Story Auckland Aces World Tour - Bangladeshi Tour Complete!!!
- Thread starter CG123
- Start date
@ Bounce - As I said before I'm happy with how the updates are flowing at the moment.
If you think I'm going for quantity rather then quality go check out my old story in the hall of fame, but ATM I don't have that much time, hence why I've stopped that story and started a new more basic one.
@ Chewie - I had three updates ready, but now they've all been posted before I've had time to write another one up.
Things are pretty busy in real life, plus I'm still trying to find time to make the NZPL rosters.

Toss

My Thoughts
First Innings
A very dominant batting display by us. I wanted to try and get off to a fast start, and Guptill plus Young who came in for Kitchen who was low on fitness provided this, as they put on 58 for our opening partnership. Nicol came to the wicket, and I told him to play his shots, before our two big guns Guptill and Vincent came together. They had a good laugh at the Bangladeshi bowling attack, putting on 106 for the third wicket. de Boorder came and went, before Styris joined Guptill and helped put the icing on the cake. Guptill eventually fell late in our innings for 118, as we finished on 285 for five.
Second Innings
We started off well through Mills and Shaw, but then it all turned to custard. Ashraful and Shakib took McKay and Styris apart, as the 16th to 20th overs costed us a massive 64 runs. Throughout the onslaught the Bangladeshi skipper Shakib raced to a 28 ball 50, including three huge sixes. At that stage we knew we had to play the waiting game, and when we broke through the rest of the Bangladeshi order showed little fight. McKay got himself back in the game, by making Mahmudullah retire hurt, as no one outside the Tigers top five got into double figures. Mills was again the pick of our bowlers, getting through eight overs and only giving away 22 runs.
Post Match
Three nil wipewash in the one day series! Guptill was incredible, scoring 99*, 79 and 118, while Mills and Hira were just too economical and proved to be too hard for the Bangladeshi batsmen to get away. The real test now awaits us, as we head to the green and gold land of Australia. This will more than likely be our toughest tour yet, and our main goal is to just try and be competitive.

Another win for the ACES,
The same 2 guys keep stepping up, well done to Guptill and Mills!
It was more of a team performance in this match with every bowler doing well and every batsman had a handy contribution. Keep It Up

so far its been a pretty good season for the aces but the only team left in the sub-continent is India that'll be a huge challenge for the aces.

Well done Guptill, Well done Mills.
Well played ACES.
Great match there, Guptill single-handedly done it for ACES there, Mills was outstanding, MCkay was expensive. Great series and experience to ACES.

This is Guptill's Season, I could say..
We're not versing India.
Our final series the season (2009/2010) is against Australia.
I don't choose the tours, I have to follow New Zealand's fixtures on ICC09.
The next season (2010/2011) will hopefully done on ICC2010, if I get it in time.
If I don't get it in time, I'll to do a few Aces matches against other New Zealand domestic teams in cricksim.
