7.6 W Tahir to Fontaine
Fontaine has mistimed that and Caskey is under it. Will he catch it?...YES! What a magnificent catch.

I'm getting hammered. Cmon Lisbie. He'll steady things when he comes on.
End of Over 9: 68-1, runrate=7.56, reqrunrate=6.02 (314-3)
Garricks 5-0-46-0
Mattheus* 26 (28 balls)

Last Wicket: Fontaine c. Caskey b. Tahir 33 (FOW: 61/1)
 
Bugger my chance of winning the match more than likely went with Chav. He was on fire too.
43 runs off 33 balls
14.2 W Calcutt to Chavhanga
Oh, what a catch! Crouch takes a brilliant catch after a hard cut shot from Chavhanga. They're amongst the hardest of catches to take from spinners.

End of Over 16: 92-2, runrate=5.75, reqrunrate=6.26 (304-2)
Mccaw 3-0-22-0

Fitzpatrick* 7 (16 balls)
Dennis 39 (49 balls)
Last Wicket: Hamilton c. Bridges b. Lisbie 0 (FOW: 128/3)

Good contest here. Lisbie took 2 quick wickets to put me back in this match.
 
As expected I lost, after losing my star batters wasn't much else. Bowled out for half his total.

Baggy Blues North Gardiner CC
Top Order: respectable superb
Middle Order: feeble proficient
Lower Order: worthless worthless
Seam Bowling: competent proficient
Spin Bowling: mediocre respectable
Fielding: woeful feeble

Mawson* 16 (27 balls)
Furlong 2 (3 balls)
Last Wicket: Fikile lbw b. Clarke 0 (FOW: 52/4)

Getting utterly destroyed today, very very weak squad playing.... I hope I make at least 100 :p

10.4 W Beeks to Mawson
What a magnificent shot! No, he's out. Caught by Kennedy in the deep.

Make that target around 60 or 70 now.......

Playing a top Div2 side today and making a great effort of it in my eyes:

Current Situation:

End of Over 41: 136-9, runrate=3.32
Mcclaren 6-0-12-1
Vernon* 18 (23 balls)
Anthony 0 (1 balls)
Last Wicket: Mensing c. Nelson b. Mcclaren 4 (FOW: 134/9)

The recovery had to start after being 4/3 and 19/5, Appleyard came in and hit a fantastic 42, and Wallis and Marsh and Vernon have played excellently around him, until he got out! :p Now, can I dream of reaching a bowlable at target? On my slow slow pitch...with a strong bowling attack?

EDIT - 139ao, great effort.

H&F

Raiders Eleven 359-3
Sneaky Penguins 82-10
 
Me vs Zorax! Should go down to the wire:

End of Over 28: 148-0, runrate=5.29, reqrunrate=6.77 (296-6)
Wilkerson 9-0-61-0
Wainwright* 58 (86 balls)
Armstrong 81 (82 balls)

I'm batting
 
He won in 49.3 overs. I rested 3 bowlers, 1 batter and 1 keeper though. And if you count the allrounder who hasn't played for me in the last few games due to PFL reasons, that's only 5/11 players left, so it isn't too bad :p Just a shame that my only frontline bowler left gave away the winning runs :(
Nicholl bowled great though. Pushing for a first XI spot...
