Do we have what it takes??

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iloveireland decided that the tema had a 50/50 chance of winning this match.

The opening pair decided to go agressively and got to 46 in only 5 overs.

In the 8th over Holdenator was run out by a great throw by a Northamptonshire player. This was a bad blow as he was batting really well and run out is the worst way to go out. Bad call from FB.

The score was 1/93 after 10 overs and we were on top. They both stayed agressive though.

Next over Mathers was out to a fluke catch. FB was still on 47

Things kept going and FB got his 50 with a boundary.

At the 20 over mark we were at 2/151 needing 4.5 runs an over to win.

FB was still dominating and got his 100 with a risky run.

After 30 we were 2/195. PakCricketer was batting too slowly so he was told to go more agressive. Iloveireland was estatic. It couldnt have been better

In the 33rd over PakCricketer got to his 50 with a single. It was a great consilidation innings and Iloveireland hoped he's survive until the end because Derbyshire only needed 64 runs to win.

FeelingBlue got to his 150 quickly. Needing only 117 balls.

Feelingblue? won us the match with a great four in the 45th over

[iloveireland]

I will update soon guys, my bros birthday so I cant post update (takes ages )

 

[iloveireland]

Com lagged again so I cant give you my pre- match thingy so I will go straight to the match, sorry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------Not much happened in the first ten overs so Iloveireland brought Domiw and Hopawhitey into the attack to replace IBMB and PakCricketer.

Hopawhitey got the wicket of J Francis for 19 with a great ball that got him LBW. It was plumb. That amde the score at 1/30 which was a pretty good start.

After both bowlers had reached 5 overs Iloveireland brought Jaz and Zorax into the attack. Both didnt do well and the score had got to 1/110 and things were getting out of hand so Iloveireland brought Hopawhitey and Pakcricketer back into the attack.

It was a great move because PakCricketer got a wicket with his first ball back. It was Edwards who had recently got to 50. It was onther LBW.



At lunch the score was 2/165 with Blackwell on 61*.

Iloveireland was fairly happy with this result but he needed wickets quick in the next session. He didn't want them to get more than 350. 300 was the score he was aiming to keep them too.

 

[freddiw]

[iloveireland]

Good works mate, Am i in the team?

Yes you are. Your opening the batting.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2nd over of the next session Iloveireland brought IBMB and PakCricketer back into the attack. After 5 overs of getting smashed Iloveireland brought Domiw and Jaz into the attack desperate for a wicket.

Iloveirelands prayers were answered with Jaz getting the wicket of Blackwell. It was another LBW. He went out for 106 and the score was 3/247.

AFter that Iloveireland took Domiw out of the attack and brought Zorax in to help Jaz. Zorax (As usual) delivered with the batsman edging a catch to his partner in crime Jaz.

Hopawhitey was edging for a go so Iloveireland brought him into the attack to bowl with Zorax.

Zorax struck again with the new batsman (who is their keeper) top edged a ball to Hopawhitey. This was Zorax's 2nd and he was on fire!!

Iloveireland decided to go defensive against Adnan because he was really set but they went full agression against Laraman.

Hopawhitey got his second cleaning up Laraman. Clean bowled. Great ball and a major breakthrough.

Zorax clean bowled the part time keeper Durston with another great ball to get his 3rd. It was great because they were up to the last all rounder before the tail.

The next of Zorax's overs he got another wicket. He clean bowled Trego. This meant we were up to the tail and he had 4 wickets.

Zorax was really hoping for a 5ver to go with his 1st double hundred this season.

At the end of the session the score was 8/312 and Iloveireland was pretty happy. They had come back well. Great work especially from Zorax and Hopawhitey. Iloveireland wanted the last two wickets real quick. He also wanted Zorax to get a 5ver.

Next session Iloveireland brought Domiw in to bowl with Zorax because Hopawhitey looked tired. Iloveireland wanted to get them out for less than 350.

Domiw got the wicket of Johnson with another catch from Jaz. He was on fire in the field.

Zorax tired himself out for Iloveireland gave hopawhitey the ball. But it didnt matter because Domiw cleaned up Willoughby.

That meant they were all out for 361. A few more than Iloveireland wanted but still reasonable.
