Nice. Our bowlers have been pretty good this season. Another game where they restricted the opposition to a low total. The batsmen where steady as always and chased the runs comfortably.

Should be a good game against the Knights, but considering we'll be playing at their home ground, things don't look too good for us!

Now, that game has let my expectations down. A bad day and hard luck for us. Every player failed to score anything except Barath who stabilized our innings after some early/important losses.

Hamilton worked down the order with some runs which took us to at least 197. :facepalm

Bowling was a bit challenging. No idea, if they played slow or our bowling was too good for Dehli players. Adams rendered with two early/vital wickets but then after nothing to cheer for us. Back to home boys! :( But well done.

I've enjoyed this league a lot Truman. :thumbs
 
How exactly does the sim open the attack with a spinner given you have STeyn & Amir as the opening pacers ??

Steyn wasn't playing. Hilfenhaus was so naturally you think he'd open the bowling. But opening with Vettori seems to be working for Sydney.
 
This is one of the two league where I really get pissed off when I lose, the second one being LMS, You know what I mean. I just love this league and the way you manage it. KIU

Wow, great end to the innings from Delhi there. Thought ND had it when Delhi needed 10.17 an over off the last 6 overs but Akmal scored his last 35 runs off only 13 balls while Jamshed hit 30* off 22.

Anyway, I guess it's my choice for pitch type?

Normal Pitch

1. Craig Kieswetter†#
2. Alexei Kervezee#
3. Callum Ferguson
4. Daniel Vettori*^v
5. Steven Smith#
6. Thilan Samaraweera
7. Aaron Finch
8. Ryan McLaren^
9. Steve O'Keefe^
10. Mohammad Amir#^
11. Ben Hilfenhaus^


In: Ryan McLaren
Out: Sudeep Tyagi

Ryan McLaren adds to our batting although his bowling hasn't been great this season with only 6 wickets but Tyagi was the only player who didn't perform in the semi final apart from Callum Ferguson who was the highest run scorer for our team in the regular season.
 
I think I would have rather played ND in the final. The only match I've lost to all season is Delhi and I've beaten ND twice.
