Round 4 in the All Star Series was run today, as the table starts to take a bit of shape with only 2 rounds left before the finals..
United Kingdom vs Rest of the World
Oceania vs Academy
Post your Round 5 teams now, and remember all players must play 2 games before the finals to be eligible for your team to play in the BIG ONE...

Quote from Agemaster before the All Star series:
should be a tight contest for the win in both forms between Oceania and ROW with the acadamy a chance of upsetting the UK side to avoid the wooden spoon :P
the ROW squads should be finalised inside the next week - the delay ofcourse due to the overwhelming abundance of talent within the different teams...
Quote from Slats4ever before the All Star series:
The ROW boys have made their intentions clear, they wanna white wash this series. They don't want to lose one game. This is a tough ask especially against the Down under boys. The feeling is that the UK boys willl be the push overs of the tournament, and the Academy side should be easy pickings to! However it's the Down Under boys where the most fun will happen.
It's quite obvious the poor pommie boys have little depth. They will be easy beats, I'm willing to bet some direct debited accounts with anyone that the uk boys will finish last
NEVER underestimate the UK side. NEVER!!!

wanna try playing us on a spin friendly pitch... this pitch suited your team more than any other in the competition, and was least suitable for our team (also im terms of playing all our players in 2 games... anyways still 2 games to go

You're right that there are still 2 games to go, but I'm surprised you're being such a bad loser there mate! D.Kaneria and P.Adams will have a chance to show their wares as our spinners in the last game on a spinner friendly wicket (shame it's not against ROW!)
I might still have to eat humble pie yet - we'll see!

Round 5 of the all star series has been run today with a major traffic jam at the top of the OD table, it will all come down to the last game to decide who makes the final...
Todays games are as follows:
Oceania vs United Kingdom
Academy vs Rest of the World
Please post Round 6 teams ASAP, also remember this is your last chance to make sure all your players have played 2 games, if they haven't played 2 games after this match then you will not be eligible for the final..

Nibblet - you were to post the teams for the home games and I was to do the away games. As the final game is away I'll post the team. Hope you don't mind.
Marc - thanks for your kind comments. Hope they're not premature though. For poor old Agemaster's sake, let's hope that ROW win their final game!

Well The qualifying rounds are finally over...
Some good games to finish us off before the finals..
Only the Academy team failed to meet the qualifying standards, however they were never in the hunt for a finals spot anyway.
The results as follows
Academy vs United Kingdom
Rest of the World vs Oceania
and the final table
Table
The top 2 will play off in the final and the bottom 2 playoff with both games to be run Thursday afternoon so post teams ASAP...

looks like i underestimeted the UK side (again) and overestimated the ROW side. the pitch should make the game fairly even.good luck for the final
