I seriously need to get in form with the bat, to repay the faith that the selectors are showing in me, and to hopefully continue my run with the ball

So, who's up for being the official keeper of the 5D tables this season, using the English County Cricket scoring? Anyone?

I'd be happy to do it, but I think Travis is pretty keen since he's keeping them anyway, so I'll let him put his hand up.Mr Mxyzptlk said:

Cricket Web Green vs Cricket Web Red
at the CWBCC Stadium
Six dropped chances by Reds fielders proved costly, as Anthony Lezama was near his finest for an unbeaten century to carry Green to an unlikely win in the chase 367. Dropped three times in the innings (including a difficult chance on 4), Lezama remained largely unphased and helped lift Green from the despair of 25/3.
He was not the first to kickstart Green's resistance, however. Pooja Bharat struck her maiden First Class half-century, with an aggressive knock that saw her dropped twice by Kenny Dobson. Eventually she perished to a caught and bowled chance to Loganathan, and two more quick wickets followed - 151/6.
Seeming totally out it, a contribution from Reuben Verghese injected hope, but it was Tarick Weber's unbeaten half-century that truly pushed on with Lezama. A record partnership of 149 not out for the 8th wicket did the trick nicely.
The Reds had earlier elected to bat first in good conditions, but struggled against the Green pacers. James Stedman was superb, falling just short of his century, but Iyer was the only other serious contributor in a total of 231 all out. Not content, the Reds struck back quickly. Reuben Verghese played well for 62, but no other Green got going and 7 wickets fell to the seamers for 165 all out. Amidst the chaos, Bennett tempted Cunningham to sky one to longoff for his 100th FC wicket.
A useful lead of 66, CW Red made a solid attempt at consolidating toward victory. Only Gray reached a half-century, but there were good contributions from Iyer, Langley and Nayak, whilst Weber claimed 6 wickets - 297 all out.
A big task on hand, CW Green was quickly rocked by Nick Borcich's rediscovery of form. Alas, it only set up the epic chase that was to come.

Ouch! Dire loss...can't believe how ineffective our spinners were. That's the second winning position we've thrown away in three games!

Borcich found some form, as did Stedman.. otherwise, pretty poor. C'mon Reds, that was IN THE BAG!!
