Good enough for me, Gundry Cup officially overthrown.

Preliminary rankings (the first 8) determined using the Darren Murphy Random Number Generator, but the results of today's matches will be counted (I haven't checked them yet) so they'll change in a minute. Anyone who wants in add your team name. Anyone who wants out remove your team name.

1. Central Districts
2. caves_beachcc
3. Male Models
4. Asterix XI
5. Zero Pillars and Hero Fillers
6. Wheelabarrowback
7. Otago
8. The Winners
9. [Hakon's team]
10.Saggers Mob
11.
12.
13.
14.
etc

I'll add some rules later.

Dont worry about me, im quitting this ****ing game.

End of over 50 (10 runs) - Wheelabarrowback(258-5) RR 5.16
Sarra 94 (104b), Waters 23 (28b), Aysha 9.2-0-56-1
That is the 50 partnership
49.2 6 Aysha to Sarra : That's gone like a tracer bullet over the fence at extra cover.
49.1 4 Aysha to Sarra : Pushes it through a bit too wide and Sarra reaches out, slapping it past gully.
End of over 49 (1 runs) - Wheelabarrowback(248-5). 9 runs required from 1 overs. RR 5.06 RRR 9.00
Waters 23 (28b), Sarra 84 (102b), Ramachandra 10-0-40-4

Haha, the close finishes I've seen so far have been 2 runs off 6 balls needing 4, or similar. Clearly you drew the short straw.

The Winners defeated Central Districts by 3 wickets

Asterix XI defeated Otago by 26 runs
Wheelabarrowback defeated Zero Pillars and Poor Fillers by 5 wickets
caves_beachcc defeated Male Models by 2 runs

New rankings are:

1. The Winners
2. caves_beachcc
3. Male Models
4. Asterix XI
5. Wheelbarrowback
6. Zero Pillars and Hero Fillers
7. Otago
8. Central Districts
9. [Hakon's team]
10.Saggers Mob
11.Jaffna Jets
12.
13.
14.
etc

Rules:

1. Each team must play at least one friendly a week. There are two friendly slots per week (I think) so you can play more if you wish, but you don't have to.
2. You can challenge any team up to three places higher than your own.
3. You can't play a higher-ranked team for more than two consecutive matches (unless you're last).
4. You can't play the same team in consecutive matches.
5. If any of the above rules are breached you drop, say, four places.

I have no idea if that will work or not, as obviously not everyone is going to be able to play a higher-ranked team. Amendments to the rules by people smarter than me are welcome. Exceptions to the above rules are made for friendlies already arranged for next week (those results will stand regardless of current rankings) and if there is an odd number of teams (although with two friendlies per week that shouldn't be a problem either). The winner will be whoever's in first after the last friendly of the season (or whenever we decide to stop).

What does last get?

Jaffna Jets should be in too i guess.

Shotgun Otago.

Would also like my 52-run thumping of the non-pillared side (22879) to count, but I'll get up the rankings somehow anyway.

My team name is the same as BT. Dynamo Morpork.

I'll take Dwyer. Challenge me you ****.

Bowling first.

End of over 28 (2 runs) - Wolston Warriors(121-6) RR 4.32
Loader 0 (2b), Hodgetts 32 (50b), Huntington 9-0-41-2

(Y)

im batting first, and off to a pretty good start!

End of over 40 (9 runs) - caves_beachcc(237-5) RR 5.92
Lansdown 39 (32b), Nelson 2 (2b), Ali 10-1-76-1

End of over 41 (11 runs) - Wolston Warriors(187-6) RR 4.56
Loader 31 (43b), Hodgetts 59 (94b), Mackay 6-0-29-0

Keeping them under wraps.

I actually agree with Adam's thing. I felt so bad when Tharmi was saying that he wanted to be in the cup.

Ok, look Adam you run it, cause clearly i don't have a ****ing clue.

End of over 33 (9 runs) - Pomtastic(178-8). 127 runs required from 17 overs. RR 5.39 RRR 7.47
Mohammad 10 (11b), Khokhar 17 (16b), Thamm 7-0-48-0

Made 318 batting first, first time with proper orders. Have Hallstars at 6/155 after 34 overs.

Someone challenge me btw.

I'll play you Zeg? See i'm challenging him not the other way around. So will that be ok Adam?

Yeah, go for it.

Gunning for my fifth consecutive win, should be straightforward from here:

End of over 37 (6 runs) - Advanx Aardvarx(125-7). 132 runs required from 13 overs. RR 3.38 RRR 10.15
Friedrich 27 (52b), Marsh 20 (33b), Alfred 9-1-21-1

Made 256/8 thanks mainly to Alfred's 100 off 123. He's my best young prospect, 18yo ordinary bat/ordinary bowl/reasonable technique. Not sure whether to train him as a batsman or a bowler, don't really want to train as an allrounder as it's too slow.

Accepted.

Won my one-day game by 75 runs.

http://www.fromthepavilion.org/game/scorecard.htm?gameId=21532, if that works.

Surprisingly won my One Day match by 64 runs after an amazing innings from Vijaysharee 67 (117). Match-winner and officially my best friend.

3,333rd post btw.

Pretty even so far...

End of over 10 (4 runs) - Sinhala Ranaweera(46-0). 178 runs required from 40 overs. RR 4.60 RRR 4.45
Irandika 24 (38b), Ramanathan 21 (22b), van der Straaten 5-0-33-0

I'm sorry for the mix-up by the way Tharmi.
