**Dev League Season 7**

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Agreed totally - well played boys - although not sure Liam was thinking of by not bowling Zebra (and batting him at 11!)

A good team effort considering the changes made prior to the game.

The seamers were making it happen and intermitent rain delays meant they were always fresh. Add that to I simply forgot he was in the side after a point in the second innings.

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

when do the blues play again?

Tomorrow and Thursday, Friday, Saturday I believe. Not sure. Check the schedule earlier in the thread.

Go Reds!!
Defeating the Aussies twice
Told you we'd come good

 

[AUST_HiTMaN]

Wow, a little competition begins between the Red pacers:

"Mr Ponting needs 8 FC wickets for 150.
Dave needs 17 FC wickets for 150.
David Kennett needs 21 FC wickets for 150.
Mr Wright needs 25 FC wickets for 150."

A little race to see who gets there. With Mr P ruled out by the captain, Kennett performing explosivly and Wright a consistant performer it can be a interesting battle!

 

[marc71178]

Add that to I simply forgot he was in the side after a point in the second innings.

You mean his constant chirruping has ceased?!

 

[Mister Wright]

One thing that I didn't notice when I looked at the scorecard was that I was out in both innings...so my unbeaten run with the bat is over.

Go Reds.
Want to see a repeat of the last match from the seamers.

 

[Mister Wright]

Go Reds.
Want to see a repeat of the last match from the seamers.

As do I.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Neil Pickup needs 79 runs for 500 FC runs.

Should manage that sometime around the middle of season nine, then. Delighted at wicket number 200, mind, though I'd happily have taken 0-129 and won.

Pleased with the fight we showed in the middle order after being forced onto the back foot by the New Zealanders, but I think a bit more catching practice is in order.

Come on Blacks.

 

[Loony BoB]

Not happy with my runs in that last game. 7 and 28 - just not good enough - need to spend a lot more time in the nets if I want to keep my place. I'm really looking to boost my average, too, it's just not paying off when I make the same old mistakes.

Cricket Web Green
Age Master (C), Lord of Darkness (vc), Eyes Only (wk), Cloete, Xavier Rose, Blewy, Waughney, Biased Indian, Delkap, Nathan Hoy, Rob Timewell, Loony Bob.

hmmm, though there may have been a change or to, but very happy to be charging in or carrying the drinks on the weekend. GO GREEN, blues got nothing

 

[marc71178]

Go Reds.
Want to see a repeat of the last match from the seamers.

Here here, and how refreshing it is to see someone not in the team showing such thoughts of team > individual!

 

[biased indian]

my first fifty that was nice but was out cheaply in first inngs and lately has not taken any wickets in 5d hope to improve on the next game

and come on greens we have to win thw next game we are on the upward curve

 

[zghansar]

Would love to bowl in cricket games... but if we can win without me bowling ,, then I never want a bowl.GO REDSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

 

[Tom Halsey]

1000 runs and 150 wickets double - how many have done that Liam?

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Wow, a little competition begins between the Red pacers:

"Mr Ponting needs 8 FC wickets for 150.
Dave needs 17 FC wickets for 150.
David Kennett needs 21 FC wickets for 150.
Mr Wright needs 25 FC wickets for 150."

A little race to see who gets there. With Mr P ruled out by the captain, Kennett performing explosivly and Wright a consistant performer it can be a interesting battle!

Right, I hope that spurs you on to another good performance!

 

[Tom Halsey]

OK I will take option 1 if you tell me why I have been banned.

Isn't it fairly obvious?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

1000 runs and 150 wickets double - how many have done that Liam?

Only 2 players have more than 150 wickets in FC cricket - Lucky Eddie and Neil Pickup. Therefore it's no surprise that only 1 player has 1500 runs to boot. Guess who.
