Jack Fingleton and Bill Brown posted the biggest opening partnership in Olympic history by adding an astonishing 248 runs for the 1st wicket, as Australia became the first team to bat through the entire length of 50 overs without losing a single wicket during their innings; both Fingleton and Brown finishing with exactly 118 apiece. Don Bradman, who was just 65 runs shy of becoming the first batsman to score 1000 runs in an Olympic career, wasn't required to bat for the first time in his Olympic career. The wait was to continue for now.

George Headley's stay at the crease though punishing, was far too short for West Indies' liking. A target of 249 proved far too much for the rest of their lineup, who only managed to bat out 50 overs for a scratchy 197/9 as Australia recorded a convincing 51-run victory to book themselves a place in the final. Meanwhile, the 45-year old Clarrie Grimmett became Australia's all-time leading wicket-taker in the Olympics, going past the legendary Monty Noble's record of 27 wickets at 18.04 from 15 matches between 1900 and 1908. His record for Australia currently read 29 wickets at 18.17 from 19 matches between 1912 and 1936, and 32 wickets at 17.56 from 20 matches overall when taking into account his sole appearance for his birth country New Zealand in 1920. This made him only the third player after Bart King and Herbert Dorning to claim more than 30 wickets in a career in the Olympics.

Despite an impressive start at the top from Charlie Barnett and Harold Gimblett, Great Britain posted an underwhelming 185 off their 50 overs. They struggled quite badly against the medium pace of Eric Dalton and Xen Balaskas' leg breaks, with no batsman in their lineup making it past 50. South Africa's Dudley Nourse managed to get himself into the record books as the first non wicket-keeper to claim as many as five catches in an innings.

They made it with just 21 balls to spare

Hedley Verity remained unplayable as ever, but South Africa's measured approach against him worked quite well as they managed to keep him restricted to just 1 wicket during his 10-over spell which saw him concede only 19 runs. The South Africans took the attack to the rest of the British bowlers, with Alan Melville recording a maiden Olympic century after being shunned down to No 5 following a run of poor scores at No 3. Eric Dalton, already proving himself to be one of the tournament's most valuable players scored an unbeaten 35 to see South Africa through to their first ever Olympic final - thereby ensuring them a Silver medal for cricket at the very least and going one better than their Bronze-winning effort in 1908. It also marked the first instance of them beating the mother country in three encounters since 1924. Great Britain were left to battle it out for Bronze with the West Indies.

Wow. What the hell just happened there? We beat Great Britain, and quite comfortably in the end, I might add. Australia, be scared, be very, very scared.
 
Well, I didn't post the lineup, I forgot. :P

We bowled really well and that helped us to win this comfortably. Finals against Australia, let's win this.

- Pitch: Dry/Slow
- Players injured/unavailable: None
- Player quality determination: :purpo: > :goldo:/:redo: > :slvo: > :bro: > :blueo:
- Outcome: Winner wins a Bronze medal for cricket. Loser finishes 4th on the overall standings.
- Stats and trivia: *Wally Hammond (552 runs at 69.00) is currently only 48 runs short of becoming the fifth batsman to score more than 600 runs in a career after Clem Hill, Victor Trumper, Jack Hobbs and Don Bradman. George Headley (556 runs at 50.55) needs only 44 runs to do the same.
*Hedley Verity (22 wickets at 10.36) is one short of equalling Bill Lockwood and Wilfred Rhodes' tally of 23 wickets, and three short of Sydney Barnes 25 wickets, which is the most for any bowler from Great Britain in the Olympics. His career bowling average of 10.36 is currently the lowest for any bowler to have claimed 15 wickets or more in an Olympic career, and season bowling average of 6.78 the third lowest after Bart King's 6.45 in 1912 and Wilfred Rhodes' 6.54 in 1908.
*Verity's career and season economy rates of 2.55 and 1.79 are by far the cheapest for any bowler in the history of the Olympic Games.

- Player quality determination: :purpo: > :goldo:/:redo: > :slvo: > :bro: > :blueo:
- Outcome: Winner wins a Gold medal for cricket. Loser obtains a Silver medal.
- Stats and trivia:
*Don Bradman (935 runs at 103.89) is just 65 runs shy of becoming the first player to bring up 1000 runs in the Olympics. He is the only player with more than 150 career runs to possess an average of above 100.
*Clarrie Grimmett, the only surviving player to have made his debut the period before the Great War referred to as cricket's 'Golden Age' is set to make his final appearance in the Olympics. He currently sits on 32 wickets at 17.56 from 20 matches between 1912 and 1936. To date, he remains the only player to have appeared for three different Olympic teams - Australasia in 1912, New Zealand in 1920 and Australia since 1924.
*Buster Nupen (17 wickets at 15.35), who is yet to be capped in this edition of the Olympic Games is only 2 short of Bert Vogler's tally of 19 wickets, the most by a South African bowler in the Olympics.

Lineup rules

1) A proper wicket-keeper (:wk:/:wkb:) in your XI.
2) A minimum of 6 players marked to bowl.
3) Players ruled out due to injury cannot be selected.
4) Lineup restrictions/quotas as mentioned in the match details must be followed.
5) I don't usually wait more than 72 hours for lineups in this league, regardless of who the manager is. So you better get a move on before that.
6) Those who don't post their lineups for three consecutive rounds without giving prior notice of their unavailability will be removed from their managerial positions.

Player rarities

In each squad, players have been marked with these icons to give you a fair idea of their playing skills and overall usefulness to your team.

:purpo: - Legend. Used for the players that are undoubtedly the best of the lot.
:goldo: - Gold. Used for players with a high level of consistency and ability to deliver during key moments.
:redo: - Ruby. Used for players that are extremely talented and can play in a way no one else can replicate.
:slvo: - Silver. Used for players that aren't as talented as their Gold/Ruby/Legend contemporaries, but still capable of holding their own against the best in business.
:bro: - Bronze. Used for players that are a level below Silver. They are more likely to put in good performances than players from the Sapphire/Crystal category.
:blueo: - Sapphire/Crystal. Used for players that are inexperienced or with a lower skill set compared to those from a higher category. They could either put in good performances or fail miserably.

Explanation on pitch types

Damp/Sticky - Massively in favor of bowlers and an absolute nightmare to bat on, unless you're Victor Trumper.
Evenly balanced - Provides an evenly balanced contest for all disciplines.
Green - A lot of movement on offer, which makes it ideal for bowlers capable of swinging the ball. Quite regular to find in most European countries.
Hard - Ideal conditions for batting. Good deal of bounce on offer for fast bowlers as well. Could go either way.
Dry/Slow - Ideal for slow and spin bowlers as the name suggests. Sometimes quite difficult to bat on.

George Headley added 121 runs for the 4th wicket alongside Clarence Passailaigue, his close friend and team-mate from Jamaica. The two batsmen posted half-centuries to help West Indies recover from a terrible start at 11/3 and were the only ones to make it past double figures in their team's lineup; Headley finishing unbeaten on 88 off 128 balls against a bowling attack consisting of the irresistible Hedley Verity among others and Passailaigue scoring a very respectable 66 off 92 balls before being adjudged lbw to Bill Voce. In the process, Headley became only the fifth batsman following Clem Hill, Victor Trumper, Jack Hobbs and Don Bradman to bring up 600 runs in a career, finishing the 1936 Games with a record of 644 runs at 58.55 from 13 matches between 1928 and 1936. The West Indians finished with a decent 198 off their 50 overs.

Great Britain took on a far more cautious approach than their West Indian counterparts on the treacherous Olympiastadion wicket and appeared likely to bring up a comfortable victory with Joe Hardstaff jnr and Les Ames looking very assured at the crease. Then came Ames' dismissal off Hines Johnson for a well played 46, and Hardstaff jnr soon followed in the final over for 51 where 7 runs were needed for a British victory. Hedley Verity, coming in at No 8 threw his bat at everything but his partner Walter Robins was kept in check by Rolph Grant who kept the batsmen scoreless off the final two balls of the match to help the West Indians clinch a thriller by only 5 runs. The West Indies finished with a Bronze medal for cricket at the 1936 Olympic Games, their first medal since winning a Silver medal more than a decade previously at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris. Meanwhile, Great Britain were made to endure their first ever medalless campaign for cricket in 40 years of the Olympics.

His batting record as of this innings was an absolutely ridiculous 1000 runs at an average of 111.11 (including 5 centuries and 3 half-centuries) from 14 matches between 1928 and 1936.

After an innings of nothing but sheer torment, Balaskas finally removed Bradman. He walked off to a standing ovation having scored 110 off 112 balls, making him the first player to score a century in two Olympic finals.

Buster Nupen, playing what may very well be his last Olympic match equalled the legendary googly bowler Bert Vogler's tally of 19 wickets in the Olympics - the most by a South African bowler. He finished with a wicket-maiden, dismissing the dangerous Bert Oldfield who's always good for a few quick runs at the closing stages of an innings.

And there it was! Donald George Bradman had now become the first player in history to bring up 1000 career runs in the Olympics. A marvelous achievement by a marvelous cricketer.

His batting record as of this innings was an absolutely ridiculous 1000 runs at an average of 111.11 (including 5 centuries and 3 half-centuries) from 14 matches between 1928 and 1936.

Australia went into the final ten overs of their innings with Bradman brutalizing Xen Balaskas with an 18-run over to bring up his sixth century in Olympic cricket. No other player had more than two.

After an innings of nothing but sheer torment, Balaskas finally removed Bradman. He walked off to a standing ovation having scored 110 off 112 balls, making him the first player to score a century in two Olympic finals. In their bid for quick runs, Australia had already lost more than half their side.

Buster Nupen, playing what may very well be his last Olympic match equalled the legendary googly bowler Bert Vogler's tally of 19 wickets in the Olympics - the most by a South African bowler. He finished with a wicket-maiden, dismissing the dangerous Bert Oldfield who's always good for a few quick runs at the closing stages of an innings.

Australia finished with a very intimidating total of 238. It will be a daunting ask for the South Africans, as no team has yet chased more than 205 successfully at the Olympiastadion.

Clarrie Grimmett, playing his final Olympic match for his adopted country waved around a bit of magic by dismissing Dudley Nourse, South Africa's leading run-scorer of the 1936 Games for just 10. He followed it up by claiming Ken Viljoen just three balls later. Two of South Africa's strongest links in the middle order were gone in the space of one over.

Eric Dalton breathed some new life into the South African innings by taking on Chuck Fleetwood-Smith's left-arm unorthodox leg breaks and scoring at well over a run-a-ball. But it was the latter who had the last laugh when he had him stumped by the ever reliable Bert Oldfield whilst trying to further dent his already lacklustre bowling figures for the match.

O'Reilly finally had a wicket in the last over of his spell, which read a very impressive 10-3-17-1. There was little doubt as to how valuable his performance was to the Australian cause despite him picking only one wicket during the innings. The amount of pressure he put on the South Africans by conceding zero runs off his first four overs was quite telling, as they never truly recovered from it.

South Africa finished their innings on 184/9, more than 50 runs short of Australia's total. Nevertheless, they could take pride in the fact that they finally managed to win a Silver medal for cricket after 32 years of participating in the Olympics and completed what was unquestionably their most successful campaign till date.

Australia returned to their Gold-winning ways after the abberation that was the 1932 Olympic Games in Los Angeles where the only thing that prevented them from winning a Gold medal was arguably the bodyline tactics of the former Great Britain skipper Douglas Jardine. But none of that prevailed here in Berlin, and they ended up winning all five of their matches to claim their sixth Gold medal for cricket in ten editions of the Olympics under the captaincy of the incomparable Don Bradman. They managed it all despite rumors of tensions between certain members of the squad with their talismanic skipper, who despite being Australia's favorite son was perhaps not as well liked by some of his charges.

South Africa completed their most successful Olympic campaign till date by winning a Silver medal for the sport; the only thing preventing them from going one step further being arguably one of the strongest teams one can ever hope to come up against, and containing the world's greatest cricketer. In fact, Australia were the only team to actually beat them during the 1936 tournament where they recorded victories over fellow Test nations New Zealand, India and even registered a historic maiden victory over Great Britain in the semi-final. It was their first medal-winning effort of any kind since winning a Bronze medal for cricket 28 years previously in 1908.

The brilliance of one player i.e George Headley was enough to win the West Indies a Bronze medal for cricket ahead of Great Britain, who endured their first ever medal-less campaign for the sport in 40 years of the Olympics. It was their first medal for cricket since winning Silver at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris, and a moral victory for a team consisting mostly of black players in a country that has been taken over by a racist power-hungry psychopath in Adolf Hitler, whose government openly encourages racism across all spheres of life including sports. Nothing was perhaps quite as pleasing as seeing Headley score a century against a fairly potent German bowling attack at the Olympiastadion in the presence of several high ranking Nazi officials and thereby undermining their notions of "Aryan supremacy".

Bradman as usual topped the batting averages of yet another Olympic tournament with 231 runs at 77.00 with 2 centuries, despite not looking his best at times after being handed the additional responsibility of captaincy. But the batsman whom the 1936 Games really belonged to was George Headley, the Panama-born Jamaican right-hander who outscored Bradman himself to finish the tournament with an awe-inspiring 305 runs at an average of 76.25 from 5 matches. His century against Germany at the Olympiastadion was most pleasing, but it was his unbeaten 88 against Great Britain in the Bronze playoff that really consolidated his status as one of the world's best batsmen. He had nowhere near the same kind of support in a faltering West Indies batting lineup as Bradman had in an Australian lineup containing the likes of Fingleton, Brown, McCabe, Chipperfield and Darling among others. And yet he almost single-handedly carried his team on the back of his runs to claim a Bronze medal, earning him the nickname "Atlas" after the Greek Titan with the unenviable task of carrying the sky on his shoulders for eternity. Often called the "Black Bradman" across cricketing circles for his penchant for excessive run-scoring, this was one tournament where one could perhaps call Bradman the "White Headley" instead as they do in his native Jamaica.

Headley's efforts with the bat weren't enough to win him Player of the Tournament. That honor was bestowed upon Hedley Verity, the left-arm tweaker from Yorkshire who claimed an awe-inspiring 10 wickets at 8.90 from 5 matches for Great Britain, all while conceding his runs at a record low 2.02 runs an over - the cheapest ever recorded in the Olympics for a player bowling a minimum of 15 overs, beating Warwick Armstrong's 2.04 at the 1920 Games in Antwerp. His bowling average of 8.90 was the fourth lowest ever recorded in an Olympic tournament after Bart King's 6.45 in 1912, Wilfred Rhodes' 6.54 in 1908 and Herbert Wookey's 7.31 in 1920. There was no question that he was among the most deserving players to win the prestigious award handed out at the conclusion of every Olympics.

Three notable players called it a day at the end of the 1936 Olympics - Bert Oldfield and Clarrie Grimmett of Australia, and Buster Nupen of South Africa.

Bert Oldfield finished a 16-year career with the highest number of dismissals by a wicket-keeper in the Olympics with 22 dismissals (20ct 2st) from 20 matches between 1920 and 1936. Brought in as a last minute injury replacement for the then incumbent Sammy Carter against Great Britain in the final of the 1920 Games in Antwerp, he affected a brilliant stumping to remove their leading batsman Jack Hobbs to turn the match in Australia's favor and never looked back from there. He went on to establish himself as the most prolific wicket-keeper in Olympic cricket, overtaking American gloveman Charles Winter's record of 16 dismissals in 1932. His batting though seldom required in a very prolific era for Australian batsmanship was useful at times, as shown by 159 runs at an average of 39.75 (with 6 not outs) with one half-century from 10 innings coming at a very good strike-rate of 76.44 runs per 100 balls.

Clarrie Grimmett finished with 34 wickets at an average of 17.38 from 21 matches in a 24-year career between 1912 and 1936 - the most by a spin bowler in the Olympics, the most by an Australian, and the third highest number of wickets overall behind only Herbert Dorning and Bart King. He also held the rare distinction of representing as many as three teams in the Olympics - making his debut as a leg spin prodigy from Wellington for an Australasia lineup containing some of Australia's greatest names in Olympic cricket such as Victor Trumper, Clem Hill, Warwick Armstrong and Tibby Cotter in the 1912 Olympics with a successful return of 3 for 26 from 10 overs. Eight years later in 1920, when Australasia ceased to exist causing Australia and New Zealand to go their separate ways, he represented his birth country New Zealand for just one match, claiming 3 for 35 from 9 overs against the West Indies. But with them still being nearly a decade away from Test status at the time, he emigrated to Australia to give himself the best chance of playing at the highest level of the game and went on to represent them at the Olympics from 1924 to 1936, claiming a record 31 wickets at 17.94 during a 12-year period to emerge as their all-time leading wicket-taker going past Monty Noble's record of 27 wickets. He also bowled a record 20 maiden overs throughout his career; the next best being only 9 by Sydney Barnes. His will undoubtedly be one of the toughest acts to follow as put into perspective by former team-mate Vic Richardson who claimed "We could have played any team without Don Bradman, but we could not play the blind school without Clarrie Grimmett."

Buster Nupen ended his career as the joint highest wicket-taker for South Africa on the Olympics tied with Bert Vogler at 19 wickets, though with a slightly inferior average of 16.16 compared to Vogler's 13.11 from 11 matches between 1924 and 1936. Though his best years seemed behind him in the 1936 Games where he played only one match claiming 2 for 46 against Australia in the final, he finally got to be a part of a medal-winning squad in his fourth and final Olympic campaign.


The medal allocations for cricket at the 1936 Olympic Games were as follows :-

Man, those are some crazy write-ups. Take a bow! :clap

I think we did well for a team of our calibre against a multiple time Olympic Gold Medalist nation, and we will take pride in that. We'll take pride in the fact that we managed to achieve a Silver Olympic Medal for South Africa, which as you pointed out, makes this their most successful campaign, yet. I'd like to thank you for this wonderful season which was a great pleasure to be a part of.

And, I'd like to thank my co-manager, @Sodium for doing almost all the heavy-lifting for this team as I payed more attention to the German side, than South Africa. :)
