James Faulkner looked perfectly warmed-up for the main tournament

Code:
QUEENSLAND FIREBIRDS 281/7     50.0 overs
AUSTRALIAN ALL STARS 231/8     50.0 overs
   
[B]Queensland Firebirds won by 50 runs[/B]
  
Man of the match: James Faulkner
 
I can close the trading window straightaway now that the warm-ups are done but I've decided to leave it open for a little while longer just in case managers feel like doing some last minute trades. Mind you, there are a few free agents such as Rogers, Siddle, Hilfenhaus etc that deserve to be traded into one of the squads. So, it'll stay open till I complete the warm-up stats and post the lineup discussion in the social group.
 
FA Trade:

Peter Siddle in for Peter Forrest

Finally an Australian seamer in my squad.
 
And an overseas FA trade aswell:

Shahid Afridi in for Tim Southee

Shahid Afridi has had an exceptional comeback to form in the domestic circuit, and not to forget the devastating 7-12.

What ?! seriously ?! what were the batters thinking ? the #1 and #2 batsmen are useless ! :facepalm Maxwell proved that he should be #1 . :facepalm
 
What a great game. When I read that my team had been dismissed for a mere 193, I was expecting a massive defeat. Thank god, Brad Hodge played well in the middle order to guide us to that total.

I was relying on spin mostly to make early inroads in to the Melbourne side, but Morne Morkel did that for us, and at a great economical rate.

Great to get things ticking on the positive side.

This is to notify the WCF manager that this'll be Shane Warne's last ELA season. He retired from all cricket today. Its likely to be Adam Gilchrist's last too as his retirement will come into effect after the CPL this year and I'm not sure whether I'll be able to complete this or start another season by then.
 
Hey VC,

Can you please add Anish's name to my team. He is my co-manager.

Thank you
 
Pup,Punter,Watto and Trott did a great job after that Mckay bowled very well.It is always nice to start with a win :cheers:cheers
