[Saroj padhy]

Superb bowling effort..
@MattW 5 wicket haul
Saxena century
1st match won..
Will get alot confidence from it

 

[AliB]

We started out well in the first inning but Saxena took us to the back foot, TBH our bowling was way bad than the practice games.

We started bad with losing Peter at the start, partnership between me and Sarvesh got broken at a very wrong time, we kep[t on losing wickets at regular intervals. Though Shakti did a great job which kept us in the game. At the end of the day we weren't upto the mark and Monkeys finished to be the better side. Congo Monkeys, We have to work hard Amigos, don't worry we'll bounce back.

 

[GlitchInTheMatrix]

WHAT A MATCH!!!
Unhappy to lose the first game, but every batsman did well except Goodwin, Jack and Zack...

 

[Abhas]

Phew. Relief! What a match. Great spell from Matt to demolish their batting. Fortunate that my death-overs training in nets proved helpful.

 

[imVkohli]

Samarth Saxena did really well...
291 is a good score
depended on the bowling department now..

Great recovery to get to 291. Superb batting by Samarth, fine knocks by Santhosh and Umar too.

Hey Hey Hey HEY .Where where you are dialing a wrong number sir. I only scored 129 not 291.

 

[T.A.Sa_biTT]

A century from Saxena, Fifer from @MattW, some contribution from others done the trick for us; overall great teamwork
I should've watched this thread before entering my Fantasy PCPL team!!

 

[Targaryen]

I wonder why the sims hate me so much. From the first match of pre-season to 1st match of series the outcome is the same. Really disappointed.

Sorry to break it to you, but you're useless.

 

[NaviN GandhI]

I really don't know what to say, Was looking forward for a win in the first match.. It is very disappointing... Loosing the match with just 3 runs... I am happy with my performance in both department. 3 wickets and 41 runs is good but wish I could have stayed longer. Monkeys really played well, Kudos to their bowlers. They fought till the end and won the game. We will bounce back in the next game for sure [HASHTAG]#GoAmigo[/HASHTAG][DOUBLEPOST=1439463826][/DOUBLEPOST]

Just chill man, you will come to form moving forward.... Just wait and watch, we will thrash the opponents.
