Crackerjack! He's been beaten all ends up by that one. Middle stump out of the ground!

How many of you can uproot the middle stump of a 100k waged exquisite experienced SL NT player?

Hehe that Aziz is your God :)

And more of my God

47.2 4 Chanderpaul to Chavhanga
Slightly over-pitched and he was onto it like a flash. Four runs.
47.1 4 Chanderpaul to Chavhanga
Makes room outside off stump and smears it over the infield for four runs.

Very nice Hamed

48.1 4 Zakauddin to Hamed
Played past a diving mid on fielder for the boundary.
 
End of Over 4: 27-0, runrate=6.75, reqrunrate=3.37 (181-10)
Tahir 2-0-16-0
Zeeshan* 17 (12 balls)

Embarrassing, very very embarrassing.

Ettienne 10-0-83-0
Mirza* 16 (12 balls)
Gowshall 167 (141 balls)

Last Wicket: Rahim b. Rahim 29 (FOW: 306/3)

Non of my god did anything today.
i cant chase that.
 
49.5 4 Chanderpaul to Chavhanga
The edge could have been caught had Donaldson dived to his left, but the ball races away for four behind him.
And that's a century for Chavhanga! Well played indeed Sir!

2nd successive 100 in a friendly for the Chavnator. And the usual not out :p

No hope of defending this total but oh well.

End of Over 50: 256-5, runrate=5.12
Chanderpaul 10-0-53-2
Chavhanga* 102 (91 balls)
Hamed 14 (12 balls)

Well played Chav. :clap

Caskey 4-0-21-0
Angus* 19 (19 balls)
Zeeshan 24 (23 balls)

Can't seem to get my team out of the terrible form slump.
My bowlers are bowling terribly bad for bowlers that are meant to be in good form!

Reverse swing?

7.1 . Tahir to Angus
Hmm, was that a bit of reverse swing for Tahir there? Angus certainly looked concerned.

Wish I had played my best seam attack, would have been interesting seeing if they could have defended this total.
End of Over 2: 15-0, runrate=7.50, reqrunrate=5.04 (256-5)
Shorey 1-0-9-0
Lewis* 5 (6 balls)
Key 8 (6 balls)
 
End of Over 47: 293-6, runrate=6.23
Whittingham 9-0-59-2
Atapattu* 11 (15 balls)
Ratnayake 5 (3 balls)

41.4 W Ryno to Chaminda
Murray, leaping like a tireless salmon returning to the spawning grounds, pocketed a glorious catch just inside the boundary rope.
42.2 W Whittingham to Hettiarachchi
Pitched up and pushed to cover. Hettiarachchi wanted a run but was sent back. Naidoo threw the ball in and Duminda did the rest. Hettiarachchi was well short.
42.4 W Whittingham to Hathurusingha
A quick ball from Whittingham has taken a big snick and just carried to Naidoo at second slip.
43.4 W Ryno to Lional
Duminda claims the catch. The umpire takes his time making the decision but finally the finger goes up. Ryno is jubilant.
46.2 W Whittingham to Jayakodi
Is that the split finger ball coming back? I think it is. Whittingham has taken just enough pace off the ball to squeeze it under Jayakodi's bat and leave the off stump swaying in the breeze.

259/1 to 293/6... :D
 
Good fightback by your guys

Also a good fightback from my guys. Only 3 runs of the last 2 overs.

End of Over 4: 18-0, runrate=4.50, reqrunrate=5.20 (256-5)
Shorey 2-0-10-0
Key* 9 (9 balls)
Lewis 7 (15 balls)
 
48.4 W Whittingham to Ratnayake
The ball nipped back as he went for the pull and he gets a fine edge. Duminda and Whittingham appeal like one man and the umpire sends Ratnayake back to the changing rooms.

Tails exposed...
 
Shorey might be expensive but hes got me the opening wicket not bad.

Code:
End of Over 6: 33-1, runrate=5.50, reqrunrate=5.09 (256-5)
Shorey	3-0-20-1
Waterhouse*	5 (2 balls)
Key	17 (15 balls)
Last Wicket: Lewis b. Shorey 9 (FOW: 28/1)
5.6 	1	Shorey to Waterhouse
 	 	Waterhouse takes a quick single.
5.5 	4	Shorey to Waterhouse
 	 	That's going down leg, and Waterhouse has just glanced it down wide of the keeper for four. He might want to consider standing back to Shorey.
5.4 	W	Shorey to Lewis
 	 	[COLOR="Red"]A quick delivery and Lewis is left looking back at his stumps. He's gone![/COLOR]
5.3 	1	Shorey to Key
 	 	Manages to give himself room, but can only mistime it to long on for a single.
5.2 	.	Shorey to Key
 	 	Bog standard defensive shot. A snore bore ball.
5.1 	4	Shorey to Key
 	 	He took the risk of playing across the line, but it paid off this time. Four runs.
 
End of Over 16: 93-0, runrate=5.81, reqrunrate=2.62 (181-10)
Lisbie 3-0-7-0
Angus* 36 (46 balls)
Zeeshan 52 (50 balls)

Lisbie bowling brilliantly!

WICKET!!!!!
17.1 W Lisbie to Zeeshan
Too simple! A slower ball from Lisbie makes Zeeshan misjudge his shot and he's lobbed it straight back into Lisbie's hands.

Are these figures good or good?

Lisbie 4-1-7-1

Longrigg gets his first.

20.6 W Longrigg to Raza
Played all over that - silly boy! I hope he likes breakfast cereals, particularly the 'Cheerio' variety because that's the chant he's now getting from the crowd.

End of Over 21: 108-2, runrate=5.14, reqrunrate=2.55 (181-10)
Longrigg 4-0-19-1
Angus* 46 (60 balls)
Inam 0 (0 balls)
Last Wicket: Raza b. Longrigg 4 (FOW: 108/2)

Nearly over.

End of Over 23: 117-2, runrate=5.09, reqrunrate=2.41 (181-10)
Longrigg 5-0-20-1
Angus* 48 (62 balls)
Inam 2 (10 balls)
Last Wicket: Raza b. Longrigg 4 (FOW: 108/2)

Only 1 run from that over.
