Update: currently playing a game for Queensland vs Tasmania. I came in when the score was about 180-4 and then I got bowled when the score was around 330 for 148 trying to pull Ben Hilfenhaus to pick up my 150. Could have easily run the ball down the 3rd man to pick up at least 2 or even a boundary. Tasmania struggled by scoring about 250 with me taking 6-15 or something like that and we (QLD) are currently around 230-4 on the third day I think
 
Started my 3rd season with my T20I debut vs Bangladesh , scored 8(8) before Taskin uprooted my middle stump.

Scored the fastest 100 @ Legend beating my previous best of 28 deliveries, this time it took me 25 deliveries.
it was usual slog fest no fielder at on on side so poor Dernbach(5 overs 111 runs) suffered my onslaught.

followed that up with another 100 a 132(47)

No images but an update on my career (roughly):

I won the IPL playing for Delhi Daredevils (the closest they'll ever get to winning :D ) with a top score of 66 (I think), can't remember who against but I recall that in 1 game, I was on strike for the last over and I think Sunil Narine was bowling it. Smashed him for 34 runs (5 6s + 1 4); was so annoyed that I didn't get that one ball over the rope as well. BBI of 8-5 I think (8 wkts) so it was a good IPL debut for me.

Now into my 3rd career year (18 yrs old) and I played a test match against Bangladesh (for England) which they somehow managed to win. We scored ~250 in the first innings (me only scoring 8, bowled by Abdur Razzak) and then we bowled them out for about 160 (I took 5 wickets). We then scored at least 330 with me hitting 41 and was bowled out by one of the Hossains trying to back-foot drive into the off side. Bangladesh's 2nd innings didn't start well; they were about 35-3 with me picking up all 3 wickets (in one over I think) of Haque, Ashraful and their num. 5 bat who I can't remember the name of. Then in came Shakib-al-Hasan with Tamim Iqbal who put on a monster partnership of round about 350 (probably more) with Tamim scoring 220+ not out. I could have had Shakib out 1st or 2nd ball but he reviewed an LBW decision which hit him outside the line. Further along the line, I could've had Shakib out LBW again but once again, he opted for the review and hawk-eye showed that the ball was missing leg stump by millimetres and he went on to get his 100. In short, they Bangladesh chased down about 440 to win. I don't know in what universe that is possible
 
I decided to play C07 mode in the game as I was playing it after a while. My player, a batting allrounder got out on 399 off 96 balls playing for Warwickshire. That was too easy to be enjoyable so I scrapped that and started a career as a spinner for the first time (a leggie) and boy I am loving it. The spin bowling in this game so very good. The misses off the defense is looking very real. I have not picked up a wicket (15 overs bowled so far in one innings) yet playing for Essex but I am really loving the bowling. The bad part is that my player is 6'6 so he never gets the LBW in his favour as the ball goes over the stumps most times. May be, I should straight afresh with a 5'5 bowler. :p
