[Kiko_97]

Ok can you make it Slazenger SXI please?

 

[PaulNixon1]

You shouldnt be worrying about your bat GG uou need to go out there and bang 100 no excuses.











































And i mean no excuses

 

[Highlander999]

An ok first 10 overs by us but we will need to accelerate the scoring soon.

Great work though mate

 

[gutterman]

good to see a start but we need to look for a total near 200 to have a chance

 

[ajay.bhat]

someone jst needs to come in and smash the ball around
we should get around 170 ..

hope i bowl well afterwards ..
come on guys

 

[jarl]

Good work mate...kutgw, and I think we are only headed to a score around 130-140 if we are not bowled out before the 20 overs..

 

[thesweepmaster]

Ok start...not too bad. We could get a decent total on the board if we don't lose too many wickets and then it's down to the bowlers.

 

[gutterman]

dont worry guys im in so we'll easily get a big score

 

[Aoun13]

plzz select me in next match

 

[Left_Hander]

Overs 11-20: A Total is Posted​

Canada Strike Again
In the eleventh over Gutteridge adds another 4 to the total with a pull over square leg. On the final ball of the over he tries to repeat the feat but ball bounces higher this time and hits his top edge. The ball flies high and stays in the air a long time before finally being safely taken by Surkari. Gutteridge went for unlucky 13 and Left Hander is the next man in.

Intelligent Play from the Batsmen

Captain's Knock
first half century of the tour. It's taken him 38 balls with 8 fours and 1 six and will be an important knock in deciding who will win this game. Since the field restrictions were lifted he's had to try harder to find the gaps and with his favoured mid-wicket to long-off area now guarded has had to resort to fine glances to long leg and slog sweeps over square. The job isn't over yet though and the final two overs will be all important.

Final Over Fireworks

With the score at 132 going into the final over, PCXI could do with another 10-15 runs to make this a really competitive total on this wicket. Surprisingly, Canada are choosing to bowl a spinner, Ali, at the death. hitting nothing but air as he becomes frustrated. On the fourth ball he tries again and this time is bowled spectacularly, he seems very dissapointed he couldn't see his team through to the end. Bobby Bob is next in with just 2 balls remaining in the innings. Rising to the occasion, he cracks one straight through mid-wicket for four. He attempts the same shot with the final ball but top edges it! Luckily all the fielders were back and it drops just short, allowing the batsmen to add another 2 runs to the total.

The economical bowling of Cummins and Sandher was let down by some loose figures from Maxwell and Ali, who both went for nearly 10 and over.

 

[Highlander999]

Well lead, skip We can defend that total. Come on bowlers, let give these Canadians a shock

 

[thesweepmaster]

Well 6 runs off 2 balls for me. I think i'll get more of a chance to bat the next time I play.
Anyway, we've got an okish score but we should defend it with all of the powerful bowlers that we have.

 

[covlad-99]

Not a massive total, but very competitive, leg spin genius Craig Tough should tear through Canada's tail to end their innings!
