Osama rules. He should be made captain. His pre-match speeches would rock "Kill the infidels.... :laugh

West Indies continue to pile on the runs
The next over from Jeff, who was surprisingly kept on (definitely not something I just forgot to change) bowled an extremely controversial ball. The ball was a rising delivery that caught Wavell Hendricks unaware, and he lofted it straight down God?s throat. But the foolish umpire decided that Jeff?s foot was over the line and it was a no-ball. This prompted much arguing as Jeff believed his foot wasn?t over the line, but was overruled as he was asleep at the time. Jeff bowled rubbish for the rest of the over, locking this over in to being his last of his first spell. West Indies 0/66 off 6 overs.
Osama bowled possibly the greatest ball in his limited cricket career first ball, and it went downhill from there. He wasn?t smashed to all corners of the park at least, due to to reasons. 1) It wasn?t a park, it was a cricket ground. 2) Hendricks was content just smashing him on the legside. West Indies, after another explosive over from Osama, were at 0/80 off 7 and looking extremely comfortable.
Once again, I was fooled by thinking that I didn?t need to remember to change the bowler when I actually did, giving Jeff his fourth and final over for the match. It was a mixed success as many overs so far have been, going for 11 runs but the main positive to come out of it is that Carson Kressley, our wicket-keeper with a flamboyant sexuality, managed to get a feel of Chris Gaist?s firm buttocks. West Indies moved on to 0/91.
Osama returned to send down another six hand grenades, and got more than he bargained for this time, as he got to bowl eight due to his tendency to bowl no-balls. Jeff was caught napping yet again, out on the boundary not concentrating on the potential catch coming his way, and letting it bounce before it got to him. The over was still a great success though, Osama bowling two dot balls, a rare commodity in this match thus far. The West Indies moved to 0/97 off 9 overs.
The way the match was going, it became increasingly obvious to captain Denny Crane that a change was needed. Not just the fact that they were losing but also the fact that Jeff had bowled his maximum four overs and a change was actually needed due to the rules. So he brought on his star bowler, the man with the longest biography but the shortest name in the team, God. His leg-spin prompted the first show of respect from the batsman, as would be expected, the first actual block. (although the batsman did advance down the wicket before blocking it.) The West Indies moved to 0/105 off 10 overs, with the Famous XI desperately needing a wicket or at least another dot ball at some stage in the next 5 overs.

Hahaha Carson Kressley...
What a delivery by God, legend. He should be crowned the next Jesus.

I should think that God would be taking more wickets!

Osama bowled another average over, with eyebrows being raised over why on earth he was picked in the first place. It?s commonly known you only ever try to keep a criminal in your team if he is a star player a la Ben Cousins. One productive part of this over was that one of Chris Gaist?s boundaries revealed a man urinating against a wall in one of the stands. Sadly this man escaped as his face was not visible. 0/118 off 11 overs.
The next over produced the first possible wicket of the match, an LBW shout off a slider from God bowled to Wavell Hendricks. It wasn?t given, a decision the umpire should have been made to regret but due to God being such a forgiving person the umpire was forgiven. Wavell Hendricks, feeling extremely fortunate to have gotten away with his attempted reverse sweep, knuckled down the next ball and hit a reverse sweep for six in a typical realistic EA Sports fashion. At the end of the over the West Indies were 0/131 off 12 overs.
An inspired introduction of Queen frontman Freddy Mercury produced the ball that the Famous XI so desperately needed. Yes, he hit Wavell Hendrix in the head. This collision between ball and helmet rattled Hendrix to the extent that he only hit the next two balls for eight runs instead of the more commonly hit twelve. After this though, a rank full toss was lofted by Wavell straight to Osama bin Laden at a forward square leg/midwicketish sort of position. Regardless of what position Osama was actually in, he held the catch and that prompted Carson Kressley to give him a peck on the cheek followed by something which should not be described on this family-friendly forum. What followed was almost as amazing, the ball was hit out to Jesus, who, breaking the trend set by his teammates, actually threw in the ball well. This resulted in the runout of Chris Gayle, and the West Indies crumbled to 2/143 off 13 overs, with two new batsmen at the crease. In the picture below is Osama?s catch, with the background showing Carson too scared to look, knowing that Osama was bound to drop it.
God?s over to follow Freddy?s was not nearly as exciting, producing many boundaries and no wickets. One highlight of the over though was Jeff actually stopping a ball without fumbling it or dropping a catch beforehand, a noticeable improvement on his efforts earlier in the game. This nearly promoted Jeff to being the second-worst fieldsman in the team, but unfortunately he still is the worst. The Windies moved to 2/154 off 14 overs.
Freddy Mercury?s second over was clearly inferior to his first. His bowling let him down almost as much as his fielders. Jeff was once again in fine form, showing the cricket world how many different ways there are to give away runs, and even Jesus dropped a catch which he appeared to try and catch in his halo. The West Indies appeared to be, once again, forming a solid partnership, the total racing to 2/174 off 15.
