Congrats on the win Angry, never going to be my day when Sawyer goes for that many. Pretty much confirmed what I need to train up next season.

 

[angryangy]

Yeah, I think lively on an all-rounder is much greater than a specialist. I'm fairly certain getting Hamed out would have cost you runs. Funny ratings though.

Also interesting how these last few games have played on slow pitches. For evenly matched opponents, you still see a fair bit of dependence on high-scoring batsmen. I guess that's a reality of slow pitches, where the batsmen are much harder to get out after a few overs.

 

[aussie1st]

Yea I was reading about what the different pitches did. A lot more importance placed on secondaries. On Sawyer he usually goes alright on lively just think against remarkable+ batters he struggles and just so happens your team is the first one this season.

Ive found that all rounders struggle with the bat when there is PFL problems, Mbeki hasnt hit anything in aloing time (His doesnt need to mostly)

End of Over 10: 33-1, runrate=3.30
Watson 5-0-19-1
Nicholls* 21 (34 balls)
Wotton 5 (2 balls)
Last Wicket: Kemp lbw b. Watson 6 (FOW: 27/1)

Not too bad for the conditions, Kemp couldnt hit a thing!

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

End of Over 20: 90-0, runrate=4.50, reqrunrate=4.60 (227-3)
Dixon 10-0-47-0
Kemp* 50 (60 balls)
Karthikeyan 39 (61 balls)

Good to see Kemp in form and Karty is still in his old defensive mood .

 

[Jaztheman]

End of Over 37: 185-1, runrate=5.00, reqrunrate=8.62 (296-3)
Gus 7-1-27-0
Hodgson* 92 (109 balls)
Watson 75 (95 balls)
Last Wicket: Wylie b. Whitehouse 10 (FOW: 33/1)

Done better than I expected to. Amodh should still win.

End of Over 50: 303-3, runrate=6.06
Chorley 10-0-64-0
Stanley* 8 (5 balls)
Wotton 139 (111 balls)

Last Wicket: Nicholls b. Keigher 64 (FOW: 287/3)

Wotton on fire, Stanley hits a four for his first ball faced as a Shark. In good bowling conditions im happy with 300

 

[WORLD CHAMPIONS]

Pure Carnage

46.6 1 Pearse to Flower
One run, Flower pats it to square leg for a quick single. Good running.
46.5 1 Pearse to Stifler
Strokes it into the leg side for a leisurely single.
46.4 4 Pearse to Stifler
A quicker ball with a touch of top spin. Stifler is lightning-quick on his feet and crashes it square for four.
46.3 1 Pearse to Flower
Neatly run away to third man.
46.2 4 Pearse to Flower
Short and wide. Got what it deserved, poor bowling.
46.1 4 Pearse to Flower
Tossed up outside off stump, Flower comes to the pitch of the ball and drives it well to the extra cover fence, excellent shot!

That one over made surity that we will win :happy One of my best match

And that's the end of the match. Raiders Eleven won by 6 wickets.
Mental Blank 227-3
Raiders Eleven 228-4


End of Over 47: 228-4, runrate=4.85
Pearse 9-0-50-1
Flower* 64 (50 balls)
18 (12 balls)

Flower got his 2nd 50 in tnis tournament

 

[FreddieFan]

End of Over 13: 53-0, runrate=4.08
Heggett 7-0-22-0
Heath* 16 (28 balls)
Mason 36 (51 balls)

Solid start for me, if not quick. RR likely to pick up when a wicket falls.

 

[Griffo]

Is Ludham playin? If so wheres he batting

End of Over 12: 52-0, runrate=4.33, reqrunrate=6.63 (303-3)
Dayton 1-0-8-0
Cliffe* 15 (36 balls)
Harris 36 (36 balls)

My weak bowling attack could lose me this game

12.3 W Mbeki to Cliffe
A dive to the left with hand outstretched sees a superb catch from Dayton in the slips.

MMMMBEEEEKKIIII!!

Cant wait to use Mbeki next season when he is fit, he will destroy! But I need to get Harris he looks to be a key wicket

14.2 W Harvey to Rincon-hanna
The batsmen mistimes his shot and bottom edges onto the stumps. That was the equivalent of a gimmie to the fielding side.

HHHAAAARRRRVVEEEEYYYY!!!!

On a green pitch as well... I still NEED TO GET HARRIS!

 

[FreddieFan]

End of Over 23: 105-3, runrate=4.57
Stockley 5-0-29-0
Gilroy* 24 (24 balls)
Basson 16 (17 balls)

Last Wicket: Stiles c. Worsnop b. Ryan 3 (FOW: 72/3)

3 quick wickets from Ryan, but Gilroy and Basson have got things moving slightly. Ludlam is playing, and in next.

EDIT - Scratch that, Ludlam's in now.

23.1 W Chikosi to Gilroy
Absolute jaffa, bowled him all ends up. They'll need a technician out there as that stump camera is in several pieces.


Not impressed with this batting performance at all.
