Injury Update

Terrible news for inform Colts fast bowler Thad Bochat, scans have revealed a slight hamstring tear meaning he will be out of action for 9 days, his first game back available for selection will be the first class fixture on Tuesday 23rd February at Red.

Red had some bad news of their own today too, in form middle order batsman John Heads suffered a bruised ankle and will miss 6 days. His first match back will be the First Class game against Blue on Wednesday 17th or the following day for Cricketweb 'A' against England if he gains selection in that team.

A good team win to get us back on track.

Spewin @ injury

 

[99*]

Yes! First class hundred #1. Dodged the axe for now as well.

 

[David]

Well, a lucky break for us there. Very unconvincing though.

 

[Athlai]

Kears a hero for us there, very dissappointed with myself.

 

[Majin]

Gutted about Thad's injury, was just starting to prove what he can do. Great win for us there though. Towns needs to **** off back to #4 though, not impressed

Very, very strange that we didn't declare. But a top performance from Blax anyhow, dominated that.

Lol I can't win with these declarations. IMO the way Black have been travelling it was the right move, avoid losing first then win. You still had 110 overs to bowl them out, had it been to much earlier it would have been a very gettable target of something like 450 in 125 overs.

And this is where we disagree.

Bad luck, submit some tactics via email and then you can make the declaration decisions etc...

Another dissapointing and dull match from the Reds Happy to top score in both digs, but things just arent clicking this season in the Red camp.

EDIT: Was actually my 200th FC Game, pretty happy with that effort, one of the old boys now

 

[NZTailender]

Good win. Not great, but good. We were definitely the better team for the first half of the match, then Langley played a brilliant knock and we lost 5 wickets chasing a small score. Overall, that's not a bad thing with continuing promise from quite a few players.

Gutted about Thad's injury! He's been great so far this season. Good to see Weber back in the wickets, too.

212th actually. You may not be counting off season cricket plus tour games in NZ that werent updated in the stats threads.

 

[kears_falcon_9]

Fair call, havnt updated since last season, and only just started adding in this years stats, so yer looks like ive missed the off season.

 

[Paid The Umpire]

Some high quality batting by Kennett!!!

D.M. Kennett not out 0 85 0 0

Wow high scoring?

 

[nightprowler10]

Somebody shoot me and use me for glue. I'm ****ing done.

 

[AUST_HiTMaN]

Lucky to escape with a draw there Reds. Top showing from DK and Kears. Also Dauth getting runs in the first dig is pleasing.

Personally I wouldn't mind turning some batting form into wicket taking.

 

[superkingdave]

Deflating finale for us.

Seem to be going ok with the bat, have dropped of alarmingly with the ball last few games.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

haha, Kennett the draw machine

 

[Loony BoB]

Nice one. Was looking at the OD game where I hit 48 and thought "Yet again back to old habits of never quite reaching 50" and then I saw the next game...

Gutted for Bochat, hope he finds a way to get back sooner but I don't think the simming Gods allow for that kind of realism just yet.
