FC Match Thread Week 1, Match 2 | Xtremely Xplicit vs The Saints at Xtreme Circle, East Thane

[zimrahil]

This is how @Naman Thakur got Yash Hirani out....

 

[CerealKiller]

Seems like the "most consistent team" is about to get trashed. Well bowled, Naman and the others.

 

[Dipak]

Easy win in the bag

 

[El Loco]

Here’s a pic of the pitch. Cannot wait to have a bowl tomorrow....

Wow, more time spent in the dungeons and less time spent actually maintaining your own pitch!

It's obviously working though, the opposition aren't doing much else other than running in-between the wickets covering their backsides, how bizarre.

 

[Bilal45]

Saroj padhy after scoring a century and seeing his team lose.

Didn’t the Aussies call it mental disintegration? If you cannot take the heat etc........

 

[Alexei.]

That match's gonna be drawn and this one XX. It was somewhat obvious after the 1st XX innings CK & co. the bowling guys sealed it.

For what?

 

[asprin]

Well done XX on the win. It was very hard to come back from what happened on Day 1. Hopefully, we will turn the tables next time around.

 

[zimrahil]

Hopefully, we will turn the tables next time around.

No let’s hope not

Your team mates didn’t support you like @El Loco did so admirably for Landscape and look what happened to them
