Manhattan and Line Graphs to be released live with each match. Sounds a bit gimmicky, but I'm for it.

Decided to do an all-round pull that would appeal to the f00lz on the TM.

Reasonable price for those skills, not bothered about the age as he's good enough to not need to train further (apart from stamina). Would've preferred someone more attacking, but meh.

Was hoping for a YP to fill the no. 9 slot, but got a dud this week.

 

[EARLOBE]

I was hoping to get another 17 yo bat on the tm today, but it's not happening unless I want to dish out $500k for a competent. Ridiculous.

So I just put all of the nets on a 30 year old, I'll leave them on him and get his secondaries right up. Hopefully I'll be able to sell him for three times what I bought him for.

IIRC these ideas where there before FTP, and even BT.

Had a good win in my cup match.

oz fans XI won the toss and elected to field.

My best ratings as well.

Went for an allrounder

2nd XI Fun Times

Tawonga Tigers - 202/10 off 47.3 overs
Mcmahon 63 (104)
Fordham 60 (74)
Hindle 4/24 (9)
Swailes 2/38 (8.3)
Solanki 2/44 (10)

lost to

Brackenhurst - 204/4 off 36.5 overs
Hindle 126 (114)
Quinn 42 (53)
Browne 23* (31)
Holmes 2/47 (10)

Hindle continues to dominate inferior opposition, whilst being useless when it counts. Quinn might be playing First XI, so I guess that's promising. Cheers for the game Geg.

 

[PY]

Thumped opposition in the cup, was a bot so no surprises but the ratings on TIE are looking quite tasty now everyone is fit again.

		Boggles  	Guwahati CC
Top Order: 	remarkable 	woeful
Middle Order: 	strong 		abysmal
Lower Order: 	worthless 	abysmal
Seam Bowling: 	sensational 	worthless
Spin Bowling: 	wonderful 	useless
Fielding: 	woeful 		abysmal

Pity this team is only going to together for another week because it could have been the goods.

 

[Dead Badger]

Really low-scoring cup match - bowled the opposition out for 88, but now slightly labouring towards the target:

End of Over 16: 44-2, runrate=2.75, reqrunrate=1.32 (88-10)
Byron 3-0-11-1
Janes* 1 (6 balls)
Bromby 21 (35 balls)
Last Wicket: Platt b. Saifiullah 4 (FOW: 38/2)

 

[headhunter]

BEST Indies 109/10 (30.1)
Britton 29 off 47

WestSide VendeTTa 110/2 (22.3)
Patton 1-0-1-1

Was never going to win this one. Maybe next season we can put together a bit of a run.

 

[Nate]

As Dwyer is finding out, the TM is nuts now that people are realising they want a trainee. Glad I got in early. Good money to be made though if you pull a good YP.
