Mine was easy enough, the guy turned bot at the daily update!

10.6 W Mampe to Tonderai
There is no sweeter sound in cricket than the sound of the bails clattering to the floor, so it's no wonder that Mampe is pleased. Bowled him!
10.5 W Mampe to Jamil
A very full and faster delivery, right on middle stump. The stump flew out the ground, as Jamil failed to connect after attempting the reverse sweep.
10.4 W Mampe to Seddon
A confusion of pads, bat and glove. The umpire raised the finger, and as Seddon traipsed off he asked 'Was that LBW or caught behind?', 'A bit of both' replied the umpire uneasily. We'll check the scorecard later.
10.3 W Mampe to Ul-rehman
Ul-rehman has gone hard at the sweep and there's a big top edge. The ball looked to be coming down safely but Porter has sprinted halfway to the boundary and taken a sprawling catch. Superb effort.

I was really happy with this, until he ran around with his shirt off singing 'Sex bomb'..... Such ludicrous Tom Jones loving will not be tolerated here!

You're my sex bomb Justin

I hate batting first, but looking pretty decent so far

Welcome to The Enclosure for the match between Livingston Lions and York Yappers.

We can tell you that York Yappers won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking slow and low. Tough for everyone. Could be a low scoring match on this partially cloudy and humid day.

Porter 12 (11 balls)
Last Wicket: Surmon c. Jamil b. Cock 13 (FOW: 19/2)

Reply isn't going well, Surmon hit a 6 and then went out. Down to Mampe AGAIN in a BT20 match

BFN Bombers Brandonians
Top Order: sensational masterful
Middle Order: exceptional strong
Lower Order: woeful mediocre
Seam Bowling: exquisite sensational
Spin Bowling: sensational exquisite
Fielding: proficient respectable
MOTM: Mampe

Was tight, Mampe failed with the bat, but we got there with 3 overs left and 6 wickets in hand. PFL isn't too shabby either so the OD game should be a win!

 

[Highlander999]

WTF. Went on to my fixtures page, and all I saw was pink. At closer inspection, apparently I tied my match today. Never had a tie before, I like the pink though, gives my fixtures page a more feminine touch Was totally saved by Manders though, who gave just 5 runs off the final over and 2 wickets

1.3 6 Maduwantha to Tilakaratna
What the devil has happened there? Tau has taken an amazing catch in the deep, thrown the ball up in celebration only to have it sail over the rope and be called six runs. Surely he had control before throwing it, but not according to the umpire


Wtf?

Anyway I made 165/8 . they're 12/0 in 2.

 

[Highlander999]

In my match vs Shev. Wee bit worried by that total. I was saved by Ingham and Stamp (Stamp is a med/comp bat :laugh) who managed to drag me towards this score. Will need my bowlers to perform well now:

Livingston Lions

Top Order: wonderful
Middle Order: superb
Lower Order: woeful
Seam Bowling: remarkable
Spin Bowling: sensational
Fielding: competent

Verizon Java Kings

Top Order: exceptional
Middle Order: superb
Lower Order: mediocre
Seam Bowling: quality
Spin Bowling: strong
Fielding: feeble

MOTM: Wotton

 

[Shevchenko]

oh yeah the RS does tell a different story, Lions should have won this match easily, but I did my homework and negated Manders and also limited the damage of the batters, think Wotton did a stellar job upfront and both Jakobus and Convery laid the foundation for the chase, always knew with the weather being sunny I'd have a better chance chasing down..all in all was a tense match but I'm proud I did tactically well, cause that's actually what saved me, on talent the Lions are far more better and perhaps deserved to have won !!

 

[Highlander999]

Yeah, I think I might have been a bit cocky and just been relying on Manders and Hollis and Abbott to do the job for me.
