[NikhilN]

In the latest match I scored one run less than you at a higher strike rate,with more boundaries,I bowled at a better economy rate than you and I took more catches then you *breathes*.

I am just a part time bowler...

I'm a little disheartened by the lack of team spirit shown by one individual.

I would like to take the opportunity to remind him that there's a plane ticket to NZ on the line, and to stop whining and start playing.

Hear hear.

I have been away for a couple of days and would just like to thank Marc for moving me around and giving me a chance with the gloves. Did my new glue-secreting gloves work?

Come on guys, let's bounce back and win the next game comprehensively

Hey thanks for the promotion to #6.Need to work on my bowling though. By the way when and where is the next WC? I'd assume it's pretty soon.

 

[lord_of_darkness]

wow number 9 now thats a new low.. but we must be trying something new so its all good..

 

[marc71178]

It's good to see my team taking more interest in this series than the other 4 put together!

The team bonding sessions in the bar must be paying off.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

By the way when and where is the next WC? I'd assume it's pretty soon.

The WC is in about a week from Sunday hopefully and will be held in the West Indies.

c'mon rich2001XI we should have won that easy us bowlers bowled well espescially my and r.powell we conceded only 3 an over each

 

[AUST_HiTMaN]

Gotta love those stats. My batting: Played 3 g ames, 2 innnigs, balls faced: 2, runs scored 0, highest score 0.

Lovely, 2 first ball ducks ohwell, i guess luck isnt with my batting this comp :P

Fairly disapointed with my bowling aswell. 1/20 off 6 with 2 wides and 2 no balls. Just not good enough for a opening bowler.

A great win again by the Langs, Eclipse showed he can bat well at virtually any position, coming in at 7 and hitting a 50 not out. Great stuff. Fantastic bowling by Liam to help us bowl out Rich's XI.

Look forward to the next game vs Blewy XI.

 

[Tom Halsey]

Very pleased with my bowling - shame that everyone else in my team can bat - meaning I don't think I'll ever get above 9.

Just reminds me of my first season as a CW-B player..Satisfied with my performance but not the result.

 

[Neil Pickup]

Liam, how many times were Ricardo & Hinton dropped [by PY or otherwise] during that 98-run stand?

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Chris Hinton was dropped once from memory. Not sure who dropped him though.

Shocker from me........

Really worried about spot in squad for WC now.

Glad that we had a welcome return to form as a team though and it seems we are gelling (?) as a unit and can look to whooping the rest of the opposition.
