YP time. Going for another 0 ITS. If I pull someone good, I'm going to be so angry...

Meh. Would've been proficient bowl, competent bat. Fired.

Hey Adam, have fun bowling to this guy. Doobie bombers have bid 2 and a half million on him.

[Adamc]

Meh, he's a lot worse than the guy he just sold for 3.2m, not sure why he bothered really.

 

[Adamc]

That's called "tactics".

(of course, when other people pull upsets against me, it is called "bad luck")

Damn, I was hoping 3wide would win as I want them to promote next season (having bowled them out for 36 in the cup ).

Had a narrow win myself, well-judged TIE I say.

Borderliners 259-9 (50 overs)
Louis 4-58, Watkins 1-33, Poole 1-54, Monk 1-59

Asterix XI 260-6 (49.1 overs)
Ashton 72 (89), Wynand 71 (61), Monk 44 (64), Cuss 41 (56)

Run chase was rather close but I had Watkins at no. 7 so I wasn't really concerned, nearly ran out of overs though. Pleased with Ashton starting to contribute with the bat, will need to use him a lot more next season.

NorCricket managed to lose their league match to one of the weaker teams in our league, the fitness hit from consecutive GFI's obviously taking its toll. Leaves the league wide open, even more so if I can beat NorCricket next week. I don't really have a shot at taking the title, but anything better than 4th will be a bonus.

I don't see why not, you have the best ratings of any of that top 4 this week and 2 of the other sides lost (so they'll have worse ratings next week). I could definitely see it going down to the last game of the season if you win next week.

I'll be supporting Asterix XI for the title...

Thought I'd spend 10 ITS for the hell of it on a 20yo - 4 on stamina, 4 on batting, 2 on conc:

[Robertinho]

Central Districts clinging on in their batting innings...

End of Over 39: 162-8, runrate=4.15
Rayno 10-2-47-2
Bennie* 0 (1 balls)
Sambrook 21 (50 balls)
Last Wicket: Pryde b. Payton 4 (FOW: 162/8)

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Herd did better than I expected. Munroe did worse

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Sambrook finally made his first contributation with the bat, playing a decent knock to make the total somewhat defendable. Two early wickets [Gray!! ] and the game is on. Though I really need a few more to have a chance, hopefully one of those is McMillan and we have game on.

 

[Robertinho]

Haha Gray you dud. Mcmillan playing yet another character-defining innings. Can grind out the runs, can Mcmillan.

Hodge is your best bowler, right? Isn't he superb/resp or something?

 

[brenoevo]

Scored 1/382 against Got Spin, Kennedy scoring 190 and Jayasuriya 182 not out, now to see what his batsmen can do.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Hodge is your best bowler, right? Isn't he superb/resp or something?

He SHOULD be superb/resp in the next two weeks or so, but he's still strong/comp, much to my anger.

Match all but over, bar a big collapse you've got it in the bag. I really need to get McMillan out very soon.
