Lampard 36 (53 balls)

After scoring 300 I'm yet to make a breakthrough against a team worse than me, at the moment it so looks like I'm going to lose this match....

Just found out why, Lampard makes his top order exceptional as long as I get him out I'll skittle him over!

Had the groundsman pull out the hammer overnight and crack up the hard pitch.

I was worried about that top order, but in the end the weaker ones fell away and the key player was left stranded on a fairly meagre score. Still, a 10 wicket win was a shock as he did have a couple of good bowlers in there.
