  • Yeah not too bad. Not a stunner, but not bad. She another girl you're stalking, or do you actually have a chance with this one?
    Not sure what competition that'd be, as there's not really a set competition that's 1 stage before County. Lancashire League cricket's supposed to be of very high standard though, with County professionals often turning out for those sides. Jimmy Anderson for example was spotted playing for Burnley and a year or so later he was playing for Lancashire. If you wanna play decent standard in England, then Lancashire league's the place to go I'd say.
    Oh yeah, the pitches are horrible round here. They're effectively uncovered pitches, and if they have covering it's of very poor standard. I think I've played on 2 surfaces in 3 years that had any notable pace or bounce. Not only hard work for batsmen, but the bowlers too, there's not much in it at all. Just requires patience really, that's why you see the old fellas that waddle in and bowl wicket to wicket medium pace picking up heaps of wickets.
    Well the A Team standard is a lot better. The B Team play in Section D, playing against most team's 3rd XI's, whilst the A team play in Section A. Playing that standard of cricket would be nice. I've played Suffolk Premier League, and my bowling was certainly good enough for that standard, though I didn't get many overs, as in both PL games I played, we fielded last defending not much more than 100 haha.
    I was actually the 4th leading wicket-taker in Section D last year too, which I'm pretty happy with considering I had a spell of about 4 games where I bowled terribly, down on pace due to a groin injury and failed to pick up a wicket. I was 8 wickets behind the bloke that came top of the list, I'm hoping to get much closer to the top of that list this year, that's if I don't end up playing A Team cricket.
    Cheers, most of the bowlers in my league are slow enough for the keeper to stand-up, so if you're consistently batting outside your crease, the keeper'll just stand up. Only really the openers from most sides that bowl quick enough that the keeper has to stay back. I'm sure you would be Bradman-esque in my league, the standard, of the B Team cricketers anyway is generally pretty low. With my average of 15 for the B Team I was 5th on the batting averages and runs scored. We're terrible, think our highest opening partnership is something like 27 :L.
    Not started yet.

    Last season: 133 runs at 12.09 + 16 wickets at 25.25 with a best of 5/61.

    Want 300 runs this year and 25 wickets.
    Ben, I deleted your post in the Forum Demographics -Banned thread because there's no point in bringing up the whole situation again. If you want to post what happened again but in a more level-headed way that's fine, but please don't try to get a shot or two in at other posters or the mod team while you do it.
    Take Khawaja out of the NSW 2nd XI and you've got the same thing. The Hampshire bowling attack's far better also. Kabir Ali, Simon Jones, Dominic Cork, Dimi Mascarenhas and Ajantha Mendis is a very good bowling attack, much better than that NSW 2nd XI attack.
    My County Side's Strongest XI isn't bad either:

    Michael Carberry
    Neil McKenzie
    Michael Lumb
    Kevin Pietersen
    James Vince
    Dimitri Mascarenhas
    Nic Pothas
    Dominic Cork
    Kabir Ali
    Ajantha Mendis
    Simon Jones
    Watson opening in place of Jaques tbh, but apart from that it's probably about as strong as the England side. Pretty impressive that.
    I think you'll find Flintoff played six Tests in Australia.

    Alas, Andrew Flintoff played in three Ashes series, and won two of them. So nevermind hey. Dire sig tbh.
