And that's the end of the match. Citizens Erased won by 123 runs.
Citizens Erased	365-2
world cup winners	242-10

Would've liked to dismiss them for less, but the H+F and TIE combination isn't the best, I guess.

 

[Johnners]

Won my cup match by 9 wickets, chased down 196 after Verhoven took 5-fer, Stroud making a century in the chase.

My next cup match is at home agaist Red Dragons, who played Scaly at some stage in the T20 comp. He should win, but i have a slight chance of causing an upset.

His worthless stamina makes him, well, worthless. There are better trainees out on the market, for not too much. I wouldnt bother with this guy at all, maybe if his wage showed he was close to respectable bat, i would train him until he pops and then sell him, but not much use. Still not the worst person to come out of the academy, not by a long shot.

[Magrat Garlick]

Port of Spain CC (not a bot!) 30 all out
Tuck 6-16, Harris 2-0

Dynamo Morpork 33-1 (4.3 ovs)
Herbert 17*, Virk 16*, James golden.

Bowled my opponent out for two runs less than Asterix, I might add.

 

[Spitfires_Fan]

Out of the Cup after losing to a team that were just too good for me, in spite of me playing GFI.

The Heath CC: 118/10 (28.4) Talbot 55* (86), Sutton 33 (28)
Brixton CC: 119/1 (21.4) Liddle 1/27

Could be a blessing in disguise really, as it enables me to cut my teeth and learn the game whilst playing meaningless friendlies. Hopefully by the time next season's cup competition rolls around, I'll be better equipped to compete with the bigger boys.

 

[Dead Badger]

Clobbered a bot in the first round; my next opponent's ratings look like this:

Top Order: competent
Middle Order: woeful
Lower Order: worthless
Seam Bowling: feeble
Spin Bowling: quality
Fielding: woeful

Should be able to beat them really on a GFI and with careful orders (they rely almost entirely on a gun spinner), but am quite tempted to TIE to get a boost in the league. Pretty sure that's the way I'll go, actually. It's not like I'd get much further in the Cup anyway, and I've got a bugger of an opening schedule, playing first and third in the league right off the bat.

Nonetheless: hurrah for the new season. Felt like it'd never arrive...

Meh, I had to contend with a feeble top order, and I won by ten wickets. Downer took 8-13.

I would sell Liveria now and Reimann next week when he should pop and buy in superb batsmen when you have the money. Siyabonga should pop in a month looking at wages so i would keep him on a net until then. That way you should have three superb batsmen at the end of the season.
