CW Battrick Cup, season ten

[Bobisback]

3-44 in the Withington vs Beard game. Could be a very interesting game next week.

 

[Dead Badger]

Squeaky bum time:

End of Over 12: 45-3, runrate=3.75, reqrunrate=0.74 (72-10)
Hirst 1-0-2-1
Boardley* 1 (2 balls)
Janes 18 (16 balls)
Last Wicket: Platt b. Hirst 9 (FOW: 44/3)

28 runs needed, but Boardley is my last real batsman. Can he and Janes hold it together?

 

[Dead Badger]

Uh, I think I just won.

And that's the end of the match. Beard XI won by 7 wickets.
Withington Wonderers 72-10
Beard XI 73-3

::checks again::

Yep, I've definitely won. Freaky.

 

[Bobisback]

Not confident at all against you next week. Your team are the giant killers. Luckily my team isnt a giant though.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Why do I have to play f00lins

Hmm, I'd better start talking your chances up now. Seeing as you've got four bowlers as good as or better than my best bowler, though, I don't think there's much need. Such manifest superiority will not go unpunished by the mighty Beard.

 

[Bobisback]

Why do I have to play f00lins

Meh, i have to play him next round.

DAMMIT!

Checked in twice today. The first time, I just couldn't believe it. The second time, I'd almost lost.

DAMN YOU!

*shakes fist in rage*

*rolls up sleeves*

Reed is gonna get himself a whuppin' tonight...

Seriously though, congrats in the win, and good luck in the semis.

 

[Dead Badger]

Heh, if that road sign were anywhere near my house it wouldn't last five minutes.

Cheers, anyway; a massive slice of luck, obviously, but this is what I love about Oleary - he always puts me in with a chance.

 

[Mahindinho]

Heh, if that road sign were anywhere near my house it wouldn't last five minutes.

I was actually trying to find one that's on the A55 just after you cross into Wales. Just a big "!" with "Badgers" below it.

Well, I suppose they're scarier than leeks, male voice choirs and Charlotte Church...

End of Over 39: 185-1, runrate=4.74
Allison 8-0-35-0
Ashton* 99 (111 balls)
Wilde 34 (64 balls)

Last Wicket: Howland b. Denvers 48 (FOW: 110/1)

hmm. floodgates about to open

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Dammit nibbs, win you ****. I have more of a chance against you.

 

[nibbs]

End of Over 50: 257-5, runrate=5.14
Winters 10-0-72-2
Watkins* 25 (23 balls)
Whitehorne 16 (13 balls)

Last Wicket: Lancaster lbw b. Winters 1 (FOW: 227/5)


will need clegg and duggan to deliver the goods here if this is to happen. decent effort to restrict asterix to this tbh

 

[Adamc]

Bit low, but not too bad given the conditions. Think there will be less than 50 runs in it.

 

[nibbs]

lets hope cleverley is brought into the attack at some stage

 

[Adamc]

Curtains for nibblet. Minor consolation for the loss of the Chopper Challenge trophy.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Damn you f00lins! Make it interesting and rest 3 of your best players imo.


P.S. I am not a crackpot.
