Bracing self, preparing to check score...

End of Over 25: 194-0, runrate=7.76

ugh

 

[Gilly Fan]

Is that you, angry?

 

[angryangy]

God no.

Here's a tip, if you're hoping to over balance a top heavy beast, go defensive. A confident manager is likely to put his dominant players in overdrive against any inferior competition. Aggressive orders often fail against defensive bowling. You might just be able to eke an advantage.

 

[Gilly Fan]

So was that my batting?

 

[handsome]

@ gilly you won. Batted first and scored 333 , and the opposition was all out for 91.

End of Over 15: 64-0, runrate=4.27
Chanderpaul 1-0-6-0
Stride* 35 (49 balls)
Padayachie 25 (41 balls)

I am being very slow with my RR, something that i want to stay at No.1 position

 

[Gilly Fan]

Woo! Awesome win! Great century from Myall. And a great innings from my new star youngster. Unlucky on the ton though.

Woo! A pop to mediocre. But Barra is going so that will be down to feeble next week. I still can't get my middle order to feeble.

 

[Griffo]

I needed 7 runs an over in the last 10 and got it! Scoring the winning run on the third last ball after two wickets before it...

My order change worked with my new opening batsmen hitting a century and some low order slogging getting me over the line!

 

[handsome]

Well done griffo and gilly.....congrats

End of Over 41: 209-1, runrate=5.10

Wanting notthing less than 300 here.

 

[aussie1st]

Still no 100 for Chav

Baggy Blues 2/319 (Ray 114, Steele 83, Chavhanga 77*)
fingerbuns 10/171 (Sawyer 5-36, Clayden 3-33)

Looks like I needed another batter bowling, Clayden again the pick of the bowlers and Sawyer picking up a 5 fer is good.

[viral1991]

I lost my match today against a slightly stronger team.

 koinaaa1 won by 5 wickets.
Sri Krishna Team	77-10
koinaaa1	78-5

The bowlers bowled superbly to get their 5 wickets!

 

[arunj1]

My opening bowlers were bad, but my other bowlers are doing well atm.

After 10 ovrs, the opposition were 43-0.

but now, after 22 ovrs, they are 72-3 :happy:

Good win for you. I love watching nailbiters particuarly when they go your way. I remember winning my first game in a nailbiter. Good times
