lost by 4 wickets after needing to TIE due to poor fitness level. Should be able to TIE the next 3-4 games as well and still win.

 

[PY]

The first wicket down, I'm against two superb opening bowlers so hopefully just weather the storm.

Another wicket down, 47/2. As long as Chanderpaul stays in, I may have a chance of this. Otherwise (and quite likely), I'm screwed.

And the first change bowler is......another strong/superb.

 

[PY]

Third wicket down for 92.

Chanderpaul is still there though.....45*.

End of Over 17: 92-3, runrate=5.41, reqrunrate=5.15 (261-10)

 

[chaminda_00]

Won my game pretty easier, i wish i went TIE though.

The opener i brought at the back end of last season (Marc Ferrier) got another 50, been a pretty good buy so far. My other new opener (Nurse) that i brought this week only got 10, so im disappointed he didn't get a decent hit.

Norwegian cup opposition for you now?

As for my team, I've finally managed to bolster the batting:

Mukesh Virk - 19 yo, BT Rating=12,408
LH Batsman, LH Spin Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
A steady player with woeful leadership skills and woeful experience.
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: proficient Concentration: proficient
Bowling: abysmal Consistency: competent
Fielding: feeble

Should be a perfect FC player - goes straight into number three at Dynamo. Shame about his fielding, tho.

He'd be one of my best fielders
How much did you get him for?

 

[GotSpin]

Since my team is crap there are only 3 alright players

Charlie Allen - 18 yo, BT Rating=18,343 (Strong bat/Strong bowl/ Comp Keeping)

One of the future stars for Got Spin and should pop to superb batting next training. Due to his extensive training he has yet to play once for Got Spin because of his poor fitness, but when he does hit the field its sure to come with a boom. Will most likely play for Got Spin later in the season when the number of sets he recieves is reduced and his stamina increases and will most likely bat at number four and bowl first change. Allen recieves two batting nets, two bowling nets, one fitness and one fielding.

Grady Mccammon - 19 yo, BT Rating=29,924 (Remarkable batting)

A recent purchase for Got Spin and made his debut today in the first league match of the season. He top scored with a solid 86 opening. Towards the end of the season he will most likely bat at either 3 or 5. Mccammon will undoubtably make a large contribution to the Got Spin squad with the manager hoping that he proves his money worth. mccammon will continue to be trained in both batting (two nets) and fitness (one net)

Eddie Saunders - 19 yo, BT Rating=19,968 (Strong batting)

Saunders is one of the long standing members of the Got Spin team, cementing the spot of 1st drop by holding the record of making the most runs in the team. New players have come and gone but saunders has always remained and is still been given one batting until he pops to superb when his net will most likely be given away to Allen.

How much did you pick him up for?

 

[PY]

My stars to watch:

Sandeep Chanderpaul - 19yo , BT Rating = 19,142 [superb bat]

His destructive temperament allows him to dominate most attacks he comes up against. As the highest runscorer for Boggles, he is a consistent performer and should be near remarkable by the end of the season.

Madhukar Moodley - 18yo, BT Rating = 13,074 [resp bat]

New kid on the block, just promoted at the end of the season. Not really got going as of yet, had a few good games against bots but nothing under pressure. Hopefully, proficient will change all that. Also dynamite in the field and can sustain performance all day.

Brijesh Singh - 20yo, BT Rating = 19,436 [comp bat, comp bowl]

Seems to bowl above his weight, with outstanding performances last season to show for it. Will probably need to be popped to resp in both primaries to continue doing the job at the new level of competition. A very handy batsman also with an average of 70+ coming in at 5/6.

Usmal Liyanage - 20yo, BT Rating = 10,362 [prof bowl]

Stalwart of the bowling attack, struggles to take wickets but always manages to keep the runs down. Cautious bowling style may have something to do with that. Contemplating giving him a bowling net also to try for strong.

Kenwynne Sekani - 18yo, BT Rating = 8,934 [med bat, strong bowl]

Yet to really make a mark on the world of Boggles due to poor PFL. With the reduction of sessions this season, the manager is looking for Sekani to step upto the plate and perform this season as a possible superb candidate for best bowler.

 

[PY]

@ my opposition.

He's got a resp/prof batsman as his 4th bowler who's getting pillaged at over 8 an over by Chanderpaul and Singh.....

Still tight but feeling a little better at the moment.

 

[PY]

Kiss of death or what.

Chanderpaul goes to one of the superbs, requiring 100 off 17 overs with a resp/resp, med/feeb to come. GAME OVER.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

How much did you pick him up for?

750k. Bit steep, but I sold a respectable bat for 225k earlier in the week, so there's still plenty in the bank (had been saving till I finally could get on and buy some)

PY: There's still three overs of King, isn't there? Wouldn't be too pessimistic just yet.

Tad expensive for only a proficient though. Still should do well

9th over of King went for 6 and his 10th went for 3.

Need 71 off the last 10. Possible but need these two to stay in I reckon.

Hmm then took 18 off the next 10 balls. I give up.

 

[ash chaulk]

Had a loss very angry

Viveash 9-272
Blewitt 83, Elvins 56, Lockwood 47*

Ringwood Rovers 4-273 (44overs)
Harber 144*
Wainwright 2/61

 

[Scaly piscine]

My game is already into uber-sloblock mode. Time to switch to the real cricket.

 

[33/3from3.3]

What's the state of everyone's games i think BT is having some minor problems

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Congrats.

Especially to Brijesh Singh, 78* and 6-55 is a fairly outstanding effort.
