Well I'm second but first might try and screw me over so I'm keeping my future in my hands as you can see (I'm bowling)

Josefa 8-0-68-0
Mccarthy* 33 (23 balls)
Crawford 52 (42 balls)

Will remain second though, they still have a game on me

 

[aussie1st]

Ah crap I don't know if I won or lost.

 

[iloveireland]

Another lag, I am 99% sure I won but I still wanna see the score

 

[voldemort]

I lost to a bot... TIE and crap team, his remarkable bowler took 6/13 even on worthless form

 

[angryangy]

form is ******** imo.

that word is censored? lol
can I say balls?

 

[aussie1st]

Lol just had a massive BT collapse.

49.6 W Raphael to Clayden
Attempted flick off his legs, but makes no contact and it cannons into leg stump!
49.5 W Raphael to Mohammed
Advanced, picked up straight to Abdul kadir at mid on for an easy catch.
49.4 W Raphael to Sam
Fortune threw it into Mann and he had the bails off before you can say 'third umpire'. That's an important wicket for Raphael and his team.
49.3 W Raphael to Quintus
Raphael shouts like a kid on Christmas morning, and the umpire's given him out LBW!
49.2 W Raphael to Chavhanga
Mann's decision to stand up to Raphael has paid off. Chavhanga loses his balance and his wicket. Stumped.

End of Over 50: 315-8, runrate=6.30
Raphael 10-0-54-6
Germon* 15 (13 balls)
Mampe 0 (0 balls)
Last Wicket: Clayden b. Raphael 0 (FOW: 315/8)

Lol Nice Syl

End of Over 50: 260-5, runrate=5.20
Mbeki 10-1-62-1
Sayce* 10 (8 balls)
Pearse 64 (98 balls)

Last Wicket: Byron lbw b. Mbeki 90 (FOW: 241/5)

Decent effort with the ball, as usual my two bad bowlers gave away alot of runs

Perfect batting conditions, I have attacking players opening the batting followed by Wotton, I think ive got a good chance

 

[aussie1st]

Should be another ripper finish between you two.

Mampe in the wickets early again

3.2 W Mampe to Udabadalawa
That was vicious! The ball spat up off the pitch towards Udabadalawa's throat, who could barely fend it away let alone play a decent shot, and it looped straight to Germon at backward point.

3.6 W Mampe to Abdul kadir
Ray is under it; it's going to be difficult but he's positioned himself well... and he takes a glorious catch just inside the ropes! Abdul kadir shakes his head in sheer disbelief as he trudges back to the pavilion.

End of Over 4: 19-2, runrate=4.75, reqrunrate=6.46 (315-8)
Mampe 2-0-9-2
Mann* 12 (8 balls)
Fortune 0 (0 balls)
Last Wicket: Abdul kadir c. Ray b. Mampe 0 (FOW: 19/2)

 

[Griffo]

I hope its the same result!

End of Over 7: 38-1, runrate=5.43, reqrunrate=5.19 (260-5)
Bradshaw 4-0-22-1
Stanley* 15 (21 balls)
Wotton 15 (7 balls)

Last Wicket: Nicholls c. Dunn b. Bradshaw 7 (FOW: 20/1)

Nicholls failed up the order as a pinch hitter but no matter, Stanley is up top after his old owner advised me to put him up there, just waiting for Hadland to come in he will change the game

 

[aussie1st]

Must say it's a risky move by LH to bring Hadland in so late. Game could be over when he gets in.

No Sawyer today so Clayden will need to pick up his wickets.

End of Over 9: 34-2, runrate=3.78, reqrunrate=6.88 (315-8)
Borrowdale 5-0-19-0
Mann* 22 (26 balls)
Fortune 5 (12 balls)
Last Wicket: Abdul kadir c. Ray b. Mampe 0 (FOW: 19/2)

 

[Griffo]

And that's the end of the match. Mental Blank won by 24 runs.
Mental Blank 260-5
The Southern Sharks 236-10

The move worked... my tail just couldnt hold up, has Wotton made a 50 victory would have been assured

 

[aussie1st]

Did leave it close though, I wonder how he would go opening and then finishing.

Clayden made up for Sawyer with a 4 fer to back up Mampe 3 fer. Bowled them all out for 145

 

[handsome]

End of Over 50: 266-8, runrate=5.32
Afroz 10-0-47-1
Apple* 125 (136 balls)
Halls 6 (5 balls)
Last Wicket: Farley c. Salahuddin b. Whitehouse 0 (FOW: 251/8)

Happy to keep him to 266 with 2 absolute crap bowlers.

Whitehouse 6/41

 

[angryangy]

Beaten by Bushwackers' infuriating squad of medium pace bowling all rounders, but I'm more confident about holding a spot in this division.
