Bit annoyed about Burger getting out, it would've been his first fifty. Still, happy with that win for a TIE.

42.1 	W	Deane to Beaumont
 	 	He's gone for the big heave, but it's gone way up in the air. Osman gets himself underneath it and pockets the chance with glee. Out!

Last Wicket: Johnson c. Colley b. Hodge 0 (FOW: 159/4)

Very nervous here, if i lose, my season is over. Naylor needs to keep his not out streak going.

EDIT:

****ING ****


42.2 W Deane to Naylor
Big inswinging yorker crashes into his pads. Massive appeal and given!

Another close loss in a game i should have won.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

You haven't lost yet, but if you do, it's not your batsmen, it's your bowlers, dead set. Been watching it all day and they had them 6 for less than 100. You should never make 200 from for 90-odd, especially in battrick. You need another bowler or two.

EDIT: I reckon you'll win, personally. Allison will carry you home, you only need about 10.

 

[Dr_Brad]

I'm nervous i need 50 more runz with 1 wicket to spare

tbh, my bowlers did their work, it was the other crap i have bowling that couldnt finish the job.

6 to win with 4 wickets, 3 wickets in hand. Am going to cry if/when i lose.

Edit: 5 to win with 2 wickets in hand, please do this for me allison

EDIT2:

46.2 1 Deane to Allison
Allison picks up a quick single, pushing the ball firmly to mid-wicket. Good running.

Good decision.

And that's the end of the match. Sponges won by 3 runs.
Sponges 205-10
Four Pillars and Poor Fillers 202-10

Ratings will be even funnier.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Your ratings are ridiculously misleading anyway, so whatever. Remarkable spin my ass, I've got a better spin attack than you and I get strong/superb. Still surprised you didn't win, mind.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

And that's the end of the match. Central Districts won by 57 runs.
Central Districts	301-10
29Xl	                244-10
 
Hodge	8.4-1-55-6

Hodge took some stick, expecially early on from his guns, but got rid of one of them then cleaned out the middle and lower order for the poles he deserved.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

		Central Districts  	29Xl
Top Order: 	strong 			quality
Middle Order: 	competent 		competent
Lower Order: 	abysmal 		worthless
Seam Bowling: 	proficient 		proficient
Spin Bowling: 	quality 		abysmal
Fielding: 	feeble 			feeble

Pretty happy with those ratings on a GFI. Means I'm pretty close to upping my ratings in top order, seam and spin.

Jazz Men vs Anchormen (Toss: Jazz Men)

Anchormen 7/293 from 50 overs
Mcmillan 136 (135)
Gray 80 (90)
Bhutia 34* (26)
Hardiker 4/63 (10.0)

Mcmillan 3/14 (5.0)
Ralph 3/28 (10.0)
Mulholland 2/38 (7.3)
Payton 2/42 (8.0)

Result: Anchormen wins by 144 runs.
MotM: Mcmillan (136 & 3/14)

Pretty comfortably win on a TIE there. I'm a bit worried that we didn't get them out more cheaply - Ralph should've taken a 5-for. Gray took 2 catches and made 3 stumpings which leaves him with 150 career catches, along with 23 stumpings. Otherwise, good stuff from Mcmillan, who has now passed with 150 wicket mark with 151 wickets @ 14.26. Middle order dropped to mediocre because Bhutia's PFL is fresh. Meh, TF is up to Invigorated now.

Anchormen
Top Order: remarkable
Middle Order: mediocre
Lower Order: worthless
Seam Bowling: superb
Spin Bowling: exceptional
Fielding: woeful

 

[Son Of Coco]

cheers mate ur teams a bit betta than mine but we'll see how it goes

I have to warn you...I'm in a rich vein of form having lost 6 in a row. If I can stop my players sitting in the corner rocking backwards and forwards tapping cricket bats on their heads, we might have a decent match.

 

[chaminda_00]

Same old story for the Jets, the bowlers get smashed around the park for 300 plus. Jeithoon however took his 2nd 5-fer of the season, 5/60. Atleast his ripping through middle orders now. Would be nice if he could take a wicket against a top order batsmen one of these days though. Hopefully we can score 250 odd in reply.

End of Over 50: 330-9, runrate=6.60 
Muralitharan 10-0-51-3 
Gooneratne* 7 (4 balls) 
Seneviratne 14 (11 balls)
 
Last Wicket: Julian b. Muralitharan 3 (FOW: 323/9)

 

[oz_fan]

Really should have won my match. I bowled the opposition out for 232 thanks to 6-49 from Wills and generally economical bowling. In reply my side lost key wickets at regular intervals with the only good scores coming from Grahame who scored 89 and Lebohang with 59. We were all out for 228 in the 47th over losing by just four runs.

Here's the ratings:

Top Order: feeble feeble

Lower Order: abysmal abysmal
Seam Bowling: feeble feeble

[cricketboy29]

Bah...lost the match, against HUNSS, back down to fourth, no change from last year.

 

[Spitfires_Fan]

Haha, playing a team that just joined this week - thought I could probably get away with TIE but went with PAN just incase, as I hadn't seen any of their stats, and they had some players with decent BTR and wages.

The Heath CC: 71/0 (7)

Early indications suggest I might have been alright taking it easy...
