Your 30 was solid though.

 

[Son Of Coco]

You're right, it was well compiled. I shouldn't be too harsh on my team, they've shown they know how to construct an innings.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Great FC game today. Scored 354 then rolled them for 16. In the second innings they're 9 for 7 with 7 ducks. 3 blokes have scored 1 and there are 4 extras. Kudos to M.Selley who has taken 8 for 0 so far (to go with his 6 for 10 in the 1st innings). Hopefully he picks up the 9th tomorrow.

hello former friends. i won the nz cup yesterday. so bbbbbyah to me.... get on it

 

[cnerd123]

Anyone still play this?

 

[MrPrez]

Yep.

 

[MrPrez]

You're the ex Bangla manager aren't you *****?

 

[cnerd123]

Sort of. Im the guy who threw a big stink over the bangla elections being rigged and people who had done no work in building the team and gathering data taking over. The u-19 manager couldnt even beat bots with his club side ffs.
Playing in kenya atm, with a new team.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I still log in every now and then. I've gone through so many cycles of players that my current ones don't mean anything to me anymore so it bores me.

 

[MrPrez]

@*****: If you're talking about ashraf, he's gone bot himself now. I think mamun is still around but he doesn't bother us any more. I'm the new NAT manager, battling it out with Ireland atm.

 

[cnerd123]

Oh, nice yea, mamun was one of the main problems. I think ashraf was okay, he worked with us before the first elections in organising things IIRC.
Not going to involve myself with the Nat scene anymore, but maybe I'll pull a few deshis now and then.

**** the CW Battrick community was solid. Bring it back!

 

[Johnners]

Time to drag Coburn(?) out of retirement.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Nah **** that, ****s wages were off tap. I had forgotten that Dwyer bought him to play against me in the BT Cup though, those were the good old days.

 

[NZTailender]

Actually get quite nostalgic at times for when we used to post pops, organise CW cups and such. Good times, even if I can barely remember any of my players names

 

[cnerd123]

PlanetCricket used to have a killer BT community too.

IDM signing up for another side if people here want to revive this.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

I'm interested in getting it back off the ground here if we can get some people keen again. I'm back into recently.

 

[Johnners]

Yeah I'd be keen to give it another crack.

Could you re-activate your old account, or did you have to create a new one?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

My account never died tbf, kept logging in to keep it from going bot. But you can't get your old team back as far as I know, you'd have to start from scratch.
