He is a mile off respectable tho.

Yes, I (belatedly, and with the help of Scuffer's spreadsheet) realised that; max of about a quarter of the way to resp bat. Ah well, a nice novelty nonetheless. Might still find space to train him, since my batting depth is rubbish and I don't think he'll fetch much on the TM.

End of Over 40: 157-7, runrate=3.93
Mauger 10-0-40-2
Thorne* 43 (65 balls)
Neal 0 (0 balls)
Last Wicket: Mornar lbw b. Mauger 5 (FOW: 157/7)

I can't believe I'm struggling like this against a weak bot.

Hodge 4-1-10-0
Bullard* 10 (23 balls)
Champion 9 (19 balls)

I'm in with a shout.

I won my Cup game against an easy bot by 9 wickets, bowled them out for 45. It was a totally 2nd-string lineup, except for Houlihan (comp/comp) and Wolfenden (resp/feeb) who bat at 6 & 7. Ludlam announced his arrival to Anchormen in style with a fiery spell of 5-1-17-4, whilst Flitney managed to take 3/10.

Solid ratings for a B-side IMO

Anchormen
Top Order: mediocre
Middle Order: feeble
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: mediocre
Spin Bowling: feeble
Fielding: feeble

7.6 W Lambert to Bullard
Ball pitched outside off, Bullard attempts to cut, gets a thick inside edge and makes a mess of his stumps.

Gun, just need 9 more now.

 

[bugssy]

my bowlers come back strong

End of Over 2: 18-0, runrate=9.00, reqrunrate=5.00 (257-10)
Yates 1-0-7-0
Schofield* 12 (6 balls)
Skipper 4 (6 balls)

 

[Bobisback]

My cup match lasted 18.3 overs. Bowled them out for 25 (Poke 6/9 Wikus 4/10) and chased it in 4 (Brinkhuys 18(11) Hocking 7(13)) Hope i get another bot at home next round. Good times.

 

[Johnners]

End of Over 34: 104-6, runrate=3.06, reqrunrate=4.75 (179-10)
Hamlin 7-3-9-1
Middleton* 4 (11 balls)
Dudgeon 0 (2 balls)
Last Wicket: Bhate c. Taylor b. Hamlin 47 (FOW: 104/6)

Resting Harris, Moloto & Groves, was a little worried when I was dismissed for just 179, but it seems my bowlers are going to do the job for me.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

And that's the end of the match. Unhappy Meals won by 5 wickets.
Central Districts 143-10
Unhappy Meals 144-5

Could've been in with a shout if I had 20 or so more runs, Seneviratne was on fire with pretty good figures, whereas Pryde probably (unsurprisingly) cost me the match.

Seneviratne 5-2-6-3
Pryde 10-1-53-0

Better than I expected anyway.

Through to the third round. Yesssss.

Victorian Bushrangers - 238/8 off 50 overs
Heggett 96 (86)
Drew 36 (42)
Kous 34 (34)
Smart 3/33 (10)
Hindle 2/36 (10)

lost to

Brackenhurst - 241/1 off 40.5 overs
Burnip 118 (126)
Read 117* (119)


Would have lost the match if it wasn't for Smart. Early strikes against their proficient top-order were always going to be the key and Smart was immense. Our fielding was top-notch aswell. Burnip + Read = 200-run partnerships lots.

 

[Johnners]

Won quite comfortably in the end by 34 runs. Verhoeven was awesome with 6-13 from 8, and Hamlin with 2-11 from 10. Meyer starred with the bat scoring 80.

Wow, way to be original.

 

[NZTailender]

Is actually Victorian Bushrangers; Nath seems a wee bit confused.

Got worried when I saw it in the fixtures list.

EDIT: English is my second-language...

[cameeel]

Had an easy Cup win today, I doubt i'll get much further though given the dire state of my bowling attack and a luck of funds with which to buy a decent seamer.
