Would you have taken 22-1 after 5 overs? I would, but not in your position.
???

Any start where I don't lose a wicket is good. This is a decent start.
 
6.6 . Oleary to Greenwood
Slower ball, full, though quite wide outside off stump, tries to slam it away through the covers, swing and miss through to Henshaw
Easy there Billy...

I meant that as Old Wulfs, I'd have taken it, but as TT Lions I wouldn't.
Ahh...
Beh, its no big deal. Wasn't expecting to win anyways. Its usually teams in crowded servers with less bots which are better. I will be a bit better by next season hopefully.

7.5 4 Otto to Greenwood
You beauty, he has timed the pants off that delivery.
8.5 4 Oleary to Delop
on the toes, cut into the gap past cover and ball just wins the race to the rope

Alreight, I have to go for a while, so I expect all the updates from my counterpart, FreddieFan :).

Bowditch 1-0-7-0
Delop* 20 (37 balls)

After 12 overs, the TT lions are in a strong position...
 
14.6 1 Mcclen to Delop
slower delivery, late cut to 3rd man, fielder running wide to get the ball
14.5 4 Mcclen to Delop
Drives to extra cover and Bowditch can't cut it off.
14.4 2 Mcclen to Delop
worked around the legs to deep fine region, good running between the stumps
14.3 6 Mcclen to Delop
Up, and over the longest boundary. That will please Delop.
14.2 2 Mcclen to Delop
wide of off, guided to the left of 3rd man, good running between the stumps

Delop starts to take the attack to the bowlers...
 
16.2 W Mcclen to Greenwood
Through the gate the ball went, and to the pavilion Greenwood headed. A great wicket taking delivery!

The second wicket of the innings fall, and Old Wulfs will hope they can stop the new batsman settling in.
 
19.1 3 Bowditch to Delop
Ball hit over the top, landing safely and stopping short of the boundary.
And that's his fifty! Well played.

Nice innings by Delop
 
21.6 . Fieldwick to Delop
Shortish ball straying to leg stump, eyes the pull to cash in on it but it doesn't bounce as much as expected, taken high on the pad, hopeful shout for lbw from Fieldwick, pitched and struck outside the line of leg stump
21.5 . Fieldwick to Delop
flicked around to a diving fine leg fielder
21.4 . Fieldwick to Delop
on the back foot, managed to defends to the off, cover running in to field
21.3 . Fieldwick to Delop
Good tight fullish ball on off stump, firmly stroked straight up to mid off
21.2 . Fieldwick to Delop
Dabbed away to midwicket.
21.1 . Fieldwick to Delop
defends to the off, cover quick to field

Debutand Fieldwick bowls a maiden fir his first over for the club, a hopeful sign afetr his dissapointing batting display.
 
I have a feeling we could win this :)
End of Over 22: 116-2, runrate=5.27, reqrunrate=2.64 (189-10)
Fieldwick 1-1-0-0
Crouch* 15 (19 balls)
Delop 54 (65 balls)

Last Wicket: Greenwood b. Mcclen 36 (FOW: 92/2)
Delop has to be my best batter.
 
Told you you were favourites!

Still, I lost 6 wickets in 3 overs.....anything's possible.....
 
I'm happy :) Great match by my team.

Beh, admit it. You lost :) You'll still earn a rep point however...:p
