I have a comp/woe and a comp/abys to come, so I'm feeling pretty confident. That said, I felt confident chasing 182...

[dontcloseyoureyes]

My guess is he forgot to set orders and played his default.

 

[Robertinho]

He'll suffer from Bardle's PFL drop...

Romped to victory over D Smith's homies, ratings are steadily improving too:

Robertinho Select XI
Top Order: proficient
Middle Order: feeble
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: mediocre
Spin Bowling: proficient
Fielding: woeful

 

[Jamee999]

Nah, he's still sublime after the match.

 

[Adamc]

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 suppose, would need a few results to fall in my favour though. The difficulty is that I don't know how strong Doobie Bombers will be when I play them, as they've just sold off a number of players and haven't replaced them yet.

BTW, if anyone's interested in a knockout tournament (seeing as there's not enough time to arrange a proper cup like last season) sign up here.

I got my best ratings so far too, with mediocre middle order.

I'd just like to say I hate Ladbroke Rovers.

Sensational top order?! gtfo.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Surprisingly reasonable start against Dynamo Morpork, 39-0 off 10. Obrien my worst bat in the top 5 has 26* off 37.

 

[nibbs]

hey dave, 8 would be the way to go. then opt for 9 at 1mil, then ease back to 8 just after the 1.6mil mark

Sangha 3-1-3-0
Nevin* 24 (62 balls)
Findlay 33 (63 balls)

am currently going very slowly but should pick it up for the run fest at the end

 

[Scaly piscine]

Morpork getting some hammer now, Lisbie going nuts with 67* off 46 - dunno whether the stamina wall is hit when you reach a certain number of runs or balls, but he's only mid woeful stamina so will slow down before too long.

Dillon and Lisbie both making centuries, Lisbie off 70 balls. That's now 4 of my top 5 that have made tons this week - the other one just got 62.

Congrats. Batted me out of it. (Though if Herbert had opened he might have made it closer...and ruined his fitness level to boot. )
