[Highlander999]

I'm not sure, but you even said I was v/c for OD's but there was a bit of confusion as to what type of player I was, I think we agreed a bowler.

If I have been left out by accident it is no issue. Just carry on with the story

I swear I will try to fix this. You will play the next 3-4 games most likely.

My bad. Sorry.

 

[ZoraxDoom]

Hello and welcome to our next game here. It is between the struggling Worctershire and the inform Derbyshire. Obviously Derbyshire are favourites but you never know. The innexperience of the team may bring down their downfall. Iloveireland said in his press conference yesterday he'd be playing the team he thinks is their best and my word there is some real talent in there isnt their Ritchie.

Yes Tony their is. A few of their players are been thrown around for England Contracts next year. Some are said to be announced for next tour. Now I am not sure about it but I wouldnt be surprised. Players like Domiw who is a great bowler averaging 18.5 in FC level will be interesting. They also have the might Zorax. Do you think he could captain England??

Well he doesnt seem to have the right attitude at the moment. I am not sure he is ready. Next season. He may be selected but the way England are going at the moment I wouldnt want to play for them. Mathers Richie, hes an interesting prospect.

Yes he is. He was originally put down the order but Iloveireland has given him the sort after first drop spot. He is a great batsman with great technique and I love watching this young star play.

Now here is too interesting people, Holdenator and GrayNicholls. Both average of 100 after one game. I dont think we have seen enough to know just how good they are but I will tell you this. Its a good sign. I just hope they can knuckle down and keep playing the way they are atm. Many are saying Ritchie this is a more batting orientated side. What do you think??

Well it looks like they are but it is easier for a batsman to rise to this level then bowlers. I wouldnt be surprised if they improved a lot this season and into next season. If their bowlers get some form... they will a force to be reconned with. Thank you Tony.

Well Derbyshire have been undefeated this season havent they?

Yes they have Richie. Worcheshire though have won their last two Callenge Trophy games and are in good form. Price is averaging 6.5 for Worchershire this season. He is the best of a bad lot. They have a batsman averaging 50 but that seems to be it. Do you think they will get better??

Well you'd hope so. Their supporters wont be happy otherwise. The pitch today is great for batting but there is a good chance of rain today so you never know. It could make batting harder.

Well this pitch will benifit Derbyshire I think and I would pick bat first. If Derbyshire win I think they will pick bat but they have made some unusual calls this season.

Yeah they have. Its quite weird. Like last game on a perfect batting wicket they decided to bowl. That seems to be negetive tactics to me.

Now are gonna cross to Slats who is there with the captains and match referee for the toss of the coin.

Hey guys, great day today. I brought my rain jacket just incase we get that rain which we were told was coming.

(Coin Tossed).

Heads.

Heads it is. Bat or bowl??

Derbyshire will bat.

So you won the toss Iloveireland. Good to see you chose to bat.

Yeah it is a great wicket and the boys are eager to get a bat in their hands and try to win us the game. It is very important for us to see out the new ball today so I opened with some of my better openers in hope they can get us a good start.

Now Iloveireland, you've come under some stick all season with your decisions and coaching methods. Some say you have negetive tactics.

Well I play to win and I win. What else do you people want from me??

Well thank you for that interview.
It seems the Worcheshire captain is unavailiable for comment. Lets get this game on the road.

Not much happened in the first session. Holdenator got to 50. There were a lot of near outs in the session but they both just survived. It then started to rain. We lost 1 hour and 7 minutes of playing time.

In the next session Holdenator went nuts. He made batting look like walking down the road. He actually got to 100 before FB got to 50!! It was a couragous effort.

Next over though FeelingBlue? got his hard earned 50.

END OF SESSION:

Well we lost Holdenator for 130 or so runs. It was a gem of a delivery. It would trouble any batsman. He got a great clap of the ground.

Holdenators stats:

At the end of the day:

Work Guys!
