[Preseason] July 28th: Lunar Sharks vs. Brawny Bandits

[Imager36]

Even better over from Scid. He looks in good form.

 

[w3lshrugby]

Now this has turned into a great start. Should bowl them out from here...

This really is excellent bowling from the quicks

Now spin in on the action - we're going to knock them over cheaply here. Bring on the Smashers tomorrow

 

[Imager36]

Yup. The fact that Funky's still an offie means that we're playing 3 spinners, but the two pacemen have done their jobs very well.

 

[w3lshrugby]

Funky is having a mare. We need me now.

Looks like I need to revert back to a three/four pace attack for tomorrow.

Much needed wicket from Haris there. The tail should roll over when I bowl now

w3lshrugby added 9 Minutes and 42 Seconds later...

No wickets for me, leaving that to Khany...but very very economical!

 

[sohum]

You picked up the big wicket, Rhys!

 

[Cricketman]

Very tidy stuff from Sciddy and I. Looks like the next Lilee-Thommo/Wasim-Waqar combination! Combined figures of 8-0-40-4, what more can you ask for from your front line quicks?

Any reason KC is having a bowl?

 

[sohum]

Probably because Funknath is going at over 10 an over...

 

[Cricketman]

Well KC's part time quick stuff isn't doing much better . Slammed for 2 sixes and a four with a ball left... single.

 

[sohum]

Funny how that worked out, huh? Will probably need to adjust the probabilities in the death to let a pure bowler bowl regardless of his economy.

 

[w3lshrugby]

Horrendous over there. Still I think we should chase down 150.

 

[sohum]

And Rhys doesn't even get the last over... ridiculous. Who wrote this sim?

 

[w3lshrugby]

Excellent work to bowl the Bandits out for less than 150. Though it's probably a bit more than it should've been from 60/5.

 

[sohum]

Should've rolled them for 130. That over from K_C probably didn't help.

We'll win it with 4 overs to spare.

 

[Cricketman]

Talk about the captain underbowling himself! No matter, apart from that shocker from KC, Funknath bounced back well in that last over. 149 needed to win, it'll be a tricky chase. Shouldn't have happened after limiting them to 99/7.

 

[w3lshrugby]

Great start to the chase though Sharks! Looking very comfortable.
