ICC Sim League IX

[jimmy101]

And R1 wraps in up spectacular fashion with a scintillating knock from Bobby Simpson (!). Another over from Venkat might have made the difference for the Silver Stars who were impressive on their first time out.

 

[honestbharani]

Amazing knock by Chappelli only to be upstaged by Simpson. And funny how Chappell put himself on for an over taking away from Venkat, given how much he used to rate the Indian quartet.

Definitely a random move from Chapelli.

Man of the match: Ian Botham

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Dismal chase. Gonna be a long season.

Ducks for both Greenidge and Botham though, scenes.

 

[jimmy101]

Woolmer & Traicos almost pulling off the unlikeliest of wins there. The AI doesn't seem like Traicos much, sorry Magrat.

Round 2

Terrific Unnamed vs Charter 77 - Manuka Oval, Canberra

Charter 77

Terrific Unnamed

Terrific Unnamed won by 8 wickets

Man of the match Eddie Barlow

 

[jimmy101]

Charter 77 are a better team than this. I'm sure they'll be very disappointed with their start to this tournament.

Currently waiting on morgieb, Howe & SCC to post their R2 team lineups.

 

[honestbharani]

hahaha.. someone asked why is Eddie Barlow bowling, right?

 

[jimmy101]

Barlow has to be on track for man of the tournament so far. Hopefully I didn't just jinx him.

 

[morgieb]

Unchanged.

What a knock from Simmo!

Round 2

Honest Hunks v MCB Golden Boys - WACA Ground, Perth

MCB Golden Boys

Honest Hunks

Honest Hunks won by 1 wicket

Man of the match: Richard Hadlee

 

[jimmy101]

Great match. We'll be lucky to see a closer match than this for the rest of the tourney. Simmo in amazing touch at the moment, but its Sir Richard Haldee's all-round prowess that steers the Hunks home.

 

[jimmy101]

Absolute pandemonium in that final over!

 

[honestbharani]

Bruce Yardley Guess going for h4x batting did help after all. Disappointed with the top and middle order batting though.

 

[morgieb]

Bruce Yardley pulling a Carlos Braithwaite? FFS.

I'll go Unchanged again.

 

[AndrewB]

Absolute pandemonium in that final over!

I’ve probably asked this before, but what does ! indicate here?

 

[honestbharani]

An edge or a chance. Not in control of the shot...


Basically Yardley did to the Golden Boys what Shardul Thakur did to SRH in 2018 IPL qualifier.
