How are you doing in ICC? (any version)

[rumblah]

After winning the world cup quite comfortably, and the first test against Sri Lanka, Australia were going great.

Or so i thought....

It's amazing how much a key player actually means to a team, Brett Lee broke a rib in the 2nd Sri Lanka test and will miss 5 weeks..

2nd Test, Sri Lanka - Lost

1st Test, India - Scrappy draw, would have lost if not for a magical 205 from Mr. Cricket.

I have to open the bowling with Johnson and Clark, have just debuted Hilfenhaus (Tait was terribly out of form) and struggling in the spin department.

2nd test - Won easily, Clark, Watson and Hilfenhaus all bowled extremely well on a batsmens pitch.

Watson also made 91 in the first innings.

After losing the 3rd Ashes test I got worried, however I won the 4th and 5th tests, thanks to Langer and Clark in the 4th test. And debutant Callum Ferguson and McGrath (8 wickets) in the final test. I gave Symonds and Dorey a game too in the final match as the series was wrapped up. 4-1 without Ponting for 4 of the games.

wha year?

Taking on the Derbys challenge once again with my sav files seemingly not corrupting, first game in i was all out for around 400 with no one scoring a century.

Ive remembered that Graeme Wagg is ALWAYS! the most expensive bowler but with my lack of talent in my first year a bits and pieces player is better than a squad filler.

Ojha isnt the god that people say he is it seems, just hoping he isnt one of those sub continent players which magically vanish

I retract my previous statement

i just started a game as nottinghamshire. i got a youth bowler who had an average of about 24 and he has continued his good average here taking two 4wickets in two matches. i hav lost both my od games and i have one win one draw and one loss in cc

 

[Sureshot]

wha year?

First season.

Clarke came into the ODI side and has done well. I'm iffy on the bowling and finding a fifth bowler, I think I'll bring Watson into the side as Symonds is a bit expensive.

 

[RoboRocks]

I've started a new season as Kent. They have too many kolpak players for my liking so they'll be a few changes at the end of the season.

 

[Griffo]

Ive found Symonds to be very useful on a turning wicket, only rarely gets smashed... I still prefer Watson but

 

[Sureshot]

Neither have done much with the ball for me tbh. I won the CB Series, Bracken did well. McGrath and Lee were poor. The real winners were the batsman, all contributed.

 

[Griffo]

Who was your other bowler

 

[Sureshot]

Johnson

Hogg and Tait played 2 games each. Tait did well tbh, 4 wickets. Hogg was iffy. I could've used Warne (he was available) I chose not to, for realism.

Ireland are a big bogey side for me with Middlesex. Just lost to them yet again. Damn!

If you were committed you would give a link (Yes im in a lazy mood)

 

[anakwalajinn]

I am in 2022... Pretty boring =/
The only real player I have left is Adnan Raza...

 

[Griffo]

Horrible technique by the batsmen but he bowls tight to the stumps which I think is something spinners dont do enough
