Story Mental Blank - What was meant to go here?

Why are you training an 18 year old resp that is ridiculously stupid

No other trainee. I have a prof one of those as well.

Tanking Team Gets Thrashed

Stoned raiders were one of the teams in V.5 FC League that have some great players but don?t treat the longer form of the game seriously. They travelled to The Music Room, which has a flat pitch, they won the toss and elected to bat.

Half of the stoned raiders batting line-up had gone when the score was on 85. They couldn?t deal with the fast-medium bowling of Hadland as he took 6/16 off his 9.1 overs. Angel, on his first class debut for contributed with 2 handy wickets as he opened the bowling. Stoned raiders were shot out for 107.

The run-chase started well as Fontaine motored to 60 off 50 balls until he was trapped in front by Barrass. Bryon took a little longer but made 64 off 90 deliveries as he was bowled. Lampard and Fleetwood put on a 205 run partnership as they took the attack to all parts of the ground. Lampard ended on 154* and Fleetwood 109* as the captain, Lampard closed the innings on 3/404.

It didn?t get better in the second innings as the away side lost half of their team for 127. Pearse, who didn?t bowl in the first innings took 5 wickets to crush the away side. Hadland supported with 2 wickets. Stoned raiders were then bowled out for 161 as Mental Blank won by an innings and 136 runs.

Records Smashed, So Win Is Botty Easy

England 11 travelled to The Music Room to suffer what was going to be a severe beating. Mental Blank had put in most of their first team with a few second stringers to help out their form and give them some game time. Mental Blank won the toss and elected to bat first.

Richardson and Sayce knocked up a 119 run partnership in quick time before Richardson departed for 43. At times during the partnership the run rate was around 11! Dodds was stumped for 80 which short 20 runs on what would have been a deserved century. Lampard (136* - new high score) and Sayce (117* - new high score) then took the innings out to the end leaving the score on 2/399 – a Mental Blank record.

England 11 never stood a chance but Lampard decided to bowl himself as he conceded 41 runs off 5 overs. The rest of the bowlers bowled really tight including Noble getting a hattrick! The end result was that Mental Blank won by 296 runs.

----------------------------------------------------

Mental Blank – 2/399 (50 Overs)
Lampard 136*
Sayce 117*
Jeffries 1/59

England 11 – 103 all out (23.1 Overs)
Horwood 39
Noble 3/5
Angel 3/40​
