Hooper how much did Bennett hit?



On a slow deck im not quite sure on when to declare but I will bat out the day and assess it after I came back from cricket training. James made a brilliant hundred which set up the innings with good support from most of the batsmen.

Into my "tail" now with Mason a decent bat as well as Carrington and Mbeki to come who can belt it around Hamilton playing well and all the batsmen have taken control of two of the weakest bowlers where all my runs seemingly have come from



CANT WAIT FOR MORRISON TO RETURN TO THE BOWLING CREASE :p
I dont know yet, I dont know how to check because we are late in the innings.
 
It should be a easy win for you Syl :)

And in my game,

End of Over 59 (3 runs). HuntingTigers: 203-2, runrate=3.44
Lead by 57 runs. (Warrior_Lions 146-10)


Alshaun 12-3-39-0
Alshaun* 35 (41 balls)
Malik 41 (50 balls)

Last Wicket: Rampaul c. Mohammed b. Alshaun 54 (FOW: 134/2)

Its a home game.. So expecting three days of play...

Way 217
Dodge 169
Browne 59 n.o.

Mec Warriors 56 (40.3)
Moodley 7/31 (19.0)
Cable 2/8 (9.3)

Moodley 4/16 (14.0)
Cable 4/16 (14.0)

Fighting Mongooses won by an innings and 412 runs.

Points

Mec Warriors: 1
 
Very nice Suren looks like you need to set a very high declaration total.
Got your wish there Angy.

Mohammed is starting to become very threatening for my club.
39.5 W Mohammed to Sifiso
Mohammed floats in the slower ball, Sifiso mistimes it and it ricochets off the edge of the bat into the safety of Masibulele's gloves.
 
angy did you get your team name from futurama? you didnt respond to my rep :(

syl you need to help me to find ways to beat sean.... i dont want him to win this weekend but its at his home ground :(

Mason and Carrington both went for low scores leaving Mbeki to hold up the tail. Hamilton has impressed but scoring well against the better bowlers.

End of Over 103 (5 runs). The Top Class Kids: 450-7, runrate=4.37
Lead by 177 runs. (the one hit wonders 273-10)
Langhammer 18-1-72-1
Mbeki* 3 (4 balls)
Hamilton 63 (99 balls)
 
Hehe Sean team is a few levels ahead of you atm, your best hope is if he rests some guys.

There that guy is again, just missed his hattrick.

43.3 W Mohammed to Archer
He might make a good lumberjack with a swing like that, but the only timber coming down on this occasion was the stumps behind him.
43.2 W Mohammed to Howell
Attempted flick off his legs, but makes no contact and it cannons into leg stump!

End of Over 46 (Maiden). Pups Package: 91-8, runrate=1.98 (1st Inn: 33-10)
Trail by 394 runs. (Baggy Blues 518-10)
Mohammed 9-3-10-4
Heath* 2 (5 balls)
Clarke 30 (83 balls)
Last Wicket: Archer b. Mohammed 0 (FOW: 88/8)
 
I know this.... What im saying is how can we hack his account :p

Mbeki goooonnneee...... Roberts a genuine tailender comes in and is.... blitzing them???

End of Over 115 (6 runs). The Top Class Kids: 501-8, runrate=4.36
Lead by 228 runs. (the one hit wonders 273-10)
Langhammer 24-2-108-1
Hamilton* 85 (137 balls)
Roberts 25 (19 balls)

Roberts' Boundary Blitz

112.1 6 Langhammer to Roberts
And that's in the air and six runs, brilliant shot from Roberts. I wonder what must be going through Langhammer's head after that shot.

112.3 4 Langhammer to Roberts
Was it four or six? I can't tell from up here, but the umpire has signalled four.

112.6 6 Langhammer to Roberts
That's how you do it, just lean into it and smack it over the fence

These runs are really gonna help in the long run, I hope Hamilton can reach his century before running out of partners
 
End of Over 46 (Maiden). chipper11: 131-6, runrate=2.85 (1st Inn: 278-10)
Lead by 136 runs. (Mental Blank 273-10)
Faulkner 12-2-26-3
Breen* 0 (12 balls)
Harding 12 (28 balls)

This is how it is panning out for me. Geez Faulkner is bowling well on a flat pitch. He picked up four wickets in the first innings.
 
angy did you get your team name from futurama?
yes.

Leela: "This is getting confusing. Why can't we call our universe 'Universe A' and your universe, 'Universe B'."
Evil Bender: "Hey, why can't we be 'Universe A'?"
Fry: "We called it first. Besides, this place kinda feels like a 'B', you know?"
Evil Leela: "All right, you can be crumby 'Universe A' and we'll be 'Universe 1'."
Evil Fry: "Or, 'The Mongooses', that's a cool team name! The Fighting Mongooses!"
 
Thats nice Syl :)

And in my game, batsmen are having a nice time at the crease,

End of Over 115 (4 runs). HuntingTigers: 427-4, runrate=3.71
Lead by 281 runs. (Warrior_Lions 146-10)

Moodley 18-5-56-0

Paki* 7 (7 balls)
Field 89 (150 balls)

Last Wicket: Alshaun Run Out 148 (FOW: 416/4)

No plans for declarations today ;)
 
I am facing a very strong team!

Code:
 End of Over 21 (6 runs, 1lb). Sri Krishna Team: 92-0, runrate=4.38 (1st Inn: 132-10)
Trail by 283 runs. (Bacchanalians 507-3 dec)
Harley*	40 (52 balls)
Moodley	46 (77 balls)

Their spin bowling is rated 'sensational' & one of his spinners plays for Team India! But I am sure that my batsmen can take the match to the last day, which is important as its a home game! :)

@Suren : Thats a superb batting performance! :clap

@Syl : That was a big win! :)

AHAHAH i saw that episode the other day and thought.... i wanna name my battrick team that.... wait dont i know a team called that? then i saw it and knew it had to be true

Very annoyed that as soon as I left for cricket training I didnt take any wickets and my best bowler was getting flogged around

Need one more wicket but my 5th option is on atm!!! I dont know how much time is left but the last day is shorter so im worried
