End of Over 14: 78-0, runrate=5.57, reqrunrate=6.33 (305-8)
Malik 2-0-2-0
Tau* 39 (51 balls)
Mohammed 34 (33 balls)


13.6 . Malik to Mohammed
Guided to the point fielder.
13.5 1 Malik to Tau
Played down to third man for the single.
13.4 . Malik to Tau
Quick delivery, bit of lift, Tau went for the cut but it beats the bat.
13.3 . Malik to Tau
Fullish ball angling into the legs, tries to clip it through mid wicket but misses and the ball balloons away to the off side of the pitch from the pad.
13.2 . Malik to Tau
Padded away outside off stump.
13.1 . Malik to Tau
Tau, on the front foot, defends to the cover region. Green moves across and prevents a single.

Malik the spinner doing some damage control on a dusty pitch. Green who was the other spinner opened well but did not get wickets. Maybe i should have kept him as first change.

End of Over 15: 87-0, runrate=5.80, reqrunrate=6.26 (305-8)
Heller 3-0-24-0
Tau* 41 (54 balls)
Mohammed 41 (36 balls

look at this chap , getting hammered all over. I have to look for bowlers now.

End of Over 22: 113-0, runrate=5.14, reqrunrate=6.89 (305-8)
Green 6-0-23-0
Mohammed* 52 (55 balls)
Tau 54 (77 balls)

Things getting a bit stable. But seriously lloking for wickets now. lack ofpenetration by bowlers is a concern for me.Even if i win this , bowlers will be hammered agaist a much tougher opposition.

Not much you can do about the bowling or batting for that matter until you get lots of cash.

Last Wicket: Mohammed c. Richardson b. Malik 82 (FOW: 176/2)

Getting close to the first loss of the season.

You just need a surge of wickets and you will be fine hadsome.

End of Over 2: 4-0, runrate=2.00
Otto 1-0-2-0
Sephake* 3 (9 balls)
Grewcock 1 (3 balls)

Tight start. Could use an early wicket, as I could on Friday, but a much better chance of getting one today. Grewcock'll be tough to shift, but Sephake is (judging from his wage) a Superb who only has a BTR of 12,000, so there's very little in the way of secondaries there - he shouldn't last long.

 

[Jaztheman]

I am doing really poor here not happy.(They are 10 times better though)

End of Over 3: 16-0, runrate=5.33
Lekgwathi 2-0-9-0
Coker* 6 (9 balls)
Ince 10 (9 balls)

 

[FreddieFan]

3.2 W Otto to Grewcock
Charges the delivery, struck in the air but not very far, Gilroy takes the catch at mid wicket a few metres inside the circle.

Shows what I know Big wicket, he's at least a Remarkable from his wage (nearly 10k) and has 35k BTR. Should be plain sailing from here.

 

[Jaztheman]

Lucky you FF, look at mine

4.2 . Lekgwathi to Ince
The batsman was about an inch away from treading on his stumps there as he jumps back to defend a very quick short ball.

4.6 1 Lekgwathi to Ince
My that was close! Ince looked to cut a short wide ball towards point but gets a thick inside edge and the ball whistled past leg stump. Lucas has no chance of stopping it and they take a single.

End of Over 5: 27-0, runrate=5.40
Lekgwathi 3-0-13-0
Ince* 16 (16 balls)
Coker 11 (14 balls)

End of Over 25: 110-2, runrate=4.40
Stone 6-0-23-1
Oakley* 3 (9 balls)
Sephake 59 (81 balls)

Nice and tight. Stone has picked up a wicket, and is bowling nicely after an expensive start.
