Little bit of a scare near the end for Morpork but ultimately easily done... Congrats @Magrat Garlick

Always the bridesmaid .....
Buy Ins were rather like Mel Gibson's Braveheart today...... a lot of honour and glory , blood and guts but we still ended up dead!
Free HK has a very strong, consistent batting line up and Jura were lucky to come away with a point in the end. The Buy Ins probably would have taken a point before starting against ZCC (who wouldn't?) but when the ME starts teasing you into believing (even when you shouldn't) you do come away a little empty (despite ZCC's excellent cream teas!)
Thanks for the games maestro!

Guys
Just to give you an early heads up (in case you are interested) I am about to put Luke Sidebottom (Jura CC) on the market. I have revealed him. He is basically a bowler 34/44 aged 20 and 1 week. I have been tracking him and i reckon his bowling is due a pop or 2 in movement and variation (based on prior pops for him and compared to others of same age and matches) in the next week or 2
However I have too many bowlers chasing coaching and selection - I have bowlers of his pace a year above and below as well as a spinner of the same age- so he is going to have to go so that IGT and coaching can be better shared.
He has some decent SS ability with the bat , stamina good, fielding poor. Will probably put him up this weekend.
Appreciate your thoughts on a starting price and potential sales price in general ? (dont worry that does not commit you to them! just for my mind when i put him to the market)
Cheers

Thundayal with a thunderous 56 off 136 balls.
Excellent in negating the new ball threat of Babar Ijaz and Alex Xenos.
Then Ncanana came in and blasted 57 off 59.

Ironically this is some of the most aggressive battings orders I`ve ever set... (at least in recent times).

I think it was good on Thundayal to assess the wicket and bat accordingly...He just did his best Gavaskar.
We just lost Levy, and I am banking on Jardine and D Souza to take us home here.

I think its probably 30 or 40 runs short... Thundayal was just a little to defensive. We shall see. Well on top of the rate here is GG.

Moooo
"Little too defensive" is an understatement. He possesses some Kraigg Brathwaiteesque concentration.
Yeah, our boys are bossing the chase right now...went unconventional and gave RDV the license to attack

I had an offer at my starting reveal of 20k so he is now up for sale

Has a feel of Damien Martyn and Ricky Ponting, circa 2003
