Stats have been updated. Taking Round 3 lineups in the thread.

I'll update the standings after Round 3 and also introduce a new player injury/unavailability system upon its conclusion.
 
Enjoy the 'unchangedness' while you still can, because things will get realistic after Round 3. :lol
 
That was some real bad batting performance by our team, real bad. Bowling was still quite good though.

         Mark Atkinson         5(17b)

47.3  Angel to Mural'aran, one run, That was a very risky single.
47.4  Angel to Atkinson, no run, The umpire turns down that ridiculous appeal from Darren Berry        
47.5  Angel to Atkinson, two runs, Took the first one quickly the second was no problem
47.6  Angel to Atkinson, no run, Appeal for LBW, a bit too optimistic though
      Jo Angel finishes off an extremely expensive spell
