Another success story for the Baggy Blues

21.3 4 Nugent to Germon
Flicked with finesse off Germon's legs and deep fine leg has no chance.

Debut 50 for the Baggy Blues

22.1 4 Lawson to Germon
Superb hook shot by Germon, and Aldridge desperately dives to try and stop it crossing the rope, but all he manages to do is knock it up a drain pipe; a few minutes later he manages to fish it out and the match can continue.
And that's his fifty! Well played.

22.6 4 Lawson to Germon
Inside edged. He didn't really pick that one up very well but never mind, it's still four runs to the cause!

Excellent way to bring up the 50

25.6 6 Nugent to Masibulele
Oh dear, buffet bowling from Nugent. Masibulele helps himself to a maximum with glee. Miller is stationed on the boundary but all he can do is watch it pass overhead and into the crowd. Terrible bowling.
And that's his fifty! Well played.

End of Over 26: 129-0, runrate=4.96, reqrunrate=0.17 (132-10)
Nugent 8-0-47-0
Germon* 64 (80 balls)
Masibulele 53 (78 balls)

Your games already finished Gilly!

The match is over. Gillys Demolition Team won by 282 runs.

[angryangy]

Just saw the rating Angry what on earth, basically equal apart from your spin bowling which was proficient!

His first two seam bowlers are a lot better than his other two, but that is still amazingly random. It's slightly possible he GFIed, but somehow that is my worst ever chase. At least I've got an easy one next week.

 

[aussie1st]

Yea he must have GFI to get a result like that.

Another 10 wicket win and no Chavhanga Hope I can win the toss next week.

26.3 4 Lawson to Masibulele
Masibulele seems to have all the time in the world here. He picks his spot and drives the ball comfortably wide of mid off.

And that's the end of the match. Baggy Blues won by 10 wickets.

first spell of two my best bowlers is up.

11.4 W Dickman to Akhlagullah
What an extraordinary dismissal! A sharp yorker from Dickman, caught the batsman on the toes. Akhlagullah collapses on all fours from the blow, but his partner has set off for a single. poor Akhlagullah is out of his ground and will have to limp back to the pavillion.

Thats wht we r talking about. Come on guys now rip through rest.

Me? What are you talking about?

Go Dickman!

Lampard nearing in on a great century. Need a few good overs and hopefully that will get me home.

 

[Gilly Fan]

Wow. That's wicked! I just came home from school.

Myall played so well! So did Saich!

Good win though. Great stuff from them. Too bad they couldn't press on and make 350 for me.

Awesome win for you Sean . Nearly by 300 runs. I am sure that would help your net run rate heaps.

Hmm. I thought my batting would have been atleast mediocre. A resp and a competent batter who put on a partnership of 240.

 

[Left_Hander]

And on a green pitch as well. A good win nonetheless

 

[Gilly Fan]

I'm playing Jaz (Jaztheman) on the weekend. Should be a good contest.

He has a stronger squad overall, but it still should be good.

Not doing well. need to get him under 200 otherwise no good.

Lol they have to be way better than that.

Me? What are you talking about?

Nah he meant me!
You're pretty much sunk now Zain.
