In the words of James May. Cock. It is hard and fast although I did just look at his bowlers. If I get over 250 I'll be shocked:

End of Over 50: 330-3, runrate=6.60

Pretorius 10-0-60-2

Southall* 7 (7 balls)
Davidson 42 (34 balls)

Last Wicket: Krapohl c. Tailor b. Pretorius 146 (FOW: 315/3)

3.5 W Ridley to Dodd
Ridley pitches one right up in the blockhole and strikes Dodd on the boot. There's a sustained appeal from the bowler and finally the umpire raises his finger. Ridley's got his man!
3.4 W Ridley to Hassell
Hassell comes down the track and has a swing at Ridley. He misses and the ball goes through to Rutherford. He takes off the bails but has Hassell got back in his crease? The man in the middle goes to the 3rd umpire... OUT, the bat just on the line!

Joy.

Just found out i got 69k for this match. Not bad for a Cup game, I guess.

[Jaztheman]

Unbeaten double century from McCree, Tom.

Raisani is batting quite fast for me now, 11* off 9 balls after bing only a few runs off a few balls. This is one strange match.

 

[Highlander999]

You cursed me Jaz. I'm blaming this on you

Love you too, Tom.

Well done, Innes. And I do, its just PFL issues.

Hyron 4-0-17-1
Hodge* 0 (1 balls)
Crowther 32 (41 balls)
Last Wicket: Raisani c & b. Hyron 21 (FOW: 79/4)

Doing much better than I thought we'd do and Crowther is impressing me.

 

[Highlander999]

Bowled out for 60 odd runs. Not surprised when I looked at the reporters summary

 

[Jaztheman]

Your top order should of done better to be honest, did they have a big beast or something?

38.3 W Resha to Hodgson
That's a spectacular catch, Nico was three feet in the air! That was six runs had he not pulled that off.

End of Over 39: 178-6, runrate=4.56
Resha 10-1-47-1
Hodge* 39 (50 balls)
Macey 5 (2 balls)
Last Wicket: Hodgson c. Nico b. Resha 40 (FOW: 172/6)

Lost a wicket but we can still make around 250+, got some good batsmen still to come in aswell. Doing much better than I thought and I want to win this now.

 

[Highlander999]

Hey nice total jaz, you might have a chance if you had played some bowlers

Yeah, he had a beast of a bowler which just ran through the top 3, after that there was never going to be any chance for me

 

[Jaztheman]

Thought so, nothing you could really do then, I guess.

I'm playing three bowlers! What more do you want? I think our chances of winning are going down the pan however as we just scored two runs off an over...

End of Over 40: 180-6, runrate=4.50
Hyron 10-0-39-1
Hodge* 40 (54 balls)
Macey 5 (5 balls)

40.1 6 Mulryne to Hodge
Shot, straight into the stands. Six runs to the total!

More please.

 

[innes]

Well done Jaz, lets hope now 'ey

Finally their innings has finished, and I don't think I will get above 100 in all honest.

hyson green outlaws
Top Order: quality
Middle Order: competent
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: wonderful
Spin Bowling: quality
Fielding: feeble

That was his last summary

Glad I took 6 wickets though
