Tables

Pool A:-

Team | Played | Won | Lost | Tied | Points | NRR | For | Against Waikato Warriors |8|6|2|0|12|0.504|1998/385.3|1855/396.3
Auckland Aces |8|4|4|0|8|0.119|1790/381.4|1810/396
Canterbury Crusaders |8|4|4|0|8|0.040|1840/395.4|1844/400
Manawatu Monsters |8|2|6|0|4|-0.681|1711/381.4|1927/373.1

Mathematically all four teams can still make it and all four teams can still not make it, but realistically Waikato are through, and Manawatu are gone.

For Waikato not to make it, Auckland and Canterbury would both have to win their two remaining games, and hope Waikato lose their two remaining games, so it'll come down to NRR between the top three teams.

For Manawatu to make it, Auckland and Canterbury would both have to lose their two remaining games, and hope Waikato win their two remaining games, so it'll come down to NRR between the bottom three teams for the second spot behind Waikato.

Pool B:-

Team | Played | Won | Lost | Tied | Points | NRR | For | Against Bay of Plenty Vikings |8|6|2|0|12|0.379|1842/378|1776/395.1
Wellington Thunderbolts |8|5|3|0|10|0.204|1965/390.1|1933/400
Otago Volts |8|3|5|0|6|-0.235|1852/387.3|1989/396.4
Hawke's Bay Magpies |8|2|6|0|4|-0.366|1823/400|1687/342.4

Bay of Plenty are guaranteed of a spot in the playoffs, while the defending champions have now officially crashed out before the playoffs.

For Otago to move ahead of Wellington and progress alongside Bay of Plenty, they would have to win their two remaining games, while Wellington would have to win their two remaining games, so it'll come down to NRR between Otago and Wellington for the second spot behind Waikato.
 
Dilshan and Guptill are morons.
Anyways, nice that we moved up a place from the bottom.
 
Good chance of winning the Hadlee Shield tomorrow and thereby sealing the deal considering that BOPV have quite a few players who need to miss a game.
 
No I do not think so, we will rest all the key players in last match and play all the unplayed players that round.

We want to own and win the Hadlee Shield as well as NZPL 7
 
This is really just unbeleivable. The problem is its not one guy who goes slowly, In every game theres just someone who does.

Ah Well a horrid season is about to be over soon, unless we stage a miraculous comeback.

BKB1991 added 11 Minutes and 38 Seconds later...

Somehow need the Vikings to win, and its going to be tough considering they are going to be resting some players :(

Brought in Amla for Malik, so I can beef up my batting, but Dilshan has had a horrible time with the bowl, so fingers crossed.
 
Callum I am sorry I will not be able to post the lineups ████...

I thought I will do that after simming matches but the net has gone down and posting this through mobile
 
I won't sim your match until tomorrow then, so you still have 24 hours to post it. :)
 
Meh chances to reach semi finals are totally gone. Good luck to all other teams.:)

Just what i was looking for a handsome victory. Dravid, Tendulkar and How played really well and scored quick 50's. We could've got to 290 if Bravo hadn't got bogged down though.
