BT Cup 5

[andyc]

Hmm... not the best start here against Dwyer. Fernando pulling a Harmison

End of Over 7: 56-0, runrate=8.00
Fernando 4-0-46-0
Hiller* 29 (22 balls)
Hocking 25 (21 balls)

Edit: Jesus, now Canning gets hit for a 4 and a 6. This could get ugly.

Edit: Uhh... starting to get a little annoyed tbh. It's a cracked pitch, ffs, and all bowlers are on very defensive, except for Canning's very attacking.

End of Over 11: 90-0, runrate=8.18
Potgieter 1-0-10-0
Hiller* 49 (34 balls)
Hocking 39 (33 balls)

Off to a decent start against Chaulk:

End of Over 14: 85-4, runrate=6.07
Swart	2-0-15-0
Berry*	14 (12 balls)
Blewitt	22 (22 balls)

Going pretty quickly but with Wainwright & Elvins gone I really just need Blewitt and I'm into the tail.

 

[andyc]

Tedstone and Potters have slowed things down here, while Tedstone thankfully got Hiller early on in his spell just after he'd made his 50 from 35 balls.

End of Over 18: 111-1, runrate=6.17
Tedstone 4-0-15-1
Gravey* 10 (25 balls)
Hocking 49 (48 balls)
Last Wicket: Hiller c & b. Tedstone 50 (FOW: 92/1)

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Haha now I know why Chaulk's going at over 6 an over. I ****ed up my orders and didn't play Pryde, Instead playing Herd as my other opening bowler. He went for 43 from his first 5, and looks like going for more off his next 5.

Gun.

Haha as I type he bowls a single-run over.

 

[Hoggy31]

Bowled Geg out for 89, had him 5/5 at one stage.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Haha, bowled Chaulk out for 188 with a worthless-prof bowler opening the bowling.

Sambrook mullered him with 6-28.

End of Over 39: 188-10, runrate=4.82
Sambrook	9-1-28-6
Hutchinson*	6 (7 balls)

I've started okay, hopefully can see the new ball off and get a good opening partnership going.

End of Over 2: 8-0, runrate=4.00, reqrunrate=3.77 (188-10)
Fleming		1-0-8-0
Dylan*		2 (8 balls)
Jephcott	6 (4 balls)

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Game's going okay. Dylan roaring along with 40 from 38 balls, Munroe in now on 3. Jephcott went for 13 and Keane got a quacker.

Just watching Dwyer-Cameron in another window, Cameron got creamed in the last few overs.

End of Over 50: 288-5, runrate=5.76
Erasmus	10-1-59-1
Baker*	17 (13 balls)
Allison	63 (59 balls)

Fernando went for 89 runs from his ten and the last 10 overs went for 83 runs. Looks a good game on the cards over there, though I still expect the Ponies to get over the line.

 

[cameeel]

Kipper XI v VCC

Kipper XI: 4-261 (RR: 5.22)

Byfield 31*
Brown 48*

Badley 1-52

Pretty meh score, about par for what I've been making recently. VCC's batting line-up looks okay, but from Kweek's results 261 may be just enough. Need Davies to fire tbh.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

While the CD's vs. Viveash clash dwindles into snooze mode, Poke has torn through the Ponies top order.

End of Over 7: 35-4, runrate=5.00, reqrunrate=5.91 (288-5)
Poke	4-0-21-4
Canning*	9 (8 balls)
Sutton	1 (4 balls)

Big names all falling to the Pokestar (Griffin, Farmer, Tedstone and Kilkenny)

For future reference, my game:

End of Over 19: 88-2, runrate=4.63, reqrunrate=3.26 (188-10)
Oneil	3-0-12-0
Dylan*	54 (66 balls)
Munroe	17 (35 balls)

Need Munroe to pick up the pace.

Citizens Erased won the toss and elected to field.
Pitch: Dusty

End of Over 7: 21-4, runrate=3.00
Abdul kadir	4-0-14-2
Blatherwick*	8 (15 balls)
Tau	2 (5 balls)
Last Wicket: Hitish b. Abdul kadir 1 (FOW: 11/4)

Hitish and Moodley both gone. Must get rid of Blatherwick soon, and everything will be smooth sailing afterwards.

 

[Hoggy31]

Tawonga Tigers:
89 all out(22.5o)

Siyabonga 58

Wiles 5/7

Western Vikings:
0/90(15o)

Bent 45*

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Managed an 8 wicket win over a superior team with a worthless bowler going for 77. Decent.

And that's the end of the match. Central Districts won by 8 wickets.
Viveash			188-10
Central Districts	189-2
 
 
End of Over 40: 189-2, runrate=4.73
Wainwright	9-1-33-0
Dylan*		93 (130 balls)
Munroe		78 (95 balls)

 

[Bobisback]

With Poke taking 4 in his first spell, you would think i would be on top, but things changed after that, the next 30 overs have gone by with only one wicket, and andy has a hold on the game. Though my cracked pitch may give poke an advantage, come on collapse!

 

[ash chaulk]

how imbarrassment i feel like pakistan but without the cheating.

 

[AussieDominance]

End of Over 47: 284-6, runrate=6.04, reqrunrate=1.67 (288-5)
Poke 9-0-59-5
Thatcher* 3 (3 balls)
Canning 134 (117 balls)

Last Wicket: Terry b. Poke 66 (FOW: 281/6)

Cameron is is the box seat still even after losing Terry who played a faboulas knock.

 

[chaminda_00]

Interesting start to my match against Jamee, looks like he rested his two best batsmen. So i probably should be doing better. With Kealy also an all rounder, their 2nd best bowler. It should make things interesting in the chase. Still expect Bardle to clean us up, so we need to roll them under 150 to have a chance really.

End of Over 24: 95-2, runrate=3.96
Sisk 7-0-26-1
Aldred* 31 (54 balls)
Fillery 46 (67 balls)

Vincent 51 (37) not out

Dalmeny CC beat Boulevard Bombers

The managers can give more details if they like.

 

[Agent TBY]

And that's the end of the match. Citizens Erased won by 9 wickets.
Roar CC	85-10
Citizens Erased	88-1

Didn't give Moodley a chance to bowl.

Also, I was watching Andy's game on MultiView. What a game.
