huge number of overs this tournament, and another heart filled performance will be needed to see us through.
Voldemort - Basically playing as we have no one else who can bowl, he takes the odd wicket here and there and scores some runs from 11. As long as he goes for under 6 and over, we are all happy.

Right, very sorry to h123786 who misses out, and to WC and Jaz who didn't get a game this series.
Go ROW!

I was the 3rd highest ODI scorer for us and I didn't get a game in the Tests.:(
 
Probably because Zorax was clever, you're our ODI specialist, rather like Paul Collingwood was at one time. You have to break into the squad, good chance is you'll take my place after that last game, but you know what, good season Cricsim and i should be fine!

Good Origin Series i reckon, good idea, and ROW did ourselves proud against the mights of Australiasia (does this include Australia/Newzealand and Pak/Ind?)
