Finding it tough to dislodge the openers of the TMOs.
16 overs of batting only for 57 runs.

Passmore has really stepped up to another level. Great all round performance from the TMOs. Thanks for the game. @SillyCowCorner1

Roger Attlee and Tharindu Santhiapillai are on the market for GG CC.
Over their careers in the GG CC setup, they've seen sparse time in the field...
Mooo have stepped in and bid on both of them, hoping to change the complexion of their outfit. New faces are welcomed.

All-round Eachann Evans leads Plymouth Pirates to convincing win
An impressive all-round display first with the ball and then with the bat ensured player of the match Eachann Evans helped @Marcuss affiliate Plymouth Pirates see off the challenge of @JOJOXI recently renamed Charminster CC.
Batting first after Plymouth Pirates won the toss and chose to bowl, Charminster CC got off to a quick start reaching 58/1 after the 6 over powerplay thanks to the aggression of opener Akal Keerat Bhambra (54 off 33). Despite the early dismissal of opener Drake Stevens in the third over for a run-a-ball 9, the first of Eachann Evan's five victims, Charminster CC found themselves well placed at the halfway point of the innings at 85/1. Bhambra's aggression was matched with the steady accumulation of young talent Will Fairhurst (31 off 36). 2 balls after the halfway mark Plymouth Pirates struck back with off-spinner Rashid Zakaria (2-36) clean bowling the dangerous Akal Keerat Bhambra. However, Ken Bush, captaining the side on debut, ensured Charminster CC kept up the momentum with a quick 20 off 13 balls leaving Charminster at 123/2 in the 15th over. However, Zakaria got his 2nd victim dismissing Will Fairhurst later in the 15th over. From a position of 130/3 after 15 overs Plymouth Pirates Cricket Ground witnessed an exhibition of death bowling as Plymouth Pirates picked up the final 7 wickets for 6 runs across 18 deliveries. Eachann Evans was the main beneficiary setting up the first half of his dominant display by ending the innings with bowling figures of 5/17. Meanwhile, Charminster CC were left wondering what might have been as they ended up all out for 142 in 19.4 overs.
In response, Charminster CC experienced early success, dismissing both openers inside the first 13 balls to leave Plymouth Pirates at 11/2. Firstly Fergie Leary had Mike Holroyd caught behind for 2 in the 2nd over before Liam Hones repeated the trick to have Connor Akers out for 1. However, what followed was the best partnership of the match in a third wicket stand of 116 in 70 balls as Eachann Evans (60 off 42) and Lucas Hegg (56 off 33) broke the back of the chase, scoring with ease. Indeed, it was only a run-out that saw the partnership broken, Scott Davis catching Eachann Evans short of his ground to leave Plymouth Pirates at 127/3 after 13.5 overs. Quick wickets followed as Craig Fahey and Liam Hones dismissed captain Lucas Hegg as well as new batsman Abrar Mustafa (6) in quick succession. However, it was a case of too little, too late as Plymouth Pirates eased to their target with 23 balls and 5 wickets to spare.

Our senior team - Winton CC got their first win in 12 attempts v Dynamo Morpork in a DEV friendly a couple hours ago. Hannan Jaffer with 3 wickets in the 7th over of Dynamo Morpork innings put them on the back foot and despite Menno Fouche seemingly batting on a different pitch with 55 off 45, we restricted them to 145-9 with a 113 ball 42 from Nishad Savundranayagam the only other major contributor with the bat.
In response Dynamo Morpork battled determinedly with leg-spinner Darren Hollioake dismissing Jacob West for 8 in the 9th over. Ralph Arnold and Tendai Mlaba then trapped captain Shamiso Luqe (26) and Rob Tweddle (15) each LBW respectively. With 69 needed off 113 balls on a tricky pitch there was a slim hope of a Dynamo Morpork great escape. However, Bernard Mayer came in and hit 60 not out off 43 balls to ensure we won with 51 balls and 7 wickets to spare
Thank you for the games @Marcuss and @Magrat Garlick
Currently, Charminster CC are having a late night 50 over match v Free HK. Its fair to say my batters are struggling to score quickly against superior opposition. Currently 48/2 after 20.4 overs. Hoping we can bat the 50 overs at the least - the sort of innings where if we keep our head maybe we could eek out a score of 170/180. On the other hand, we could lose all composure and end up 75 all out.

Good couple of wins for FHK overnight. In hindsight I could have put out a weaker XI vs Charminster CC. That AXI chase was wonderful tho, everyone getting a score. Tiffany Yuen as an opener on dry tracks is worth trying more often.
Some important SOD League games today, and International cricket resumes tomorrow! BD vs NZ on what seems like a dog of a pitch, temptation is to stack the batting.

Solid 61 run win for ZCC in the SOD League today, beating the team ranked right next to us in the table! 62k ratings for both of us, playing away from home. Won a crucial toss, and centuries from Heshan and Shahbaz took us to 293 after we lost Sajith on the 3rd ball! Runs on the board did it for us, even tho we didn't bowl as well as they did we shut them down and got the win.
Not sure if we secured the bonus point, but we had them 106/6 before they fought back with a very strong 7th wicket partnership. The bright side of this win is we did it with Tim Chester and Jamal Madani in the team. Valuable IGT for the two of them! They both didn't play well either - 2 ball duck and 0/51 in 8 - so getting the W despite that is very pleasing.
