It's ok. I'm not sure what's happening with the cup now.

Read post 105.

These are the only games from yesterday's lot of friendlies that counted towards the Cup as far as I'm aware:

The Winners (1) defeated Saggers Mob (10) by 5 wickets
Asterix XI (4) defeated Wheelabarrowback (5) by 107 runs

So no change to the table then.

1. The Winners
2. caves_beachcc
3. Male Models
4. Asterix XI
5. Wheelabarrowback
6. Zero Pillars and Hero Fillers
7. Otago
8. Central Districts
9. Dynamo Morpork
10.Saggers Mob
11.Jaffna Jets
12.Jamee's 999ers

There are a few matches scheduled for tomorrow. From next week I'll enforce the rules regarding challenges (i.e. you can only challenge teams up to three places higher than your own). Note that, because there are two friendlies per week, rankings might change mid-week. If that happens and results in the team you challenged being more than three places above yours, the match will still count as long as the team was within three places of yours when the challenge was issued.

So we having a friendlies table?

 

[chaminda_00]

Had two tech pops for my youth side. On track for a win in my youth league game, they need 8.88 an over. Mind you they will probably get it.

 

[chaminda_00]

Challenges made:

Central Districts @ 25th Oct (tommorow matchday)
Saggers Mob @ 30th Oct
Dynamo Morpork @ 1 Nov

Is that what your meant to do challenge the three sides above you?

 

[Adamc]

I said you can challenge any team up to three places higher than your own. You don't have to challenge all teams up to three places higher than your own.

ihave issued 2 friendlies

v The Winners

v Wheelabarrowback

and how does this work for the top teams!
(i.e. you can only challenge teams up to three places higher than your own)

 

[Adamc]

The top team can challenge be challenged by the 2nd, 3rd or 4th team. The idea is to reach 1st and stay there. I don't think it's particularly complicated.

 

[chaminda_00]

Seems a bit strange only lower ranked side challenge though, A bit too much like professional boxing, when you get some old farts who don't box anyone and stay at number one.

 

[Adamc]

That's the point of having to play one game a week, ffs.

 

[chaminda_00]

Whatever, i'll just go with the flow.

Won my Youth League match, with a poor/deadful batsmen scoring a 50, go figure.

sorry to sound stupid lol so i can only challenge the team above me or teams below me can challenge me, but if no one challenges me what do i do? or can i challenge the teams below me or there is no point as teams should want to knock me off 2nd spot!

 

[alternative]

[Bobisback]

Aaaaaaaaaaaadaam! I dont get it, so we throw the ball down at a guy and he has to hit it? Dont see what the point is.

Needing 25 from 8.3 overs with Sandanayke on 93*. Sounds easy.

Morpork goes to 7 and Jaffna to 8, no changes otherwise. As I said from next week rules will be enforced (see post 105). If you can't work it out, tough.
