113/4 at the end of the over.

Wow, a heap of run outs in this match - didn't really expect that. Maybe the players forgot to wear their contact lenses. Either that or they have fallen out!

Its a shame, when I played a couple of matches before starting the story they were much closer matches, I lost one quite heavily and only managed to win the second with 4 balls to spare.hondeyho said:
Also it looks good because c2004 IS the best game (well its better than c2005 and BLIC anyway)

I agree. The only thing that is missing that is in the other games is the Twenty20 Cup. I also agree that Championship matches are easier to score in than one dayers. As Essex, I got 243 all out against Yorkshire in the Championship but got 56 all out in a Twenty20 against Middlesex!Kev said:
