Well, I've been offered a rookie deal here and am happy to be on board.

I now have no idea at all what happens next, so bear with me while I get up to speed.

Anyway, hope to make some contribution to Black.

Batsmen
DP Smith (c) [3/5]
AP Cloete [1/5] [cc]
AP Chaulk [2/5] [cc]
GAJ Armstrong [1/3]
DG Speirs [1/1]
AJ Blackman [3/4]
JE Stedman [3/4] [cc]

All-rounders
ZE Gelman [3/3]
CR Burge [R/1]
BC Donald [2/2]

Bowlers
NS Pickup [3/5] [cc]
KJ Gough [1/3] [cc]
DP Richards [3/4] [sc]
NL Patrick [1/4]
HT Davis [1/1]
NA Borcich [2/4] [sc]

We lost Roberts (our third spinner) Arnold (massive loss, hopefully Stedders can step in) and Congdon (but he was never coming back anyway).

We lack a backup keeper (I'm currently doing the duties) and a backup spinner. Having the two best spinners in the country helps though.

Reckon i should be classed as an AR to be honest

bc i'm bored at work i tried to work out my averages over the recent past

Found stats from the end of Season XI...so

Since then IICC

FC
3330runs@42.15 - 18 50's 4 Hundreds
194W@28.3

OD
565@33.2
59W@30.64

Love the fact that the English can't play OD cricket so my recent 1 day stats actually look decent due to my stints in county cricket.

I averaged about 6 with the bat in the off season. I know that's not All Rounder material for the Mighty Blacks, but I reckon with that form behind me, I could open the batting for the Colts.

I don't think Kyle actually knows who in the team anymore, been that long since he actually captained the side.

Since we changed from Forum member names to real names, been confused quite often.

At least I still play...:p

And have the guts to order something other than bangers and mash.

Well, Vooooooltago joins the Blacks. He'd better not cost me any potential place that I may have had in the First Class eleven, mind...

Mat Smith appears to be a strange choice.

Bad for myself and Heathster as well will see fewer than our normal number of FC games (which is approx very little).

If Smith takes Goughs place then Gough to piss in Smiths shampoo bottle. :-O
