Well sold Gratton for 3 mil.

Think I'm right in saying that Junior Cullip + 10 Others have just promoted out of bugssy's league...

Meanwhile, wickets are falling and this game should be over soon:

End of Over 20 (Maiden). Essex Eagles: 29-6, runrate=1.45 (1st Inn: 208-10)
Trail by 163 runs. (The Heath CC 400-4 dec)
Turner 10-4-10-1
Haynes* 0 (4 balls)
Murray 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Wali c. Sutton b. Turner 15 (FOW: 29/6)

I'm glad Turner has just taken a wicket, he hasn't taken nearly enough in this game considering he's now a prof/prof RF bowler and has been up against competent batsmen on a cracked wicket.

that is true mate junior cullip + 10 just come out of my leage buddy.

and my one day has gotten of to a bit of a slow match, hopefully pick it up soon with a good partnership.

End of Over 11: 50-1, runrate=4.55 
Govender 1-0-2-1 
Longthorn* 1 (1 balls) 
Skipper 20 (29 balls)
 
Last Wicket: Schofield b. Govender 20 (FOW: 49/1)

 

[EARLOBE]

Doing pretty well against the side that demoted into my league. He's got 1 78k wages player playing, he's an all rounder though.

End of Over 28: 159-1, runrate=5.68
Whitelock 9-0-42-0
Kilkenny* 70 (76 balls)
Bernard 46 (52 balls)

Last Wicket: Foyle c. Whitelock b. Allen 34 (FOW: 64/1)

Hoping that he won't be able to chase 300+

 

[andyc]

End of Over 28: 110-0, runrate=3.93
Canning 9-0-32-0
Shackleton* 48 (78 balls)
Woolner 58 (92 balls)

Bowling first on a H&F pitch. RR is good given the pitch, wickets getting a bit of a worry though.

 

[EARLOBE]

Just lost two wickets in two overs. I've got a longish tail though, so I'm still expecting 300+

My two most recent purchases are in the middle at the moment.

End of Over 36: 203-3, runrate=5.64
Wheater 8-0-58-1
Badenhorst* 5 (4 balls)
Law 7 (8 balls)

Last Wicket: Bernard lbw b. Allen 57 (FOW: 195/3)

 

[EARLOBE]

Just lost three wickets in an over.

I shouldn't brag about never having BT collapses

Jubilee heights CC - 35/10 off 25.2 overs

Second ever OD match against a bot team. Good times.

FFS

End of Over 50: 262-2, runrate=5.24
Erasmus 10-0-63-1
Chohan* 78 (69 balls)
Tzaneen 27 (12 balls)
Last Wicket: Woolner c. Terry b. Erasmus 94 (FOW: 212/2)

Fernando went for 0/81. Really need a replacement for him.

 

[EARLOBE]

Gun innings by Daniel in the end. Should be a close game in the end.

End of Over 50: 304-10, runrate=6.08
Mulligan 9-0-79-1
Daniel* 62 (34 balls)

 

[Nate]

Been listening to too much Linkin Park Earlobe.

 

[EARLOBE]

haha. It took me a minute to get that.

My gun bowler managed to get a wicket in the first over, so I guess I'm one step closer() to victory.

 

[Johnners]

End of Over 3: 15-0, runrate=5.00, reqrunrate=5.70 (282-2)
Verhoeven 2-0-10-0
Burke* 7 (7 balls)
Wallace 8 (11 balls)

Ludlow tonned up, whilst Harris was out on 99 ffs. Need the bowlers to really step up here. A win over this team in the 1st round would be great as I suspect I'll be fighting with them for a top 3 spot later in the season.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Hahaha Patto.

End of Over 50: 236-2, runrate=4.72
Seneviratne 10-0-56-1
Thorne* 20 (18 balls)
Mckenzie 58 (41 balls)

Poor effort with the ball against the wooden spoon favourites, I need to get an attacking/destructive bowler.

Started okay with the bat, need the top four to do the bulk of the work here otherwise I'm in trouble.

End of Over 4: 20-0, runrate=5.00, reqrunrate=4.72 (236-2)
Clist 2-0-14-0
Dylan* 16 (17 balls)
Keane 4 (7 balls)

LOL. Fairplay.

 

[Bobisback]

Got my first Div III win in convincing style. Bowled them out for 57 and chased it two down.

[NZTailender]

Threw my match against a superior side. Actually, the only 2 people missing were Mills and Knowles. Our batting line up got dismissed for a paltry 110. Gleeso managed 1 wicket and that was it. Going to lose my cup match as well, but should be able to win next weeks FC match and one dayer.

 

[EARLOBE]

Doing very nicely. Hammond is expensive but at least he's getting wickets. What orders should I set him on, he's a defensive prof/resp spinner but every order I seem to set him on he's always expensive.

Allen is their $77k wage player, he's also destructive so I need to get him cheaply and it should be easy from there.

End of Over 19: 82-3, runrate=4.32, reqrunrate=7.19 (304-10)
Hammond 5-0-30-2
Allen* 1 (3 balls)
Featherstone 38 (56 balls)

Last Wicket: Storey b. Hammond 7 (FOW: 79/3)

Edit - Allen got out for 2. Should be an easy victory now.
