41.6 W Stiles to Forrest
Attempts the cut but the ball is lower than Forrest anticipated and he only succeeds in chopping it onto his own stumps! Bowled him, albeit with some assistance!
41.5 W Stiles to Jongikhaya
That was struck back hard at Stiles and if he hadn't caught it he would have been wearing the ball as an earring

Stiles 2 in 2, opposition in trouble.

End of Over 42: 186-5, runrate=4.43
Stiles 9-1-40-2
Sephake* 110 (131 balls)
Wilberforce 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Forrest b. Stiles 0 (FOW: 186/5)
 
End of Over 48: 199-10, runrate=4.15
Alder 8-1-28-3
Chambers* 0 (4 balls)

Should be a comfortable chase.

0.5 4 Wilberforce to Stiles
Nicely picked up off the toes to a vacant square leg boundary.

2.4 4 Wilberforce to Stiles
A big edge fine of third man.

2.5 6 Wilberforce to Stiles
That's huge ...... the fielders are going to need a taxi to get that ball back.

3.2 6 Forrest to Stiles
Look at Stiles, he looks glorious. He's kept that pose for an extra second, so all the photographers can get him in focus.

4.3 4 Wilberforce to Stiles
Short rising ball just outside off, Stiles frees the arms and back cuts in the air, through the gap between the slips and gully, down to the vacant third man boundary.

End of Over 6: 53-0, runrate=8.83, reqrunrate=3.34 (199-10)
Forrest 3-0-23-0
Stiles* 41 (22 balls)
Gilroy 12 (14 balls)

Stiles on fire, completely outplaying Gilroy.

26.4 1 Appleyard to Stiles
Swept to the deep backward square leg for a single, Wilberforce fields.
And that's a century for Stiles! Well played indeed Sir!

3 innings this season, and 3 hundreds. Legend...
 
I won today easily on TIE. Got 347 batting first with both Heath and Hasnsen scoring centuries. bowled them out in just 18 overs for 40 odd runs.
Got an away match again next week. :(
 
And that's the end of the match. Old Wulfs won by 10 wickets.
King Whamo 199-10
Old Wulfs 201-0


End of Over 32: 201-0, runrate=6.28
Chambers 5-0-33-0
Stiles* 108 (88 balls)
Gilroy 92 (101 balls)

An easy victory in the end.
 
End of Over 15: 96-0, runrate=6.40, reqrunrate=1.40 (144-10)
Cooksey 1-0-4-0
Cutler* 49 (52 balls)
Bennett 41 (38 balls)
Resting Folkes, Crouch and Eli. Packer took 5/14 in 9.2 overs on a slow pitch, useful bowler too. Tuckett 4/27, Dwayne Pinnock 1/30, Rudi 0/17 off 7. Atkinson got hammered, 0/47 off 7 in his final game for the club. Should be an easy runchase with this pair, onto round three...

Not too bad of an effort really, but I feel they were only on TIE :crying
 
Bad start by my opening bowlers after 10 overs.

End of Over 10: 49-0, runrate=4.90
Shorey 5-0-26-0
Oli* 25 (36 balls)
Downey 22 (25 balls)

That's better

11.2 W Mohammed to Downey
How high has he hit that? It's dropping, it's dropping... Sam underneath it... GONE!

20 overs up their guys are going ok.

End of Over 20: 100-1, runrate=5.00
Mohammed 5-0-28-1
Oli* 46 (59 balls)
Lucas 22 (34 balls)
