FTP: From the Pavilion general chat

Iridium XI won by 53 runs

Yea, I'm throwing my Pavilion Cup match....

And me, too...

 

[Iridium]

I'm going to have some fun with that. I'm going to play a reversed lineup, with everyone on aggressive orders on everything.

Maybe I should hold a small competition where you can guess what I get bowled out for and what margin I lose by. The winner will get 10 vCash

Easy win for me today. Bowled them out for 115, Phillips 3/26 and Whiteman 3/31, Baldry 2/18 and Lansing and Moxly took a wicket each. Pettinger then scored 50* as we won by 9 wickets, Murch out for 32 and Omara scoring 14*.

I'm fielding an under strength side for my SOD today. Opponent is just 74k rated, so its about time I give my valuable young assets some experience to start with. Might be playing about 4-5 youths. Pomersbach's fatigue rules him out though.

Remember this? Too bad your best batsman didn't even get a chance to bat!

 

[Iridium]

It wouldn't have mattered one bit if I won. I was already out. Besides, I have a bit more control over how players go about their game in FTP.

 

[Aussie Team]

Damn, I lost the game.

Congrats, you did an Iridium on that one!

Hey Chewie, Just wanted to say thanks for selling off such a marvellous players in Glenn O'Keeffe to me.
That guy is just dominating each bowling attack he plays.
In 3 SODs till now, He has scored 154, 148 and yesterday 167. So he nearly got 3 150's in as many matches for me. Awesome.

What a match for Aladdin Yousif at the moment. Top scored for UAE with 59* off 52 balls before coming out and taking 2/9 with 2 maidens from 5 overs as South Africa are 102/8 chasing 216. He probably won't get to bowl again though.

 

[Iridium]

I've just set up what can only be described as the most epic match orders and lineup..... in the world.

Watch me destroy my pavilion cup opponent.

 

[Iridium]

End of over 50 (21 runs) - Surrey Snakes(393-3) RR 7.86
J. Abood 190 (151b) , N. MacDonald 136 (91b) , B. Pfaff 10-0-105-1
That is the 300 partnership (304 runs, 198b, 21x4, 5x6) SR:153.54

I'm so going to win this match

 

[Haarithan]

Going pretty well in my YOD friendly against Sartaj. Well and truly mine to lose, but you never know...

lol what was he thinking? Using 8 bowlers?!

 

[Sartaj]

Yeah,was trying out a few rookies I recently bought.
Not that my first xi is significantly stronger,but Timmermans and Fleming's inclusion should help us next week.

 

[Haarithan]

Yea I was like 'wtf?!' when I saw you make only 244 in that paradise wicket. But then I realized you had rested quite a few of your young veterans. Bring it on next Sunday.
