Someone needs to score big here (The Prince)

Surely the match of the tournament so far. Heartbreak for poor old Graeme Hick, whilst Goughy's injury looked set to sink England but Devon Malcolm & Athers stepped up to the plate with ball in hand. England just couldn't find enough runs in the end.
Well played L&L, you took a team which was probably outside of the top 4 on raw numbers & guided them to a well earned semis berth.

More about Bourda:
“Quintessentially, Caribbean test venues are very similar, but you do know when you are at one and not the other, whether because of the crowd, the food, the beer, the music, or backdrop. When you are in Bourda Oval however you do know you are not at an island venue, and when you take in the full picture of following the game to South America, you should be pleased you've come here and not just Barbados or Antigua.
'Bourda' as it is shortened to, only holds 8000, so even with what we would call a small crowd by Australian standards, this crowd was large. The rickety wooden stands rise high over the ground, putting you on top of the action. An open terrace runs the full length of Eastern side and is home to the first scoreboard I have ever seen that displays each team's 1st & 2nd inning batting scores for the entire game; never do you have to 'recall' how many runs Steve Waugh got in the 1st inning! This vast terrace is met at the North end by the Media Centre and Lance Gibbs Stand, and the South end by the Rohan Kanhai Stand. Kenny Wishart and Clive Lloyd stands are on the Western side with the Laparkan Stand, a small high rise, wedged between Clive and Lance.”

Australia At Bourda Oval
Guyana may not be in the Caribbean that we dream or expect, and though being a South American nation that excels at cricket, the Guyanese know how to celebrate the great game just as West Indian 'islanders' do.

Coming soon...
World Test Championship 2005
New features designed to enhance realism & intractability include...
Injuries
Injuries will once again factor in the next edition of the tournament. This will coincide with an expanded squad size of 18, along with a new rule which states that each team must pick two full-time wicketkeepers in their squad.
Form
Yes, for the first time ever form will be a feature in Sim League history thanks to the awesome player editor designed for CC '18 by weetbixharry. Each player will enter the tournament with a baseline form value & the form gained or lost from match play will be recorded after each round & applied to each player before the beginning of the next.
Expanded player pool
As usual, players active in 2005 at Test level will be available as well as with players which had previously made their Test debut & went on to play Test cricket after 2005. Moreover, players which were selected in Test match squads, home or touring, will also be eligible, along with players selected in Test squads during or before 2005 that went on to debut post-2005 & players which played their final Test prior to 2005, but were selected in a Test match squad during or after 2005. This gives participants the unique opportunity to change the course of history by handing young talent their Test debut earlier than IRL, or even granting an old stalwart a comeback opportunity.
Reservations welcome
