Stumped!

welp. The Run Out Gods got us past Cup Round 2, but they've come back to bite us today. Both Shahbaz and Sajith run-out after we elected to bat first upon winning the toss. Heshan and Raun fall cheaply too, we're now 63/4 and going to really struggle to put a reasonable score on the board. Big innings needed from Ahsan, Yattack, Jalal, Zahid and Hadden.

my oppo is playing a full U22 squad that rates 58k, now that's a rebuild

meanwhile the unbeaten league leaders have slumped to 55 for five. Gonna be very very close.

3 run-outs in the top 6. Bleh. Not our day.

Really needed this win too. Chingford are 3 for 3, we've just got the 1 win. Winning this would have given us some breathing room. We've got a slight rating edge and are playing at home too. In hindsight, we should have bowled first. Standard practice is to chase, but we've had some success setting scores lately so I thought I'd try that again. Now we're going to be bowled out for ~150 and they'll cruise this.

(my oppo caught the same runout bug)
 
Moo are punching above their weight once again. In pursuit of 202, we are already 165/2 in the 31st over. An excellent 3rd wicket partnership between Bernstein and Warfield

my teams weren't done with dramatic finishes in low scoring game, Schmaltzberg took their first D2 win by three runs defending 168 for six

incredibly they were 68 for four at the halfway stage so you could argue we let them off the hook
 
It's just about an hour away from Mooo's clash with Winton CC at the MCG.

It's quite windy at the moment...winds topping at 100 mph, so it'll be a concern for the bowlers. I expect a lot of extras in the form of wides. The keepers from both sides will have to bring their A-game into this match.
 
So we are going to be batting first on this track. Runs on the board here will be key...hoping the winds die down in the second half of this game.

Looking to get around 250. Defendable.

Big wins for the Astronauts and Winton CC in CWC4 Div 2 today! Points table is shaping up nicely.

FHK vs ZCC in CWC Div 1 today. Going to be really tough for FHK. They're struggling as it is, now they need to take points off an unbeaten side to maintain 2nd place.

Geez, not a good day for AX batters. Glad I wasn't around to watch it live.

Chunky casually getting 4-9 and 54* against AX-W. IMO get him to bowl 10 overs @honestbharani. And maybe chuck Paul Salt out of the side...
