:mad
I'm sure we can't win now whatever the situation is. They were reduced to 8 for 2 and then no one could go on and pick up more wickets. Expected wickets from Ashwin and Harbhajan.
 
^ Unfortunately, that was your last match of the season. :( You needed, to win that game to have any chance of making the semi finals. Will be posting, details for season three & the draft sometime in the next few days. :)
 
Ben, I thought I'd let you know beforehand. I won't be able to continue managing SR. Hopefully, there is enough time for you to find a replacement.
 
And, yes I had a fantastic time here. It is manged very well indeed.
 
^ Didn't expect this. It's a shame, the thread won't be the same without you. Hopefully you can join the league again, sometime in the near future. Thanks for being a great manager. :)
 
I'll see if I can get back. I need Dipak to come back quickly in SLPL and take his team. Then, I'll have two teams to manage, one here and one in APL. That would do the job. If you don't find anyone, let me know.
