Some opening over that from Matt!

I back the Wildcats to chase this easily. Hope Naman makes a century!

All these posts on Naman, everyone always expects him to score a hundred. Why this hype? Am I under pressure in any way as to make him score huge runs?

You've got the suitcase right?

Well we really got off to a dream start getting 2 wickets in the very first over in Warner and Williamson so couldn't have asked for any better there. And then that partnership between and Smith and Guptill kept us on our toes. Our beloved Jetha bhai (@Akshay.) bowled some mystery deliveries to get rid of both of them. I think @manish is struggling with something but I am sure as the tournament goes he would do better as that the quality he has in himself. Good support shown by @NaviN GandhI and also he got 2 wickets as well. I think we conceded slightly more than what we would've liked to but we can surely get to this target.

Over all team performance is good, restricting them to below 250. Coming to my performance.. when simulator doesn't support you.. better I come with own simulator. Hope I finish that coding by next season .

If Grandhomme hadn't played that cameo along with the finish that Boult had while batting it woud've been a walk in the park for us.

Death overs proved to be costly for us

 

[Akshay.]

The lower order fight took them over 200 otherwise they could have been bundled out for far less
Overall we have done well to restrict a strong batting unit to 227
2 wickets in the first match, good start for Jethalal

226 in 40 overs is quite good i guess

We might well do the same while batting against our oppositions.

But the scenario changes when we play against pc teams. We can't conclude performance with this.

We just need to have that partnership going at the top of our batting order.

I can relate this to Naman vs Bella. That would be interesting .
