Elimination Final - The Demons v The Amigos

[VC the slogger]

Match venue

A-Field Stadium, Liverpool.

Pitch

A lot of movement on offer, which makes it ideal for pace and swing bowlers. Teams bowling first are likely to hold the advantage.

Lineup rules & guidelines

- No more than two star players per XI.
- A capable wicket-keeper (/) must feature in the XI.
- Try marking 6 bowlers in your XI, so a non-bowler doesn't come on and potentially cost you the match.
- The country flags on this forum look pretty. Try using them while posting your lineups if possible.

The Amigos need 202 to win off 50 overs.​

 

[AliB]

Great bowling lads, we can just stick to the basics, the target isn't anything. @greymatter776 & @Limit were fantastic and @MuchMore too bowled, won't bowl further, only one to get thrashed over 6!

36.1 Chelackal to Mural'aran, OUT, What a brilliant catch by Ali Bubere

Made my day.

 

[Na Maloom Afraad]

Uh oh.

 

[Perfect Square]

Ouch that hurts!

 

[MuchMore]

Good show by the bowlers - the chase might be tricky but we should be able to get this one in the bag.
