That's awesome Viral as I said just needed to get past his quality top order.

I thought that it would be a bit tough to get past his top order! But that duck of
Karthikeyan made it very simple! And the best thing is that I am playing on TIE! :cool:
Code:
0.4 	W	Fordham to Karthikeyan
 	 	He's played on! Swinging at a wide one, the inside edge sends him packing.

The run-chase has been really good so far.

Code:
End of Over 30: 124-4, runrate=4.13, reqrunrate=2.90 (181-10)
Rampaul	10-0-64-0
Sagren*	37 (52 balls)
Haishen	6 (6 balls)

29.6 	4	Rampaul to Haishen
 	 	Straying on the legs, Haishen flicks to the backward square leg fence, a fine shot!
29.2 	4	Rampaul to Sagren
 	 	What a great shot by Sagren. Those are the kind of shots you tell your grandchildren about.
29.1 	4	Rampaul to Sagren
 	 	Lovely, flowing cover drive. Sagren holds the pose for the cameras.

Sagren is playing splendidly again. :)

12.2 W Lekgwathi to Devins
A complete shambles. They've run on a misfield and a direct hit from Wylie sees Devins well short of his ground.

Nicely going here.

End of Over 13: 51-3, runrate=3.92
Lekgwathi 7-0-27-1
Whyte* 5 (3 balls)
Seargeant 5 (12 balls)
Last Wicket: Devins Run Out 16 (FOW: 46/3)
 
Won the toss and batted on my flat home pitch against one of my Top 4 rivals, Largs Claymores.

End of Over 14: 84-0, runrate=6.00
Thebe 2-0-16-0
Chinthaka* 39 (41 balls)
Eagles 44 (44 balls)

Like the look of that! :)
 
End of Over 15: 57-4, runrate=3.80
Austin 1-0-6-0
Broadbridge* 1 (6 balls)
Seargeant 10 (17 balls)
Last Wicket: Whyte b. Crabb 5 (FOW: 51/4)

Crabb with the wicket, just need Seargeant now and then I'm happy.
 
15.1 W Thebe to Eagles
Forward, the ball beats the bat, and middle and leg stump are out of the ground.

Captain Fantastic goes for 49. Not very good, he is one of my in form batsmen and I was hoping for runs.

End of Over 16: 100-1, runrate=6.25
Thebe 3-0-25-1
Chinthaka* 48 (47 balls)
Mccormick 1 (2 balls)

Last Wicket: Eagles b. Thebe 49 (FOW: 90/1)

Reach 100, going at a good rate as well
 
16.3 W Austin to Broadbridge
Nokwe collects that one at full stretch! OUT! Oh and a celebratory roll for the crowd too - this lad's all about the entertainment!

Vey happy

End of Over 17: 65-5, runrate=3.82
Austin 2-0-8-1
Seargeant* 11 (19 balls)
Hill 2 (3 balls)
Last Wicket: Broadbridge c. Nokwe b. Austin 5 (FOW: 63/5)
 
End of Over 25: 142-1, runrate=5.68
Dunne 6-0-29-0
Mccormick* 18 (26 balls)
Chinthaka 73 (77 balls)

Last Wicket: Eagles b. Thebe 49 (FOW: 90/1)

Half way, on a good score and with wickets in hand. We are on target to set a very good score, especially with Challinor, Bradshaw and Riaan to come.

Chinthaka* 95 (107 balls)
Challinor 32 (27 balls)

Last Wicket: Mccormick st. Marsh b. Dunne 19 (FOW: 143/2)

We have slowed a bit and lost Mccormick, but still going strong, especially with Chinthaka who was due for a good score
 
End of Over 50: 297-5, runrate=5.94
Verster 10-0-67-2
Bradshaw* 50 (31 balls)
Machemko 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Riaan c. Marsh b. Verster 0 (FOW: 297/5)

End of the innings and a good go from my batsmen. I think my bowlers can keep them below that. Lets hope anyway. Chinthaka 100, plus 50s for Bradshaw and Challinor. 49 as well for Eagles. Good stuff
