My league is pretty close as well, 1st is 5-1, three teams 4-2 and two 3-3. I'm fifth after being first two weeks ago, sucks.

 

[NZTailender]

I'm last. Haven't won a match. What goes up must come down and all that, after being undefeated last season...

 

[CricketFanAA]

It's a two team comp in my division.

My team and the other team are both 6-0, the other team has N/R 18.74, and mine is 16-odd.

 

[headhunter]

Two team league for me too and 5 other teams all tight.

Dwyer doing very well in our friendly so far. He succeeded in getting Gray and Bhutia out early, but Houlihan has grafted his way to 38* (58).

End of Over 36: 197-3, runrate=5.47
Carr 5-0-22-0
Mcmillan* 105 (99 balls)
Houlihan 38 (58 balls)
Last Wicket: Wolfenden b. Wikus 18 (FOW: 106/3)

Registered my first win of the OD season on Friday. Epic match.

Galston Grogmonsters 270/3 (50 overs)
Leacock 126 (132), Sheppard 90 (132), Hindle 2/37 (10)

lost to

Brackenhurst 271/3 (46.1 overs)
Burnip 127 (121), Abbey 112 (121), Downing 2/49 (8.1)

Massive 230-run partnership with Abbey and Burnip. Burnip`s score was his maiden century and the highest ever score for Hurst. Good times.

Just did a full ITS YP, I don't really have nets free but I could squeeze out 1 at the moment and a second in a few weeks, should I? I need batting depth pretty badly.

EDIT2: Adding, I really want a destructive bat as well. I could do with another million in $$$ though. I guess another batsman is more important.

If you've got net space and you need batting depth, then yeah, you should definitely train him.

And that's the end of the match. Anchormen won by 121 runs.
Anchormen	303-5
Four Pillars and Poor Fillers	182-10

No surprise really, Hocking stayed unbeaten on 52, never had a chance.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Struggled with the bat a little against Clapham (great to see Keane make a score opening the innings, hopefully he can become a full time opener).

And that's the end of the match. Central Districts won by 35 runs.
Central Districts	248-9
Clapo's XI	213-10

Despite a good innings from Ludlow, Clapham was never in the race.

I would wait until your current players stamina has improved so you have a couple free nets to put on your trainee. Might as get your current players to a decent level and say up to 100 ITS for next season.

 

[Robertinho]

Won by 121 runs, as Dwyer said. Interesting ratings

Anchormen
Top Order: sensational
Middle Order: feeble
Lower Order: worthless
Seam Bowling: strong
Spin Bowling: exceptional
Fielding: feeble

By the way, how much do people think this guy could go for?

[Nate]

I`m "special" when it comes to ITS and such. I think I`ve got 19 ITS sessions to use. How should I allocate them? Should I use all of them?

[NZTailender]

Playing Altoz in an interesting friendly. I bought basically 9 mediocre players since I have no hope this season and may as well play them plus my comp backup players and rest my main guys.

Altz set a crazy batting and bowling order.
End of Over 14: 97-1, runrate=6.93, reqrunrate=5.83 (306-4)
Mpho 2-0-25-0
Rhodes* 49 (45 balls)

Last Wicket: Mcghee c & b. Watts 0 (FOW: 2/1)

Wonder if we can chase down 306...
