International Emerging Talent League | Indefinite hiatus

I will be rooting for Delhi because of Pranav's graphics which have contributed so much to my and this league. :D
 
I would love to see Hedger get pissed off , so watch out for me in the stadium with some banners solely directed at you ;)
 
Hurray! Glad we pulled off a big run chase. I am really happy that Sehwag scored his maiden century in a crunch game like this. Solid contributions from the others as well. Ishant and Chawla were disappointing, but that is kind of expected on an excellent pitch.

We've defeated the Superstars in all the occasions we've met so far. Hopefully the boys will put a good act together and we'll emerge as the winners once again. Even if we don't, I am glad that we've reached so far!

Also, good to see that the other teams are supporting us. Go big Delhi, go big!

Yes, a good victory for us there. Steven Smith was superb taking 2/30 off 7 overs and scoring 41*. All the batsman scored runs which was a good sign and the Aussie spinners along with Mohammad Amir bowled superbly. Vettori didn't do that great but still did a decent job with an ER of 4.5.
 
So close, yet so far! I actually thought that the bowlers did a good job after the end of the first innings. The opening partnership made it look as though we'll cruise home, but then came an epic middle order collapse.

Well done, Sydney! :thumbs

Congrats Sydney! A great team effort and also fantastic team management by hedger.
 
Well done Sydney. The best and most consistant team throughout the season went on to win. Nice.

I want to gauge if there's still interest in this. Reply here if you want to carry on.
