End of Over 15: 104-6, runrate=6.93
Mulholland 4-0-19-1
Muir* 47 (31 balls)
Sotho 0 (3 balls)
Last Wicket: Dann c. William b. Mulholland 2 (FOW: 104/6)

Hodge, my wicketkeeper, made a good score in the twenties but Muir has taken me past 100. Didn't expect this when I was 31/4. This will be a decent score on this pitch.
 
Why are you getting demoted, Justin?

15.2 4 Blackstock to Muir
And he has smashed that very hard indeed, right out of the meat of the bat.
And that's his fifty! Well played.

Fantastic effort from Muir, almost didn't play this match.
 
Nissanka brought up his 50 with a 6 then was dismissed the next ball. Disappointed, now a new batsmen has to come in for the last 3 overs.
 
Good innings from Nissanka for you, Jake. Whats the score?

18.5 6 Phelan to Job
Oh my! That's out of here!
18.6 6 Phelan to Job
Up, up and away! Don't bother running for that one.

My bowler hit consecutive sixes off their opening bowler. :D Admittedly he is rather poor but my bowler is only feeb/comp batsman.

End of Over 19: 136-8, runrate=7.16
Phelan 4-1-34-2
Muir* 66 (42 balls)
Job 12 (4 balls)
Last Wicket: Burger c. William b. Phelan 1 (FOW: 124/8)

God knows how we've made this much.

19.1 6 Haasim to Muir
Big six clubbed into the crowd, no technique just brute strength there.

18 runs off the last 3 balls. :D
 
PFL is on short supply, I can only afford to concentrate fully on OD games, the rest require me to play a really really bad 2nd XI.

Fair 'nuf. Hopefully you can do well in OD.

End of Over 20: 145-10, runrate=7.25
Haasim 4-0-25-4
Muir* 75 (45 balls)

Last two balls of the innings were both wickets but what a legend Muir is.
 
Finally won a T20 toss, been a while.

End of Over 11: 83-2, runrate=7.55, reqrunrate=3.78 (116-10)
Bromby 2-0-20-0
Sawyer* 26 (30 balls)
Crouch 39 (25 balls)
Last Wicket: Chavhanga c. Mcclenahan b. Noorji 16 (FOW: 22/2)
 
Forgot to set my orders. Luckily it was against a bot! Made 197 and bowled them out for 128.

Was happy to see Raisani make 90, thinking Raisani and Nissanka as my openers in BT20.
 
3.4 W Pringle to Paul
Gotcha! A swing, a miss, and a long walk back to his team in the pavilion. Not one of his finest strokes...
3.3 W Pringle to Yarwood
Howzat? Out! Yarwood played down the wrong line and is hit plumb in front of the stumps.
3.2 W Pringle to Thornton
Movement from the pitch has seen Thornton bowled, that ball looked fairly innocuous at first.

Nicely does it :)
 
End of Over 1: 3-1, runrate=3.00, reqrunrate=7.95 (153-5)
Sotho 1-0-3-1
Makgale* 1 (2 balls)
Ryan 2 (2 balls)
Last Wicket: Barend c. Hodge b. Sotho 0 (FOW: 1/1)

Their third best batsman went for a duck and I'm in shock. If I can get Makgale, I have a good chance of winning this...
 
End of Over 10: 64-3, runrate=6.40, reqrunrate=9.00 (153-5)
Job 2-1-10-1
Makgale* 33 (26 balls)
Fallon 0 (4 balls)
Last Wicket: Jackman c. Burger b. Job 17 (FOW: 64/3)

Their best batsman has got out so hopefully it can be plain sailing, but Makgale is proving a nuisance. Wicket maiden by Job though.
