well:

49.1 4 Macaulay to Chanderpaul
Smacked for four and picks out the man dressed as that bloody annoying frog. Thank god he's got his bits censored, this is a family game.

47.1 4 Macaulay to Ahmed
It's gone through the legs of Willmott. That young lass in the crowd must have averted his attention!

5.1 . Islam to Singh
Singh has missed that by a mile. I haven't seen a stroke that bad since poor old grandpa Earl!

The last two made me laugh out loud.

you can't challenge on sunday's and mondays but it doesn't really matter because the gaems aren't played till next sunday anyway

Yeah ok - I've already challenged a few people in Australia anyway so one of them will probably accept before Tuesday.

Damn i think im going to ruin my 18 wins in a row streak by accepting a friendly to some team who has remarkable top order, not to mention a few Australia players

 

[Adamc]

Won my friendly with a largely second-string team, left out Cuss, Gillespie, Berry (captain), Gillete (WK) and Male, so essentially missing my top four batsmen, wicketkeeper and two best bowlers. Got terrible ratings partly as a result of that and partly as a result of being on fatigued fitness. Forgot to change the captain, so the captain for today had woeful leadership. I used a mediocre 'keeper as well, which probably contributed to the 26 leg-byes we conceded.

Asterix XI 264/4 (50)
Bridge 65* (58), Boeta 55 (63), Challis 63 (100)

Danish West Indies 195/10 (43.3)
Baptiste 3-36, Malik 2-25, Badley 2-45

Got a div I qualifying match against a bot next week, should be a complete walkover but not going to take any chances, will play a full-strength team on GFI. I'm already on fatigued fitness so it'll be interesting if I can reach the bottom level before the end of the season...

Interesting, I got the same sort of ratings but reversed - you got mediocre for the main batting and competent for bowling and I got competent for the main batting and mediocre for bowling. My team is also on 'fatigued' with over the moon morale, as I assume yours is. I didn't rest any batsmen tho and my bowlers are much of a muchness anyway (except for Emmanuel), but that means I'm still only about a level overall behind you (although I have better fielding and secondaries) which is quite reassuring.

Looking at your playoff opponent, I think you might struggle...good luck.

 

[kears_falcon_9]

My season is over, i finsihed top and will be in Grade 4 next season, when does it start?

 

[Adamc]

There's a two-week break then the cup matches start the new season, so you won't have any competitive matches until the 15th. You can still play friendlies during the off-season though.

 

[Robertinho]

And no batting sessions?
