CW Battrick Cup

if it was top 2 through i was half a chance but just one i am buckleys..asterix will kick my butt!

Don't mean to be harsh or anything, but you would have no chance if it was even top 3.

Hook is overated, his other opening bowler more of a wicket threat.

Carragher is ok i guess Remarkable/Prof but Hook is better because of his secondaries. Hook having a temprament of Defensive means he most likely won't take big bags against good batting teams but he won't ever get carted. Carragher will go past Hook though as my best bowler and as you say is more of a wicket taking threat being an attacking player.

Yep what your saying is true not harsh imo. But its to be expected we've had our teams alot longer than bugs has.

Targeting Hamlin and Elmes and maybe Hocking, Hiller, Wikus, Beaumount, Poke, Hartburn and Sicelo

Any chance Hak you can reverse you decision to only have the top team qualify. I reckon it would add a lot more to cup, if it was top two. One extra round can't make much difference.

Agreed.

Haha, AWTA barring Harris & Moloto tbh.

Top 1 it is, I've said so for ages.

I've decided that in group E there really is no obvious second team behind Whenuapai, so I'll go with the order out of the hat: first team 4, second team 3, third team 2, and fourth team 1 (since I want the seeded team to be 1 for clarity.)

The fixture list:

18th November: 2 v 1, 3 v 4.
25th November: 1 v 3, 4 v 2.
2nd December: 1 v 4, 2 v 3.

Thus, the first round of games:

Group A:
Viveash (793) vs Boggles (7145)
Male Models (648) vs Leverock CC (6550)

Group B:
Oceans XI (14267) vs Cymru Gurgitaters (3688)
Fishs XI (15945) vs Tawonga Tigers (4929)

Group C:
Magical Ponies (5409) vs Withington Wonderers (425)
Alternative XI (4412) vs oz fans XI (6232)

Group D:
yorkshire sixhitters (10033) vs Scaly Piscine CC (4132)
Dalmeny Cricket Club (1169) vs BEST Indies (3872)

Group E:
Kipper XI (4666) vs Whenuapai CC (1569) - declared draw
Jaffna Jets (2272) vs Dynamo Morpork (1837)

Group F:
caves_beachcc (5102) vs Asterix XI (1766)
Opening Balance (725) vs Victoria Panthers (5776)

Group G:
Tamil Eelam CC (9382) vs Four Pillars And Poor Fillers (4913)
Brackenhurst (5748) vs Saggers Mob (6473)

Group H:
Central Districts (6385) vs Jamees 999ers (3765)
Beard XI (10135) vs Clutha Valley CC (14468)

Same rules: home team challenges by midnight Friday, away team accepts by midday Saturday, otherwise it's a forfeit.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

I'm not there? Was I meant to confirm again or something?

I signed up earlier in the thread, but haven't been checking it much as there weren't any games on.

edit: Haha, I no-showed. Nevermind.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Big game first up, nervy.

 

[andruid]

wow am I gonna get my A**** handed to me

 

[Son Of Coco]

wow am I gonna get my A**** handed to me

I think our game may have been a good one to lose

 

[nibbs]

pleased to see that we've got kipper xi first up, which means if we're eliminated from the cup next monday we should still be able to win the group.

 

[cameeel]

Yes!

That means that I avoid the Nibbs juggernaut, right?

 

[nibbs]

it means we both take a point each from the fixture that cannot happen due to whenuapai's run to the nz bt cup quarter finals. we've got a tough match next monday, but one we can win if our bowlers do their job.

 

[bugssy]

Don't mean to be harsh or anything, but you would have no chance if it was even top 3.

sorry i didnt mean to offend ya or ya side, was just putting it in theory, i guess if it was top 3 i was buckleys as someone said, should i then just not bother at all.......if all teams are that good and mine is hardly at your teams standard........all in good fun i guess 4th spot is mine.

 

[chaminda_00]

Going to have to do it the hard way it seems. Hopefully Nibbs makes it the SFs so I get a draw from our fixture, if I read it right.

Challenge Hak.

I wounder who Mrs Mork will be rooting for during the match. We all know who she will be rooting after the match.

 

[Nate]

Challenged Pasagermobile.

 

[Nate]

P.S. Top 2 should qualify.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Correct.

BT down at present, will accept when (if) it starts again.

 

[mikeW]

Clapo challenge me already...
