Got a weaker human team on the ropes at 100-6, should hopefully finish them off quickly, Street is yet again doing most of the damage (4-30 off 7 and counting).

quite dissappointing in the end,

363-2
Abdul kadir 166*(131)
Webster 76*(52)
Magloire 103(108)

first centuries for Magloire and Adbul Kadir but mid innings was too slow

Bit sadistic of you to bat first, lose more individual fitness that way as well.

I'm cruising to victory in my game 63-0 chasing 125. Street took 6 wickets earlier.

thought it might be close and the pitch was hard and fast, bit of an error

The side I'm playing made 261-9. My batsmen should be able to knock that off. Butcher took 5-64 which is good going into the season.

They're 6/2 already off 3 overs, it's going to be over in an hour mate. :laugh:

New commentary is a bit dodge, I can imagine some LOTR geek coming up with this cracker:

"The ball shoots off the surface and through to Wheat. The stump microphone picks up Wheat muttering 'My Precious' as he takes the ball... come to think of it there is something of the Gollum about him!

Hmm, won by 289 runs.

Asterix XI 348-3 (50 overs)
Willets 139 (111), Challis 96 (127), Boeta 51* (31), Bridge 43 (33)

Pitons CC 59-10 (16.3 overs)
Baptiste 3-11, Pollock 3-12, Gillespie 2-8, Male 1-23

Very happy with that considering I TIE'd, rested half my team and shuffled the batting order. I wanted to bat first to get a better idea of how much batting skill is necessary against bots, and Willets is just a competent/woeful/mediocre bat so I guess the answer is 'not much'. In any case the only players who went down in fitness were the two openers, so no harm done.

This is my opponent next week, not a bot but should be fairly straightforward on TIE:

West Windward CC
Top Order: feeble
Middle Order: feeble
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: feeble
Spin Bowling: useless
Fielding: feeble

I have another young proficient bowler who usually plays ahead of Cunningham because Cunningham has no consistency at all. Another 18 and 19 y.o competent bats who arnt being trained yet has there is no room for them yet.

Can anyone tell me how to format this better i cant get a decent gap between everything
