New to this story, but just read it all in one fell swoop! Great stuff Briggsy, maybe if you carry on like this you may have to do a story about Shaun Briggs as an England player..... (But maybe not an ODI player yet!)

Thanks for the comments guys! Zorax is right thats what I do, enables the focus to be just on Briggs whilst playing, which IMO is better and saves a lot more time!

What happens on the bowling though because you can overshoot itr on Autoplay and miss 2 or 3 overs

I autoplay 5 overs each time, so autoplay 10-15 overs for the openers, then I bring myself on. I guess so far i have been lucky that none of my overs have been autoplayed but by doing it this way there are obvious risks so I do expect it to happen at some point but that cant be helped.

Hopefully you can expect Yorkshire to have won the first roses encounter of the season and a Briggs 5 wicket haul!

Yorkshire Crush Lancashire To Take First Roses Clash
At Headingly
Yorkshire ran riot at Headingly today to claim victory in the first roses clash of the season, and improve their promotion hopes at the same time. An amazing bowling effort from the Yorkshire bowlers saw them bowl out Lancashire for 118 despite being frustrated at the end when Anderson and Hegg put on 28 in 2 hours, which gave Lancashire some hope. Shaun Briggs was the pick of the bowlers taking 5 wickets in what has been an amazing game for the youngster.
From Briggs View
The best bowling performance of the season from Briggs saw him pick up his first 5 wicket haul of the season. Briggs bowled brilliantly despite going for a few in his first spell, he came back with a bang in the second picking up 4 of the 5 he eventually took. Lancashire had no answer to Briggs' bowling and will be hoping they dont face him for a while!

Stunning performance by Briggs and this confirms his transformation as a top allrounder in the longer version of the game. GOod going.
Great game! A century, a fifty, and a five-for! Doesn't get much better then that! Jesus, Lancs last innings was slow going wasnt it? They managed to take it right to the wire, you didnt have much time left....

Yes is does, two double centurys and a 20-wicket haul in the match.
