Damn.. 347 to win... Need openers to fire.. Disappointing performance from bowlers. Change in bowling order didnt worked out that well. Should have played with tried and tested plan

 

[Sartaj]

Damn,bowled out in the 46th over but the bowlers have something to defend.
Jameson and Ismail were really impressive.

Sorry. I'm getting annoyed at new players joining, players arranging friendlies with different people.


Varun, cancel your friendly against Aditya on the 31st. Varun and bcvs will play on the 31st for their first ODI. That way they will only finish in the rest week. And Iridium, cancel your friendly with AP and play Zorax.

can new players still join though? Unless I have overlooked it I don't seem to have gotten a response when i asked previously

 

[AngryPixel]

Its all upto hedger. I think with large number of players we can create two pools. Veteran players play in one group and new player like you and me play in other. That way we would get more competitive games rather than one sided matches. Top perfromer of our group should play in upper group next season.

I think you misunderstand. I'm not new to ftp, just new to enter the PC FTP comps. I can rate 170k.

I'll player wherever and whenever the organisers say would be best, though. The reason I didn't enter earlier was I made round 5 of the cup

 

[AngryPixel]

Its not a new FTP cup... We just play friendly matches with each other and hedger takes care of rankings here.

Nice little partnership there

End of over 11 (11 runs) - New York Yankees(74-1). 273 runs required from 39 overs. RR 6.73 RRR 7.00
B. Lydamore 31 (31b) , L. Christopher 36 (34b) , W. Heairfield 1-0-11-0

I smell a Kohli-Yuvi-Raina style chase here

Come on Yankees, you can do it..

Allan Reid gotta score some runs in this match. He was piss poor with the ball. If he doesn't score many then Youth bowler Lawrence Wilkins would get a chance in next match..

 

[ste_mc_efc]

Again you misunderstand. I would be a new entrant to the competition/tour games.

 

[AngryPixel]

You would win it easly though Your rating is better than everyone here

This one gonna go down to the wire :

End of over 30 (14 runs) - New York Yankees(205-2). 142 runs required from 20 overs. RR 6.83 RRR 7.10
L. Christopher 105 (97b) , J. Bradshaw 16 (14b) , M. Issa 10-0-79-0

This innings mimicing Yesterday's match so well.. Opener fell. Good long partnership. Then one of them got out after scoring nice 50. Other one scored a 100 and new batsman played a cameo to get them home. Lets hope Bradshaw plays that cameo

Fling.. Bradshaw gone..

 

[AngryPixel]

What a innings from Lesroy Christopher :hpraise:hpraise...
Absolutely stunning.

New York Yankees won by 4 wickets

End of over 49 (3 runs) - New York Yankees(347-6) RR 7.08
L. Christopher 181 (146b) , A. Reid 3 (7b) , K. Mulherin 9.5-0-72-0

Bowlers were crap today but Batsmen have chased the total perfectly.

Lydamore played nicely and other batsman also chipped in.

Just saw the Match Ratings.. I pulled of a massive upset.

Hydrabad(130,827) vs NYY(113,785)



I think you bcvs lost a wicket too many in the end. Had they played full 50 overs, score would have been greater..

 

[Chewie]

... both of you have higher ratings than Iridium and I...

Chewie added 0 Minutes and 36 Seconds later...

Again you misunderstand. I would be a new entrant to the competition/tour games.

I don't think Hedger would have any problem with that. Gives him someone who's close-ish to his level. You'd have to ask him though

 

[AngryPixel]

Then i should be higher than you and Iridium in ratings

 

[Chewie]

We need to have a match to determine that

I reckon that your rating is high because you've got a few awesome players that bring your overall team rating up. Not sure whether that's a good or a bad thing when playing someone with a consistently good team.

 

[AngryPixel]

My team isn't dependent on just a few good players now. I have two batsman in 40k+ rating. 3 in 35K+, 2 in 30k+. So its pretty much well spread batting order. But today was a weird game for bowlers. Best bowlers of my team got smacked and younger bowlers were the ones who saved the day.

 

[Iridium]

Boy I'm glad I canceled my friendly with you AP. I would have lost. Nah, I'm still keen to play you. I reckon I could still take you down.

Hahaha.. I'm capable of pulling of upsets... This win gave me confidence
Lets hope i win a game or two against hedger too
