Just scraped past a team with ratings 20k lower than mine in the cup. Next season I'm completely rebuilding the team from scratch, the youths that are coming up aren't really good enough.

Through to the 3rd round with another dominate performance. That side usually get 90k odd ratings, but have played the same XI all season and are struggling fatigue wise already.

Rajapaksa made his SOD debut, after I rested my main opener and reserve keeper batsmen due to fatigue, scored 57 on debut. Dominguez also got his madien SOD hundred. Spinner took 4 each to roll their middle order.

My U19 players seem to perform better in senior matches then youth cricket. ITSL.

Got completely ****ed over. Pile of turd bowling gets me all out in 39 overs in decent batting conditions. ****ing ridiculous.

I guess I must have missed the ODIs where Bangladesh's shower of **** bowling managed the same feats against the 8 top sides.

Want to play my strongest XI youth side in a friendly - not fussed if it's against another youth team or a senior side or whatever.

I'll challenge if necessary.

1 x avg batting (to a bowler, oops)
1 x cap endurance
2 x rel endurance
1 x poor experience (FINALLY!)

I'm happy with this week.

Just beat Karachi Blues in my first game of the Asia Cup, he was easily the best team in my group so I should make it to the next stage fairly easily.

Endurance pop on someone I'll sell at the end of the season. That's all.


End of over 16 (5 runs) - Scaly Piscine CC(66-1) RR 4.12
A. Yatawara 12 (9b) , T. Jones 36 (65b) , S. Harshana 4-0-23-1


Riveting stuff.

Well im in front right now, but dont see me winning. I should though, against an inferior team.

International Regular
15.1 W McFarlane to Kaluperuma : Flat delivery on the middle off stump line. Kaluperuma comes down the track, looking to drive it away through cover. The ball clips the edge and flies low towards Gallagher at first slip and he takes it diving across to his right.
14.6 W Gallagher to Bandara : Bandara has come down the track and tried to hoist that over long on's head, but instead it has gone straight up! Yatawara has called for it and takes the catch with ease.
A. Bandara c A. Yatawara b. A. Gallagher 0 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
14.3 W Gallagher to Baddewithana : Baddewithana won't be happy with his partner after that mixup.
T. Baddewithana run out (J. Verco) 9 (17b 0x4 1x6) SR:52.94

What a joke. My far superior bowlers do nothing all day, then his trash comes in and takes wicket after wicket.

I dont care what you are going to say Scaly, there is no way you can twist those ratings to say that you deserved to win the match, especially by that much. I dont have a youth keeper, and my lower order is worse than yours. Apart from that my team is the better team. Such a stupid game.
