MANAWATU MONSTERS    193       45.0 overs
   
Canterbury Cannons won by 65 runs
  
Man of the match: Nathan Bracken
 
Great batting by the Cannons, on a tough track they managed what I believe should be a matchwinning score. Tendulkar was great as always and got good support from the rest. With the exception of Yovich and Lee the rest were disappointing

Astle and Dilshan had the hopes for the Monsters but when they departed the rest just fell apart. The dynamic duo of Bracken and Arnel were lethal

Man of the match: Andre Adams
 
Andre Adams showcasing that he still hasnt lost it, where as Papps (former Otago Volts) reminding us that we could have picked him. The warriors hae probably the most destructive top 4! McCullum come back HOME
 
Ponting had a 2 game rest so this is his first game back. He showed that he needs a rest every few games. What a century from him an a needed win to keep me ahead.

Also, Grant Elliott with the ball :hpraise

1/18 off 7 over's.

Aparenty you need to rest too :p
 
Round 10 will be a crucial round for most teams.
If the Aces win, they could go 6 points (3 wins) clear at the top.
If the Thunderbolts/Volts lose, they could well be out of contention for a top four spot.
I'll post the injuries etc. up soon.
 
I meant games. I'm still tired. I only woke up like an hour ago.

hedger_14 added 3 Minutes and 3 Seconds later...

Yes. A very important round indeed.

If I win, I will have a 6 point lead over Canterbury and either Hawkes Bay or Bay Of Plenty and a 4 point lead over whoever wins out of Hawkes Bay and Bay Of Plenty.

I think Symonds deserves an injury. He's played 9 straight games.

Yeah, but only one other player in the Volts has played at least five straight games.
So most of the physio team can focus on him. ;)
 
Well done to the Canterbury side :) Glad to get a win in a crucial time in. Tendulkar batted well with good support from the whole order. Bracken capped it off with a 5 for. Very happy at this. Was important game to win. Manawatu were around the same position as I was so good signs.

I think I will field the same side for the next round in hope to get a win. Felt happy with the balance.
 
Ouch!!!
That hurts. :facepalm
Damn you Ricky Ponting. :(

Our bowlers have done it again.
Ian Butler- 70 runs off 9 overs :eek:
Fleming and Shakib have played well though.
Afridi's been out of touch as well.

Lets see if we can bounce back in the next game.:)
