[aussie1st]

This just sucks couldn't even get my commentary cause his team played that crap.

Novus Ordo 108 all out (Hamed 3-12 from 10 overs, Sawyer 3-44 from 10 overs, Hitish 2-17 from 5.5 overs, Clayden 1-19 from 10 overs)

Baggy Blues 0/109 after 15.1 overs (Ray 66(43), 40(49))

My NRR is going to fly today.

My game just started against the Belgian Lions. They chose to bat and first ball:

0.1 	W	Wali to Beresford
 	 	Beresford shuffles across his stumps to a ball of fullish length from Wali. Trapped plumb in front.

Starting to slow down, but if i can get to 180 or 190 by the 40th over i should reach his score....

36.3 6 Angell to Maughan
Big six over long leg, that was more like a golf shot.

SIX! Staveley comes down the pitch and smashes an overpitched ball for six over cover.

Hopefully a few more of them

Damn, just lost a wicket. I'm wait out of it anyway.

It drifted, gripped on the pitch, turned and bounced. A classical dismissal from Mcdermott.

 

[Brett_Lee]
