World Championship of Cricket 1911 | The closest Championship ever

So, We are the Champions.

The thing is every player gave 100% in every match. Batsman & bowlers supported each other. I must say our bowlers did a fabulous job on keeping opposition's score to a very small amount and our batsmen made sure we dont fall behind.

I am enjoying this league very much and glad to be a part of this. :)

No Guest Team will play in this edition.

Manager: @VC the slogger

So, it's time for yet another new season. Lancashire make their first appearance in the tournament and do so as hosts, which should be exciting.

First game of the season is, as usual, between the two touring teams.

New South Wales v Transvaal

@themusketeer @Matt121 and @Aggz to post line-ups.
 
Short and sweet, nice.

Percy Sherwell comes in for Halliwell, will be keeping as well as leading the side.

GL Garnsey replaces A McBeath.
J Mackay replaces A Bowden.

We lost our star performer Bowden from 1904. Lets see how we perform this time. Hoping for another good contest and a win.
 
Can NSW make it three in three?
For the past two years, New South Wales have gone almost completely unchallenged, defeating Middlesex, Yorkshire, Transvaal and the Philadelphians on their way to back-to-back titles. This year, they will have to defend the title without last year's lynchpin Albert Bowden. In his place is free-scoring Jim Mackay, who joins a line-up already boasting Trumper, Duff and Noble. It really isn't fair for everyone else.

Lancashire

A triumphant County Championship last year means that Lancashire have their first shot at the World Championship this time around. However, they do seem to lack the quality of their Australian opponents. Their strength, like New South Wales, is in their batting, which is built around Archie MacLaren and the likes of Hallows, Hornby, Poidevin, Sharp, Spooner and Tyldesley.

New South Wales

The winners of the last two Championships, New South Wales have been strengthened once again by the presence of "Sunny Jim" Mackay, the free-scoring batsman who completes a fearsome top six. The bowling might not have that same excessive amount of quality, but it is good enough for Trumper, Duff and Noble to be confident of their fourth World Title.

Transvaal

Transvaal exceeded expectations last year as they beat Middlesex to finish as runners up. This year, we can expect more of the same - tenacious batting all the way down the order, and skilled slow bowling will be the order of the day. Watch out for their two Gordons - Shepstone and White - who were excellent twelve months ago with the ball.

Context
New South Wales remain the dominant cricketing force at present.

Watch out for
If Jim Mackay doesn't score a hundred, I'd be absolutely shocked.

Prediction
New South Wales will make it a hat-trick of World Titles, and a fourth overall.

Jim Mackay romped home for NSW.

Code:
Transvaal           190 & 192
New South Wales     265 & 121/4              
   
New South Wales won by 6 wickets
Man of the match: Bill Howell        

Points: New South Wales 11, Transvaal 0
 
Transvaal's batsmen looked unsettled in front our not so good bowling attack. As always Trumper & Duff gave us a solid start . Jim Mackay showed his capability in 2nd innings. Good win for us.

Archie McLaren*
Reggie Spooner
Johnny Tyldesley
Harold Garnett
Jack Sharp ^
James Hallows ^
William Findlay†
William Cook ^
Les Poidevin ^
Alexander Kermode ^
Walter Brearley ^

Some strong performers in this squad. Tossing up between Heap and Hallows but superior stats in Hallows favour means he gets the start. Looking for our first win.
 
Our bowling has been really good, it's just the batting that concerns me.

Tyldesley starred again with the bat in a simple chase.

Code:

Lancashire          218 & 185/4              
   
Lancashire won by 6 wickets
Man of the match: Johnny Tyldesley

Points: Lancashire 11, Transvaal 0
 
Yes! My first win in the league. Bowlers all chipped in and the batsmen held their own, led by Tyldesley.

Unchanged for a tough matchup against NSW.
