When you consider that Colts lose least to Internationals anyway and Cunningham is I believe not available for any games the rest of us aren't (up to the day of the Test), it's hardly a big loss.NZTailender said:Edit: This mean I can't get a game with the Colts?

Does contracted in this sense mean contracted and selected in the first XI, or just generally contracted? And is it central contracts or all contracts?Mr Mxyzptlk said:

In a slight error of scheduling, the Colts actually do have a game during the Test. (You people should check the schedule once in a while!)
Thus, Alex Blackman of Cricket Web Black (no game - I'm certain!) will be the sub fielder.

Never has a Cricket Web team entered a series with such confidence - 2 Test wins on the trot. Now, the XI faces its toughest challenge since the Season 4 tour of Australia. England has arrived on Cricket Web soil.
The Englishmen - arguably the best team in the world - takes on a nation still trying to find its feet at Test level. An epic mismatch some may say, but surely there's no better time for the CW XI to face this test of fire and brimstone, with the Champions Trophy and World Cup fast approaching.

England vs Cricket Web XI
First Test Match
at the PDV Dome
Welcome to the PDV Dome for coverage of this opening Test match to what is sure to be a fascinating series. Fresh of a maiden series victory, in Sri Lanka, the Webheads are keen to tackle the Ashes champions.
Michael Vaughan's men breezed through the warmup game carelessly, and would hope to increase their intensity heading into this first Test. The bookies have little time for CW in this series, and there's surely nothing to lose.
Interviewed earlier, Kevin Pietersen (who has ginger streaks in his hair for this series) claimed he's targeting David Kennett when batting and Neil Pickup in the field. Neil Pickup responded, "Kevin who?" In a related story, Tony Blair has announced that he's ashamed of Neil Pickup.
Let's head down to the middle for the toss. Michael Vaughan has called HEADS.
Martin Tufnel: And it fall heads. What's the plan, Michael?
MV: We'll have a bat. Looks a good, quick surface. Hopefully we can get some runs on the board and have them under pressure for the rest of the match.
MT: What about you Brendon?
BG: We don't mind fielding first. Some might say we were even planning to do it anyway. The boys reckon they've got some good bowling form behind them since Sri Lanka, and we're ready for the England challenge.
Marcus Trescothick and Andrew Strauss head to the middle, as Goff gathers his men for an quick prayer.
And now... let the games begin.

Unfortunate to collapse so badly in the second innings, we showed we can match them but Hoggard just bowled too well.
