[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Handy partnership here, but don't trust in my batting lineup after Germon and Hamed has ripped teams apart before.

Who are you playing against, Syl

BT Shield :


Raiders Eleven vs Gamer IX @ GCG

End of Over 20: 111-3, runrate=5.55
Youngs 5-0-30-0
Mcgoldrick* 27 (18 balls)
Bignot 44 (66 balls)

Last Wicket: Flower Run Out 10 (FOW: 66/3)

Really a bad start for me Karty and Flower both got run out

Who are you playing against, Syl

Its me. :

33.3 W Hamed to Fincher
Fincher doesn't even stop to see the umpire's finger go up. He'll be kicking himself that he got a nick on that one.

It's too late but still, it all counts! RRR of just 3 is never going to be enough!

Never say late with your team. I need to finish this before Love comes back on, I can see him ripping my tail apart.
Nice knock from Fincher shame he couldn't go on to make a 100.

End of Over 35: 171-4, runrate=4.89, reqrunrate=2.60 (209-10)
Walton 8-0-46-0
Sawyer* 35 (41 balls)
Germon 6 (7 balls)
Last Wicket: Fincher c. Bishop b. Hamed 72 (FOW: 160/4)

All over now

35.5 W Hamed to Sawyer
Edged off the toe of the bat and it's Christmas come early for Bishop.

 

[Griffo]

End of Over 21: 60-7, runrate=2.86
Harvey 4-1-3-1
Mawer* 0 (1 balls)
Allan 4 (18 balls)

Last Wicket: Harkin Run Out 0 (FOW: 59/7)

Harvey doesnt like green pitches...

 

[surendar]

Love comes back on, I can see him ripping my tail apart.

It's still not over, Syl.. Your team do have smashing records against Love. But I feel, when he comes, it will be too late for HT. Already just 30 runs to get.. So I can see you still in driver's seat.

As I said, atleast 230 should have been a great contest. Those five wickets for 0 runs in the end made everything upside down for HT.

 

[aussie1st]

Our last game I was in the same position so definitely not confident.
Got no faith in Stubbs.

End of Over 38: 184-5, runrate=4.84, reqrunrate=2.17 (209-10)
Hamed 9-0-51-3
Germon* 11 (12 balls)
Stubbs 4 (10 balls)
Last Wicket: Sawyer c. Bishop b. Hamed 38 (FOW: 175/5)

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

End of Over 28: 153-3, runrate=5.46
Khuliso 4-0-20-0
Mcgoldrick* 44 (36 balls)
Bignot 67 (96 balls)

Last Wicket: Flower Run Out 10 (FOW: 66/3)

Once again Bignot tooking all the responsibilities on his shoulders : Don't know when will others perform

 

[surendar]

Well done Syl Your team deserve this victory as your players played their responsible roles when needed and not like my team's skipper and Malik and Bishop. They deserve this lesson, tbh.

Congrads on the win.. And it adds, BB (3)-(1) HT in records now. Hope to play you soon. Good match overall.

 

[Griffo]

End of Over 32: 72-10, runrate=2.25
Brennan 3-1-4-2
Mawer* 9 (35 balls)

Hopefully I lose an early wicket and Wotton gets his stats up

Harvey 9-5-5-2

What a spell from a Destructive spinner

 

[aussie1st]

Thanks Suren Great match as usual, never sure of a win until that final run or wicket is done.
Fincher has won the battle for Masi spot, I now wonder what would have happened with those two opening like originally planned.

Baggy Blues HuntingTigers
Top Order: proficient competent
Middle Order: respectable competent
Lower Order: worthless abysmal
Seam Bowling: respectable respectable
Spin Bowling: respectable respectable
Fielding: woeful feeble
MOTM: Fincher

My team has become a lot more all round now. Well deserved MOTM for Fincher, without him I'm sure I would have lost.

 

[Griffo]

Wow my top order is equal to yours syl... and better than suren! Would love to see Suren v Handsome

 

[aussie1st]

Would be strong at full strength The middle order would weaken.
Infact if our 20/20 is working properly I'll be able to see that side in action.

Bignot 83 (122 balls)

Last Wicket: Flower Run Out 10 (FOW: 66/3)

An excellent bounce back :happy previosuly i was looking a target fo 250 + but now its likely to be 280-90

Yes, your team looks massive. Especially when we played last time, you had problems in bowling department. But nice to see that you had fought with your players in fixing them up

Also, Chav and Masi are yet to get their success against HT though. Steele and Liddle are still considered by HT as more threatening players of BB. Unfortunately, you don't have them now.

Would love to see Suren v Handsome

All I can say, HT is under repair phase. I made a mess in training the players before. Lately.. that too only last season I realized my crap training schedule.

I am also looking forward to play you, Handsome, WC and Gamer's teams.

An excellent bounce back :happy previosuly i was looking a target fo 250 + but now its likely to be 280-90

When did you loose the momentum to bounce back? Always you go into negative attitude even in positive moment. Right from the start, your scoring rate looked great and you were in control.
