[Furball]

No
No

 

[NUFAN]

I think England will bat first
NO
YES

 

[BoyBrumby]

Give this a nudge up to remind Marcuss and chalky. Toss the cut off for tips.

 

[chalky]

No
No

 

[Jarquis]

Am going for glory

Yes
Yes

 

[Furball]

Heh. Fail by me, but I don't care.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Question 3: Will a wicket fall in the first 10 overs of play?

17/2 after 5, so def a "yes"

Fallers:

NUFAN No
GF No
chalky No

Standing:

GIMH Yes
Howe_zat Yes
Marcuss Yes

 

[Howe_zat]

Just so as we're clear, we meant 300 runs in total, not just in the first innings?

 

[BoyBrumby]

Just so as we're clear, we meant 300 runs in total, not just in the first innings?

The former, yes.

 

[Howe_zat]

32 runs needed, 10 overs to go. Strauss and Cook not likely to put the foot down. It'll be tight...

 

[Howe_zat]

Dammit Cook, STOP SCORING!

 

[GIMH]

Haha,scraped through there

 

[BoyBrumby]

Question 4: Will 300 runs be scored by COP on day 1?

Marcuss's game bid for outright glory falls just 3 short, but it's still a "no"

Fallers:

Marcuss Yes

Standing:

GIMH No
Howe_zat No

For our remaining two then:

Question 5: Will England's opening partnership be worth 50 runs or more?

Question 6: Will England have exceeded Australia's total by COP?

 

[Howe_zat]

Reckless overconfidence, don't fail me now.

Yes
Yes

 

[Jarquis]

Dammit Cook, STOP SCORING!

Haha,scraped through there

Gagf the pair of you.

 

[GIMH]

Yes
Yes

 

[GIMH]

Yes
Yes

Changed my mind

No
Yes

 

[Howe_zat]

Small comfort to be honest.

Still a result to win something on here for a change. First time I managed to pass the first round, of course proving that this game is all about momentum.

Question 5: Will England's opening partnership be worth 50 runs or more?

78 runs before the first wicket fell, so we have a winner.

Faller:

GIMH No

I resent that I resemble that remark.

I'll kick off the next game, if nobody minds?

Ought to change the thread title for a new round.
