Ouch looks like I got a number of dud batters. Was thinking of getting Hall and in hindsight I should have.

 

[Howsie]

Good work Phillip Hughes, I made him my Trump player. Liam Plunkett also did very well.

Congrats Kev, 31st overall. My 2nd team would be 2nd in the PC comp, up to 1977 points.
My 1st team is having a shocker though.

 

[Kev]

Bloody amazed at my luck so far. Now upto 21st overall (Although I must point out, my second team is down in the 3000's somewhere )

Only Darren Stevens didn't do anything for me, bloody typical. Only just transfered him in and he's now out injured.

Quite a while for the next round of games, I think I'll wait until nearer the deadline before updating my team.

(For those who are interested and cba to checkout the cricinfo page, there's a new leaderboard in post 1).

 

[Kev]

I just realised I could have been 1st

When I added Darren Stevens to my squad I originally added James Tredwell, but had a change of mind at the last moment!!!

 

[Kev]

Just a reminder, that after quite a long break, the next round of matches is just under a week away (Matches start 6th June)

 

[Kev]

All the teams apart from Worcestershire and Northamptonshire are playing in the next round, starting tomorrow. Don't forget players away for T20 duties too

Just the 1 change for me for this round.

 

[aussie1st]

Good thing you reminded me, that gap was far too long totally lost interest.

 

[Kev]

Yeah, it's pretty rough being a Championship fan this year. Big gap to fit in the Friends Provident Trophy and most of the T20 cup before the T20 world championships. But the season should flow better from now on.

 

[aussie1st]

Dam Onions is back, would have got him if I knew he would be picked but completely forgot about him.

 

[Ari]

I made about 7 changes so far the new guys have been doing there job.

Also is Plunkett injured?

 

[Kev]

Not much action yesterday in the games, with so much rain around. Hoping for a better day today. Up to 13th overall

Don't know about Plunkett tbh.

 

[Ari]

Typical I drop Marshall and he goes and gets 150.

 

[Kev]

Suddenly I seem to have a team that I am not so happy with, gotta watch these ad-hoc transfers. Slipping down the leaderboard now, was briefly upto 7th overall, but out of top 10 now.

MvJ as my trump player is really gonna hurt me in this round. He's only just walking into bat in the first innings at 5pm on day4, no chance of a big ton to boost my score this week!

 

[Ari]

From around 3000th i've jumped up to 172nd. Transfers are going to be an issue I recruited some cheap Internationals such as Cook and Onions for this round.
