OD Match Thread Round 10, Match 30 - Nine Dragons v Landscape

[VC the slogger]

Match venue

Kowloon Cricket Club, Hong Kong.

Pitch

The match will be played on a bouncy wicket. The ball should carry through quite nicely to the wicket-keeper, benefiting both batsmen and fast bowlers. However, the ridiculously short boundaries at this ground could also make six hitting easier than most other grounds and thus lead to somewhat big totals.

Lineup rules & guidelines

- No more than two star players per XI.
- A capable wicket-keeper (/) must feature in the XI.
- Try marking 6 bowlers in your XI, so a non-bowler doesn't come on and potentially cost you the match.
- The country flags on this forum look pretty. Try using them while posting your lineups if possible.

Things got a bit unnecessarily tense in the 43rd over when Landscape lost Swirler, but Sam Parkinson and Aalay Davidson remained there in the end to see the job done. Landscape finished with 6 wins out of 10 in the league stage, thus easily assuring themselves a place in the playoffs alongside the Hugging Muffins (7 wins out of 10) and The Demons (5 wins out of 10). Meanwhile, the Nine Dragons will have to battle it out with Slipperpool and The Amigos on the NRR table to see which one among them makes it to the playoff stage.

That will be the match
A very close match indeed but in the end the Landscape batsmen managed to overtake the total
Landscape played very well chasing such a big total
They made it with just 14 balls to spare

Brilliant match that. Our bowlers deserve all the credit for restricting them to 280 odd. And I am finding form at the correct time which is great for us as we head into the playoffs. Back to back hundreds are really satisfying. Let us win this now guys!

 

[MrNginator]

Unlucky to not have restricted them. We definitely could have won.

 

[themusketeer]

Fantastic. All the important players found their form at the right time. @Aalay finally ripping through and User scoring a lot of runs. If we leave that small collapse, we were in control whole time. Clarke and User made the chase pretty easy. Congrats User. Not to forget @_Sam_ 's contribution behind the stumps and in the chase.

We will surely like to keep this momentum in the finals.

 

[AliB]

That means we are staying!
