**Dev League Season 6**

[Slats4ever]

Things are really on track boys. A bit've ashame about the hiccup against the Curry A team but that's ok, it's still early and we shouldn't really have many problems qualifying. Sorry about my performance in that game too. Ugh a golden followed by a 13, not so great and only snaring 1 wicket. 1/18 from the match though that's ok. Maybe a little more chance to have a go with the ball? MAYBE......

The one dayers however is where things are really going to plan. Deeps you have to stop out performing me, sure I like scoring runs but when u score 70's and I only score 60's it sorta sux. Nah it's ok mate I really don't mind batting out there with you I had a lot of fun against the Indian boys the other day and it was awesome smashing our way to a total. LEt's keep up the good work boys.

Yup...cant wait to come back

If you don't want to be at the World Cup just say, I'm sure there's others who would love to be out there but got overlooked for someone who's supported another team and now says he can't wait to get away!

Marc - any chance of some captains feedback as to how the team is going ect?

CRICKET WEB BLUE 173 36.1 overs
CRICKET WEB GREEN 174/7 35.4 overs

Cricket Web Green won by 3 wickets

Man of the match: Xavier Rose

Coach's Comments:
It's a wonder that Rose would consider bowling offspin, considering how well his seam bowling is going. A second 5-wicket haul for the young man and a great win for the Greens. A couple of crucial innings in this one. Langeveldt was explosive to rescue his team from shame, but it was Ash Chaulk and Jason Toogood with a partnership of 95 that got the job done for the Greens. Well played by all again in a tight(ish) match.

Good win, should have done better though, lost to many wickets near the end. ggreat work by the bowlers particularly Rose and Umpire money - Umpire money bowled better than his figures showed great batting by Chaulk and Toogood

I'm happy with our current form - we need to fill a top order spot as I am more suited coming in lower down the order, but with the rest of the top order performing well I'm happy to bat out of position for the good of the team.

Cricket Web Green won by 7 wickets

Man of the match: Master Blaster

Coach's Comments:
In good bowling conditions, the Reds got off to an amazing start before a collapse of epic proportions saw the Greens back in the game. A solid effort by the Greens with the bat, including a crucial lower order contribution from SquidAU, saw them take the lead. With just 132 runs to defend, Marc tried everything to get wickets, but alas the Greens pulled through with an impressive win. Much congratulations must be given to Age Master, who finally found runs after struggling through most of the season so far.

Zimbabwe XI 448 & 179/5d
Cricket Web Blue 274 & 329

Zimbabwe XI won by 24 runs

Man of the match: A Flower

Coach's Comments:
A heartful chase by the Blues against the Zimbabweans came up just short. The first innings was really where this game was lost. After surrendering 448 runs to the visitors, including an Andy Flower special, the batting could only muster 274 runs. Much credit must go to Patrick Fisher who bowled exceptionally in this game for career best figures. Also of note is a magnificient hundred from StUEy and some fine rearguard batting from captain Langeveldt.

I'll try to get that done later today. Now I must watch cricket and study some Biology.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Vehemently denied.

Hmm.. who to believe, my sources, or Liam..

 

[Slats4ever]

The following is a statement I'd wish to release the to CW community.

I am not a drug cheat, and I have never knowingly taken drugs for either leisure purposes or to enhance performance. Playing cricket is my life and it is too much to throw away.

How the drugs got into my hotel room is a mystery. To my best knowledge I did not put them there. I will do my upmost to co-operate with the CW board of directors and Liam to help clear this issue up. I believe that it will be solved professionally and effectively so that I can get on the cricket pitch...

That's all for now, p.s my favourite cricketer is Shane Warne, **** did I say that out loud?

 

[spikeypineapple]
