Heh, fair enough.

My match petered out to a draw. Cheers to Mahindinho for the overnight declaration idea though, at least made a game out of it. And I've got a better idea of how to beat him in three weeks' time.

I know I said I'd never speak of this again, but just realised that I've done the dirty on my side - we lost by 702 runs - not by an innings and runs. A far more respectable result.

Playing a bot tomorrow but have decided that considering the depressing nature of this week's FC game, I'd like to bat first and make some hay. So I'm batting if I win the toss and have promoted Bartlett to opener in an attempt to get his top score beyond his current best of 66.

It's the grand opening of the new improved ground tomorrow as well, so it'll suck for the fans if they're back home by 11.30.

Finally, I handed in the 2nd of two essays today and have no work to do tomorrow, so I need something to entertain me.

Do bots always lose the toss when it's their call? Or is that an urban legend that I've just created?

So far the bots have done very well at calling in OD's the toss against me (they have called three and one two) but it is annoying!

tomorrow i am playing the team who are 2ed who are a bot team with two non-bots in my leauge (not-including my team)

amd thank you for the advise on the players and training, i will get them trained up and i hope they will help my team stay up in div V in both OD and FC!

Darn! This is actually the first time I've ever played a bot, seems there were far less of them around last season. Anyway, hope they call it wrong tomorrow, I'm in the mood for some record breakin'

Best of luck with your new players and training - I'll keep an eye out for your team! And keep us posted on here as well of course.

Playing the top OD team wiith four reserves and on TIE. We're going at near seven-an-over. Worst mistake yet? Probably.

Absolutely ridiculous. Very, very sure we're on TIE. Still, I have pretty much no batting left after these two, so they'll need to stay in. So, so stoked with Burnip. Ordering a pizza, garlic bread and coke on his behalf. Should be here in 30-40 minutes.

Captain Ty Browne with his maiden 50! Been stranded in the 40's not-out enough, finally gets there.

EDIT: Done and done. Who knows what might've been on PAN or GFI, but Burnip and Browne were tops.

New bowler Greene getting his first ever bowl now. Anything with less than 6-an-over and I'll be happy.

EDIT: 0/34 off his 5. Promise to work with though.
