Caves beach cc hosted long time frind and manager Ethaymac. he 2 teams have had numerous friendlies and have got a really good friendly rivalry with all matches close and competative. Caves_beach cc rested 3 out of the top 5 bolwers as fitness was a key area after a hectic schedule in recent weeks.
Caves beach won the toss and had a bat and the openers got off to the normal good start but where both gone while the scores where at 97. Young rookie Jongikhaya was given a chance to shine and did exactly that with an unbeaten 120*(104). Tyler also put in a big contribution and continued his good form with 123(113), with the boys hitting a huge 3 - 337. manager Rob Malone was always a little concerned with 3 key bolwers out that it may not have been a big enough total unless some one put there hands up to lead from the front with the pill.

The opposition come out firing and got of to a massive start, @ 1 - 210 they looked in total control however up and coming spinner Kamara bolwed well only taking the 1 wicket however going for 3.6 runs per over was a big effort when most bowlers went for 5 and 6 an over. Dee Crew got very close falling 22 runs short. With the openers dominating procedings with sheepy getting 114(124) & Thorne 140(136). all in all a good game and a solid hit out for all players and teams involved.

Sweet 13 players to rotate around the starting XI. I will probably wait till the end of the season before i buy the 14th respectable plus player.

 

[Nate]

Put all my batsmen on very attacking today for my friendly to see what would happen am currently on 273-4 off 33 overs!

What'd you end up with mate?

Team im playing in round 5 of the cup. He is playing his first XI every game, so his ratings will go down before sunday. Would love to make it to round 6. Full strength TIE is on the cards.

 

[nibbs]

made it 3/3 in the league after an easy win over DIVESrUS. Morrison and Janes both scored 100s as we made 330 odd. DIVESrUS were lucky enough to face the bowling of veteran derek henshaw who bowled 10 overs for 87. but wickets to hamshaw and lee, iirc, insured that they would never get close. the next 3 rounds will be the big test for my side. the 3 sides who, at the start of the season at least, i had in my top 4 along with my side.

fitness is holding out fine at the moment. i've made the decision to get a couple of players up to strong, but all the key players fitness is holding very steady. so for the time being at least i can't see any need to eliminate ourselves from the cup. not much else to say really. we did made make about 680k in gates last week but...

Yeah yeah, I know. He'll be getting a fielding net once Sambrook pops, and he'll get a stam net next season until he's superb.

I think that Macca is simply doomed to be crap with the bat. He's wonderful/sensational. and has made 5 runs from 2 innings this season. Sure, not much to go on, but he's been underperforming for seasons now. I'm considering sell Macca & Ralph, and simply buying a gun RF and a gun RFM. How much do you think they'd go for? An exceptional/exceptional attacking RM with superb stamina and Macca, you already know, but with wonderful bowling & superb fielding.

I'm not sure if I should open with Camilleri or what. He's definitely my best bat, but he also keeps and his stamina isn't that crash hot. I have him at 4 at the moment.

Pleased with both pops. Not getting many these days, mind. Have 5 players on 2 nets each. Problem is, most of them need a fielding net as well, but I just can't find the room right now.
