The Great Northern CC manager Dave Richards is said to be pretty happy with his side, the only players he is really considering replacing are Melville (who likes to open but won't make that spot) and Ulyett.

The Great Northern CC side recently took on the current England side in a 3 test series, the series was dominated by Russell and Tyson as England were swept away at the Great Northern Arena. Negotiations are onging for the side to have more friendlies against current internation sides.

              Great Northern CC won by an Innings and 163 runs.

 

[Jamee999]

I'd be interested in Melville.

If you've got the time mate, Leicestershire Foxes as of now:

1.AC Gilchrist +(AUS)
2.AJ Strauss(ENG)
3.R Dravid(IND)
4. EdC Weekes(WIN)
5. DCS Compton(ENG)
6.SR Waugh*(AUS)
7. Imran Khan (PAK)
8. W Bates(ENG)
9. SJ Snooke(SAF)
10.SE Bond(NZL)
11. AA Donald(SAF)

First at Great Northern, then Grace Road, and then a seamer please/

 

[superkingdave]

ill see what i can do tomorrow

 

[chaminda_00]

Jaffna Jets would like to discuss a possible trial game or a series with the Greater Northern CC

 

[superkingdave]

Great Northern CC took on Leicestershire Foxes in a three match series, once at the Great Northern Arena, once at Grace Road and then at Headingly.

All matches were run as com vs com

 

[chaminda_00]

If you have time i wouldn't mind see how badly the Jets would get smashed too

If you willing to can you play these three sides against you team

EDIT: changed batting order around for game 3

 

[Blaze]

Great Northern are favourites IMO. They look very powerful.

 

[superkingdave]

not what i expected here!

 

[superkingdave]

although tbh when you make it a com vs com match it does seem to not bowl some of your bowlers sometimes - it seems to like Sobers but not Kline.

i assume Marc will be doing the matches manually with our tactics

And completely forget about Fairfax with the bowl, don't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing really.

Thanks for that, gave me a few things to think about. 1-1, im happy with that against the Blaze favourites, for this week.

 

[marc71178]

Of course that all assumes the figures being used are the same as the ones I have, specifically about bowler frequency (seeing as in CPU v CPU ITC uses that a great deal)

 

[Jamee999]

And SM adjustments.

 

[superkingdave]

Jamee if you want to talk about Melville im listening

 

[Jamee999]

What kind of players are you looking for?

 

[superkingdave]

middle order

 

[Jamee999]

I've got an extra seamer, I've got 2 averaging under 24 for sale.

Failing that, I guess Waugh might be an option.

 

[superkingdave]

I've already got enough seamers, i'd be interested in Waugh

 

[Jamee999]

To be honest, for me, a non SM would be better for Waugh.

 

[superkingdave]

no problem

 

[Jamee999]

So, Sunny?

I'd be willing to raise up to Compton...
