FC Match Thread Match 2 :- Xtreme Rebelz vs West Coast Wildcats at Rebelz Den | DAY 4

[Manish.]

Big disappointment. But to be truth I predicted this earlier and mentioned to bowl first at any cost in the team meeting. But things going wrong. We will restrict Rebelz for low score tomorrow.

@El Loco has been excellent with the bat.

Disappointed with the first innings, but there's still 3 more to go

 

[Targaryen]

We did quite well there. I'm getting this weird feeling about Matt, tbh. 80-100+ lead should be sufficient for us. Beauty of even pitch type is that we get results that are unexpected.

 

[NaviN GandhI]

Well, I expected a 350+ score from Wildcats from a pitch like this. Batsman's struggle to maintain a decent partnership through the innings. I hope our bowlers perform well to restrict them below our first innings score. This match might turn out to be a Batsman paradise from 2nd innings so, bowlers need to strike in the 1st innings to give us a good chance. Seeing what our bowlers have done so far I think they can do it.

 

[Manish.]

Allen to Reddy, OUT,

This is not fair . I'm cheering you to take others wickets. Not mine.

 

[Akshay.]

Loco played a crucial innings which helped us to get to a respectable total
If we make early inroads on Day 2, we can turn this around
Good start for Jethalal in TPCL with a wicket in the 4th over, need to continue the same tomorrow

 

[AsadRM]

Valiant effort from @El Loco. Batting was disappointing. Chandler and Manish provided us a respectable total. I and @CerealKiller were batting well and counterattacking them. But unfortunately. we both got out at the wrong times.

We all are getting starts but we are unable to convert. I, @CerealKiller, @Chandler Bing, @ahmedleo414, @Naman Thakur all got settled but threw it away at the wrong times. We gotta convert these starts into something substantial guys. These 30s won't help our team's cause. Maybe we need a conversion coach? Mohammad Yousuf should help us there Just a joke, by the way

 

[NILAYSHAH60]

Not much of a worry there guys we have got a fighting total. All thanks to Choo-Choo Locomotive (@El Loco ) and @Chandler Bing. We also have got wickets at the right moment. We can turn it on tomorrow by putting pressure on the Rebelz and inspiring a collapse. All the very best especially to @Parth D @MattW and @Manish. We can surely do it guys.

 

[ABDULLAH]

Our bowlers excelled in the first innings, they were absolutely brilliant. Time for our batsman to show up and get a lead of more than 50 to 100 runs.

 

[AsadRM]

After making a counterattacking 30 earlier in the day, Asad was seen practising in the hotel's parking, at 3 in the morning. When asked why he was doing so, he replied: "I am being paid for hundreds not 30s". He refused to talk more and requested us to let him focus on his batting. Our blind photographer captured the image attached below. (Sportssuck Times)

I couldn't find a better or a bigger image

 

[CerealKiller]

Bowlers will have to do well do make sure Rebelz don’t get much of lead, and clearly the batsmen need to improve a lot in the second innings

 

[Sherlock Holmes]

A good reality check on Day 1. We will try to come hard and make a comeback.

Credit to Rebelz. They outplayed us today. But there are three days of cricket still left!

 

[zwarrior]

Great first day for us. Happy with the way things turned out. Very good performance by bowlers as everyone performed well and picked up wicket. Ali and Hamzaa threw away their wickets after a good start. Faizan should get a big one while other batters support him. We need partnerships now.

Locomotive and Chandler played well too. Good for us they didn't get any support. Next couple of partnerships will be very critical for us.

 

[zwarrior]

This is not fair . I'm cheering you to take others wickets. Not mine.

Maybe you will take Allen's wicket now

Day 1 Xtreme relbelz days.
