Well played Greens, just showed you lot wanted the win more. Apart from the knocks of Law and Thompson it was a below par effort all round. Hopefully there will be plenty of enthusiasm in the next in the lead up to our next match.

Nice to see a couple of the Under 19 boys in Dravid and Vaughan in the runs, two very good innings.

EDIT: Forgot to add well done to Gundry, Goughy and Warwick on some good bowling performances especially Goughy 2-19 off 8, every impressive.

Em I'm kinda new to the CW Dev League...whats up with people being shocked with Green winning? Did they suck in the past?
They did OK last year, and then had a terrible time of it in this year's warm-ups (I think).

It's because most of their established players left and went to other clubs, leaving them with a lot of rookies. As such, not many people gave them a chance.

Fantastic stuff guys :D Bit dodgy with the batting again except fro Vaughan and Dravid who really stood tall and showed what they are made of :D

The Bowling was superb all round, Rose and Goughy obliterated the top order and Gundry cleaned up the tail after taking the key wicket of Thompson, fantastic stuff.

Great stuff Greens, good win. The bowlers really fired up... 6/16 is just awesome.

Cricket Web Blue v Cricket Web Colts
at PDV Dome

Scorecard
Ball By Ball

Blue made themselves comfortable in the Dome by posting a huge total after being invited to bat, and never looked like losing from then on, reducing Colts to 111 for seven before some lower order resilience reduced the target.

A fine one-day partnership between Andrew Cloete and Dinu de Silva was the clincher, as the two batted together for the best part of the morning to add 160. Weber and McNamara failed to offer real pressure, and once the new ball and swing had gone, there really was little threat. Cloete was run out by a fine piece of fielding, two short of what would have been his twelfth one-day century, while Tarick Weber picked up two wickets before Young came up top in the battle of the former Test legends, smacking a six and four fours in a blitz of 27.

Chasing 290 was always going to be difficult with Colts' brittle batting line-up; difficult quickly turned impossible when Demeza smashed Pitt's middle stump and Das gave a limp catch to Goff at point, and Colts were 29 for three. Stephen Burke tried to rebuilt at his usual dour pace, but with the required run rate ballooning he found himself needing to play expansive strokes, and smashed a ball to Peter Young. With third-change bowler Liam Camps demolishing the lower middle order, only Jasotharan and Weber remained to hit any significant runs, and with the run rate nearly eight an over they settled for surviving the 50 overs. This was managed, though Blue took all the points and lead the league ahead of Green after one day.

Cricket Web Blue 289 for five (50 ovs; Cloete 98, de Silva 84; Weber 2/50)
Cricket Web Colts 203 for eight (50 ovs; Jasotharan 61, Weber 54; Patrick 2/33, Demeza 2/36, Halsey 2/40, Camps 2/41)
Cricket Web Blue won by 86 runs
Man of the Match: A. Cloete
Points: Blue 5, Colts 0

Good to get one on the board. Great stuff from Demeza and surely a bit of a relieved sigh by Patrick. Cloete and DeSilva - typically class - but awesome start for Pete in the Wilshere role.

Worth noting that Fuller bowled a superb spell of biting reverse swing.

Dangit. 3/4 in the warmups, and suddenly we're 0/3 when it counts. No good. Disappointed in my batting and will be spending many more hours in the nets than usual...

Nice to get a win on the board. Not a great start to the season for me with the bat, but Cloete and De Silva did the job. Demeza bowled well in a one dayer for once, too.
