Well played thus far, Townsy. Just starting to lift that scoring rate, too. 
Das playing a good foil role too.

The Colts win the toss and elect to bat first.
- 5.5 Warwick to Jasotharan: big swipe across the line and they go up for it! GONE! First strike for Black. The dangerous
Jasotharan is out for 17.
- Jasotharan receiving some pretty harsh words from Pickup as he walks him to the boundary edge.
- 5.6 Warwick to Das: short of a length and defended soundly.
- 11.5 Warwick to Das: lovely shot off the back foot and that flies to the ropes for FOUR. His first boundary.
- The end of the 15th over. The Colts moving along comfortably. Here's Pickup on for Warwick.
- Thompson into the attack for the 13th over. He replaces Hoy, who looked steady, but not very penetrative.
- 15.4 Pickup to Towns: short and he rocks back and CRACKS it past point for FOUR! Towns has a word with Pickup now. He
doesn't appear amused. Towns quite enjoying himself though.
- The end of the 20th over and the Colts in firm control at this stage. Pickup has a talk with Kearsley and Hoy.
- George Roberts called into the attack for Thompson. Thompson continues to struggle with the ball. And we've spotted a
bareback Sean Bennett in the crowd. He's got some painted on his chest, but we've been informed that it's not appropriate for
TV. Certainly in good voice today though.
- 22.4 Roberts to Towns: swept fine! That's going away close to the ropes. Pickup pulls it back. They take 3. That's a fine
half-century for Towns.
DP Towns 52 (71 balls), 2 fours, 0 sixes
- Butler replaces Roberts now. Pickup searching for something.
- 25.2 Pickup to Das: driven BEAUTIFULLY! What a shot! That's 50 for Das. Quality knock.
AS Das 51 (61 balls), 3 fours, 0 sixes
- 27 overs gone. Roberts back for Pickup.
- 31.1 Roberts to Das: driven straight and they've taken one, back for the second as Hoy fields. Great running. That's the
150-run stand. Just 157 balls...
- Hoy back for the 34th over. Pickup desperate for a wicket here.
- 33.5 Hoy to Towns: that's wide and flown past the diving Dubb-Lynch. It's gone for FOUR! More extras now. This is not a
very professional performance from Black at the moment.
- Kearsley takes over from Hoy after a 10-ball over. Pickup continues to to exhaust his options.
- 35.6 Kearsley to Towns: BOWLED'M! Straight through. That one nipped back sharply and beat Towns' booming drive. A good
innings comes to an end, but the Blacks may smell an avenue to come back into this game.
DP Towns b Kearsley 63 (103), 2 fours, 0 sixes
- An astonishing 24 wides in this innings so far!
- 36.3 Butler to Nayak: GONE!! The umpire had no hesitation in giving that out and the Blacks are right back in this game!
Two quick blows. Finally some pressure on the Colts!
G Nayak lbw b Butler 0 (2), 0 fours, 0 sixes
- 37.6 Kearsley to Das: BANG! Pulled over midon and away for FOUR! Top shot. Das goes to 95...
- 38.1 Butler to Burke: OUT! But a noball! Oh, tragic! Pickup is furious at midon and Butler can't believe he's overstepped.
That ball took a huge edge and Dubb-Lynch collected it comfortably. Tragic.
- 41.2 Kearsley to Das: noball: SMACKED over point! FOUR! That's his hundred! Wonderful knock!
AS Das 101 (111 balls), 7 fours, 0 sixes
- 41.2 Kearsley to Das: and OUT! He hit that one hard, but he's picked out Roberts at deep midwicket. An unfortunate end to a brilliant innings. Standing ovation for Das as he walks off with bat raised.
- 41.4 Kearsley to Burke: HOWZAT?! Loud shout for LBW. Not out says the umpire. They considered the run but decided not to risk it.
- 41.5 Kearsley to Burke: GONE! Knocked him over with a beauty of a slower delivery! Wonderful stuff from Kearsley. He has 3!
Butler in for his final over... He's bowled well so far...
- 42.1 Butler to Bharat: full and wide and smacked away for FOUR! Beautiful placement there!
- 42.4 Butler to Bharat: full toss! Pulled away and placed beautifully! FOUR more!
- 42.5 Butler to Bharat: slower ball and picked. Bharat smashed it back overhead... two bounces... FOUR!
- Nathan Hoy is back for his 3rd spell. He's not had the best of days so far, but Pickup needs him to finish strong here.
- 44.2 Hoy to Bharat: she goes for the big one and it's skied high! Well-held by Blackman in the deep! That one wasn't easy.
Bharat c Blackman b Hoy 15 (8), 3 fous, 0 sixes
- 45.4 Kearsley to Hancock: full and toward legstump; Hancock makes room and hammers it straight. FOUR!

Need a big few overs here black, to keep them down a wee bit.

Need someone to come in and go at much better than run a ball here, really hit the accelerator.
EDIT: Great debut ton by Das, well deserved. Been our best OD bat for a while now, and just showing how much his injury hurt our OD side.

C'mon Nick, punish that last ball for all it's worth.
Quite pleased, I must say... should be a task for the bowlers though, given current form, but I'm confident they can find what they need to restrict Black if not bowl them out. Fantastic display by Dasa, that's just the second Colts OD century of the season (sadly enough).

Early wickets the key here. Great work by Das and Towns, and well finished by the lower middle order.

The Colts win the toss and elect to bat first.
Blacks require 122 runs from 93 balls with 6 wickets in hand.
Fitzsimmons and Smith in the middle with some work to do. It's a must-win for the Blacks. They need to chase 282 for a berth in the OD final. We all know who the Reds are backing...
Smith to face...
5.6 Bowman to Smith: played late and that runs away past second slip to the vacant third man -FOUR! The first boundary of the innings.
8.1 Thomas to Smith: lovely shot! Short but not too wide. Smith made room and uppercut it over first slip for FOUR!
14.6 Hancock to Smith: He's done it again! The golden arm of Hancock gets Smith with the last ball of the fielding restrictions! Big first wicket!
- The end of the 22nd over and the game interestingly poised. Very even.
- 24.2 Hancock to Blackman: cut away! That's FOUR!
- 24.5 Hancock to Fitzsimmons: lofted straight! FOUR runs! That shot is remniscent of a young Fitzsimmons...
- BREAKING NEWS! Sean Bennett has been ******ed out of the ground for obscene exposure.
- McNamara replaces Hancock for the 27th over. It's 125/1...
- 26.1 McNamara to Fitzsimmons: swept very fine! That's FOUR! No! It's pulled back well by Nayak. They get 3... a half-century for Fitzsimmons!
SG Fitzsimmons 52 (81 balls), 2 fours, 0 sixes
- Comley replaces Nayak.
- 27.4 Comley to Fitzsimmons: OUT! Spectacular delivery! It pitched on offstump and spun back through the gate to kncok back his middle stump. What a ball!
- 29.4 Comley to Kearsley: The other way! This is some high class spin bowling from David Comley. He's knocked over Kearsley with the wrong 'un. He had no clue.
- 30.6 McNamara to Butler: swept hard and square - FOUR! That'll give him some much-needed confidence.
- 31.2 Comley to Blackman: down the track and timed beautifully through the covers. FOUR! Great shot.
- 34.2 McNamara to Blackman: lofted high and over cover... FOUR!
- 34.3 McNamara to Blackman: he goes for it again! This time it takes the outer edge and Towns takes it! Super catch by Towns at backward point. Diving forward well.

DJ Comley 4-0-12-2Fitzsimmons and Smith in the middle with some work to do. It's a must-win for the Blacks. They need to chase 282 for a berth in the OD final. We all know who the Reds are backing...
Smith to face...
5.6 Bowman to Smith: played late and that runs away past second slip to the vacant third man -FOUR! The first boundary of the innings.
8.1 Thomas to Smith: lovely shot! Short but not too wide. Smith made room and uppercut it over first slip for FOUR!
14.6 Hancock to Smith: He's done it again! The golden arm of Hancock gets Smith with the last ball of the fielding restrictions! Big first wicket!
- The end of the 22nd over and the game interestingly poised. Very even.
- 24.2 Hancock to Blackman: cut away! That's FOUR!
- 24.5 Hancock to Fitzsimmons: lofted straight! FOUR runs! That shot is remniscent of a young Fitzsimmons...

- McNamara replaces Hancock for the 27th over. It's 125/1...
- 26.1 McNamara to Fitzsimmons: swept very fine! That's FOUR! No! It's pulled back well by Nayak. They get 3... a half-century for Fitzsimmons!
