Dhoni you ripper!

I'm not sure how we almost stuffed that chase up, but in a more or less must win game after back-to-back losses, we came good.

All of our bowlers were good, expect Collymore who'll obviously be dropped next match after only bowling two overs.

Batting wise it was down to my strong international middle order, as they got the job done.
 
Wooh! That was so close game.

Batting was horrible. Strauss played a boring but valuable innings while others fell around him. I'm damn pissed off with Kallis and Dilshan now. A lot is expected from them but they are failing miserably. We were very slow in batting and hence it resulted in only 206.

Chris Woakes - :mad Bresnand and Vaas were yet again top-class in bowling. Others too were great except Woakes who gave last 2 sixes :mad

Extremely good contest, that was.

Taunton Titans won by 6 wickets (with 93 balls remaining)
  
Player of the match: Daniel Vettori (Taunton Titans)
 
Yes this is the first time he's performed so I'm really happy :)
 
But this is the first time he's performed with the ball isn't it?
 
WTF is going on, three straight losses is a bit too weird for a team with so great players but failing to perform.
