Syl at least your PFL will be better for the experience

End of Over 27: 165-2, runrate=6.11
Flack 7-0-34-1
Mattheus* 11 (9 balls)
James 74 (72 balls)

I lost Fontaine for a quick fire 60 odd and Carrington failed to make an effect as my pinch hitter going for 1 so im happy with where im at as I have really only lost one wicket

300 will be good enough to win and I should clear that with ease, im predicting 360
 
Yea only up side. Now I'm ready for my biggest match this season against the top guy.

Latest ratings are very misleading for my next opponents :p

Baggy Blues
Top Order: worthless competent
Middle Order: worthless feeble
Lower Order: worthless worthless
Seam Bowling: worthless feeble
Spin Bowling: useless feeble
Fielding: worthless abysmal
 
Lol my only strength in Battrick is misleading Battrick Ratings and Reporters Summarys, my players arent what people would guess

And that's a century for James! Well played indeed Sir!

James has hit a run a ball century and seems poised to let loose, two aggressive batsmen at the crease with defensive left to come :( (joy of resting players)

End of Over 35: 207-2, runrate=5.91
Adenegan 6-0-28-1
James* 101 (100 balls)
Mattheus 25 (30 balls)

Current situation, any predictions??

Well I set 340 runs for victory and my bowlers seem to be playing with this top order

End of Over 7: 21-4, runrate=3.00, reqrunrate=7.44 (340-4)
Carrington 4-0-13-2
Adenegan* 1 (2 balls)
Yarwood 1 (4 balls)
Carrington continues to improve and Roberts taking wickets with pure aggression

lol :p My FC ratings are even more poor :D hehe.

Well my match started against that Grippie's,

We can tell you that Grippie's won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a bit on the dry side. A fair bit of help for the spinners I think on this partially cloudy and humid day.


Hmmm.. cloudy and humid :p And bowlers have done their job perfectly. :)

End of Over 22: 48-5, runrate=2.18
Hamed 4-2-5-0


Siyabulela* 3 (23 balls)
Paki 31 (50 balls)

Last Wicket: Mohammed st. Bishop b. Walton 5 (FOW: 38/5)

I am on PAN. Good going till now.
 
I won by 220 runs, very very easy although my pinch hitter technique ruined my ratings lol
 
2nd loses to 6th by 1 friggin run. Still at 2nd. But will drop back down next week to 3rd.

Strathmore Heights

5/321
Handbury 4/40

Aussie Bombers
5/320

Garricks 78* (49)
Bridges 71* (63)
Riley 53

How did I lose!?!?! I dunno how I'll stay 2nd for the rest of the season now. Very unlikely.
 
Well, got my opponent Grippie for very low score, :o

End of Over 44: 74-10, runrate=1.68
Clarke 6-2-9-1
Mohammed* 0 (1 balls)

I just can't believe this. Chasing too began,
End of Over 3: 25-1, runrate=8.33, reqrunrate=1.06 (74-10) Cahalane 2-0-14-1
Paki* 14 (10 balls)
Bishop 10 (7 balls)

Last Wicket: Bartlett c. Mohammed b. Cahalane 0 (FOW: 0/1)

Bowlers did a good job in first innings and now, i don't think i will be having much problems to reach the target ;)

Its going like bot-smashing,

End of Over 6: 55-1, runrate=9.17, reqrunrate=0.45 (74-10) Mohammed 3-0-33-0
Bishop* 15 (11 balls)
Paki 39 (24 balls)

Last Wicket: Bartlett c. Mohammed b. Cahalane 0 (FOW: 0/1)

This bowler, "Mohammed 3-0-33-0" is having Drained PFL and hence clearly having no clue where to bowl. ;)

Match Over,

And that's the end of the match. HuntingTigers won by 9 wickets.

Grippie's 74-10
HuntingTigers 76-1


End of Over 10: 76-1, runrate=7.60
Mohammed 4-0-43-0

Paki* 46 (32 balls)
Bishop* 29 (27 balls)

Good game :)

You rested a few too many players, BT seem to have got strict on teams doing that.
 
Fabulous win for my team against a much better, but tired, team.

They batted first and declared on 352-2 (Blom 162, Delgado 145*).

I batted and was bowled out for 409 (Stiles 162, Delgado 38-7-119-4)

They batted again and Alder just destroyed them, 11.2-4-22-9. They were bowled out for 54, with me winning by an innings and 3 runs.

Their team was based on Blom and Delgado, a keeper and an all-rounder. They both got big scores in their first innings but were knackered after mine (Delgado bowling 38 overs). Their lack of batting depth hit them hard.

That is a superb effort from Alder. Nearly took all of the wickets.

Another 10 wicket win for me. Bowled them out for 30 and got the runs in 5.1 overs. Still coming 3rd :happy
 
Bowling first against Effine.
Hiller has had quite the start.

0.3 6 Sam to Hiller
The ground is not big enough to contain Hiller!
0.6 6 Sam to Hiller
He's caught it! Out! No! He's fallen over the boundary rope! Six!

End of Over 1: 12-0, runrate=12.00
Sam 1-0-12-0
Davison* 0 (0 balls)
Hiller 12 (6 balls)

Good fightback

6.6 W Sam to Davison
What a catch! Shorey just plucked that from the air right in front of a spectator. He caught that diving and in his wrong hand.

7.3 W Neil to Benn
Thick edge and... taken by Ray. That was a great catch, Benn just looks on in disbelief.

Im struggling early, Buchan and Hamilton both gone but hopefully Ray Nicholls can lead a fightback
 
Effine is building a solid partnership

End of Over 17: 91-2, runrate=5.35
Candlish 2-0-12-0
Pine* 32 (36 balls)
Hiller 39 (44 balls)
Last Wicket: Benn c. Ray b. Neil 0 (FOW: 38/2)
