Australian Premier League XIII

Dam, poor pitch.
Will sent you my line-up soon, not sure whether to play Dan or not.
 
YES, we won! What a move to bring in Gul and Duminy before the finals! We've just beaten Sydney so hopefully we can repeat the performance in the big one.

12th (last) in season one, 1st in season two!!!

Incredible stuff by our bowlers, just incredible!!!
The skipper played a blinder for us up top, and the great man brought the game home.
Most of our big guns played their part this season, while there were some useful contributions from our lesser known players.

Thanks Chewie, and cheers Biggy for a great season.

Also now that ICC has Aussie DOM teams, I might be able to get to know the Aussie DOM players a little better.
 
pretty average season for us we choked again :facepalm although we did find some gems in triffit and especially :hpraise malik :hpraise who probably wouldn't have played a game if jayasuriya hadn't got injured.

I am not angry as we did our best. But in the end, Callum's team had the upper hand. Brilliantly played by Tait and well good batting by White.

Sydney deserved the win!

Hope Callum wins the final! :thumbs
