Great partnership but fell just short. The openers wasted the first two overs which only went for 8 runs. If they had been explosive from the start I probably would have won but I'm still happy with that performance even if it was a loss.

Haha, wtf. I looked at a few games before opening this thread, seems like 250 is about par.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I lost after setting 253. Dire.

 

[bugssy]

I lost after setting 253. Dire.

bugger that would hurt!

 

[Agent TBY]

Haha wtf.

Mohammed went from:

Mohammed* 74 (38 balls)

to

Mohammed 163 (61 balls)

 

[chaminda_00]

FFS they scored 24 straight fours in the last four overs. We had them in trouble struggling to score at 6-7 an over then that happened. They only set us 222, which seems 50 short of a decent total in Twenty20, so we should win from here.

End of Over 20: 221-5, runrate=11.05
Sishayi 4-0-41-0
Ziyardeen* 71 (22 balls)
Saint 50 (16 balls)

Last Wicket: Croft c. Clayton b. Muralitharan 1 (FOW: 110/5)


I do expect this whole thing to be canned in 1...2...3... you can't hit that many staright fours and its happened in most matches. I guess its even for all teams though.

16.6 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	What a stunner! That one went all the way!
And that's a century for Rampaul! Well played indeed Sir!
16.5 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	Good line and length from Islam but Rampaul has come charging down the pitch and reaches it on the half volley. A big swing and the ball is out of the park.
16.5 	nb6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	no ball, That ball went so high it could have got an air hostess down with it, super shot that, six runs to Rampaul.
16.4 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	Rampaul has stepped across his stumps and spooned it over the keeper's head.
16.3 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	Rampaul has walked down the wicket and swatted it over the long mid wicket boundary for a massive six.
16.2 	lb4	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	Four more to the total.
16.1 	1	Islam to Alshaun
 	 	That's the way Alshaun, rotate the strike.

End of Over 16: 146-9, runrate=9.13, reqrunrate=22.75 (236-5)
Barton	3-0-24-0
Alshaun*	12 (7 balls)
Rampaul	73 (35 balls)

Okay then.

They might actually win this!

EDIT: WTF, this is the over after the one I pasted:

End of Over 18: 213-9, runrate=11.83, reqrunrate=12.00 (236-5)
Barton	4-0-55-0
Alshaun*	14 (9 balls)
Rampaul	133 (46 balls)
Last Wicket: Masilo lbw b. Malik 0 (FOW: 104/9)
17.6 	6	Barton to Rampaul
 	 	Down on one knee and he slog-sweeps into the crowd. Top shot.
17.5 	6	Barton to Rampaul
 	 	Planted his front foot to the pitch of the ball, and swept it magnificently over midwicket.
17.4 	6	Barton to Rampaul
 	 	Short ball is picked up just over the rope at deep backward square.
17.3 	6	Barton to Rampaul
 	 	SIX! Good shot! Tossed up outside off stump, Rampaul lofts it well over the long on fence.
17.2 	6	Barton to Rampaul
 	 	Two steps down the pitch, a big swing of the arms and the ball is sent packing back over Barton's head!
17.1 	1	Barton to Alshaun
 	 	Played into the ground as they scramble for the single, cover quick to field but Alshaun made his ground.

EDIT AGAIN: They won.

18.5 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	Oh what a shot! He'll put an eye out with rockets like that. Look out below, that's six all the way!
18.4 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	Rampaul has gone the tonk with that one - straight over long off for six.
Thats his 150. A fine knock.
18.3 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	A rank delivery from Islam gets what it deserves: short and wide it's launched away over long off for six runs.
18.2 	6	Islam to Rampaul
 	 	He's gone for the big one...and gets it!
18.1 	1	Islam to Alshaun
 	 	Neatly turned to fine leg for a single.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Hahahahah ffs, that's beyond ridiculous.

 

[Agent TBY]

Hahahahah ffs, that's beyond ridiculous.

I hope you noticed they were 9-down.

 

[bugssy]

ouchies

 

[CricketFanAA]

At least it was the batsmen that smacked it, and not the bowler (who was knocking ones).

That's gottta hurt though. When I was bowling, last 4 overs had 5 fours and 1 single in each over

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

Good to see 20/20 is just as laughable on battrick as it is in real life. Lost my game by 32 runs, scoring 248 in the chase. Seem insane? Well the team batting first scored 280 without the loss of a wicket in their 20 overs. I managed 4/248 in reply, with Camilleri easing his way to 121* off 47 balls.

His batsmen made 115* off 64 and 159* off 56...

edit: hahaha okay, seems like this is about par for the course after reading other posts.

 

[PY]

Hahahaha this is quality!

93 off 3 overs?!?!

I won my game but this is a goner IMO, par scores being over 250 is stupid.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Just spent 300k upgrading my academy from worthless (H) to superb.

Hopefully it pays off early next season.
