You'll Never Walk Alone
Gah, I really let the team down. I`m all talk no action, haha. Sorry `bout that boys, we needed to shoot them out for not many to be in with a chance, but my new-ball bowling is a bit of a problem. Well bowled by Adz, really led the way. And De Silva had a great second innings dig. We just need to get it all together.

it's nothing to do with the bowlers Nath. the first innings batting was just awful, that's what cost us the match, not so much the bowling.Nnanden said:Gah, I really let the team down.

Cricket Web Green vs Cricket Web Black
at the Pickford Oval
Andrew Garven came up huge with the ball on a slow Pickford wicket, as he took 2 wickets and helped restrict Black in the middle overs, as Green emerged victorious by 21 runs. Ash Chaulk's brisk half-century got the Blacks off to a good start, but despite a composed half-century by captain Alex Blackman, the home side fell short in the chase.
CW Green batted first upon winning the toss, and half-centuries from Anthony Lezama and Nick Scott built toward 258/8. Cricket Web XI hopeful, Callum Thompson grabbed 5 wickets to minimize the damage, as the Greens failed to launch effectively at the end. Garven shuffled his bowlers to good effect and only Weber failed to take a wicket in a superb team effort.
Cricket Web Green 258/8 (50 overs)
Cricket Web Black 237 ao (48.2 overs)
Cricket Web Green won by 21 runs.
Man of the Match: AJ Garven
Cricket Web Red vs Cricket Web Colts
at the CW Oval
The highly-billed Reds did not fail to disappoint in their OD season opener, as they entertained a huge home crowd with a dominant 92-run victory over the Colts. Ian Markus was at his most brutal of effectiveness, and absolutely dominated the Colts bowlers for a career-best 150 off just 131 balls.
Some 7 bowlers, including Daniel Towns, were used but there was no answer to the onslaught. Jack McNamara dismissed James Stedman to break an opening stand of 98, then bowled Feeney immediately after, but that only temporary relief for the visitors. Rob Dauth joined Markus at the crease and accepted the challenge of high-powered cricket on the way to 322/4.
Things heated up further when the Colts shot out of the blocks in the chase of the massive score. After 13 overs the score read 92/0, and Marc Robbins finally broke an opening stand of 96 with a good change of pace. Jasotharan marched on at well over a run-a-ball, but was eventually outfoxed too by the former Red captain. Disciplined bowling from Rich Edmunds and Gaurav Nayak tightened the screw, and despite Bharat's 46, the Colts fell for 230.
Cricket Web Red 322/4 (50 overs)
Cricket Web Colts 230 ao (45.3 overs)

Awful showing. The bowlers didn't perform and they let the RRR go too high for the batsmen to keep up with, hence we all got bowled out. A good showing by some, though, such as Jaso, Pitt and Resha.
On a sidenote, Liam: Why on earth did Pitt and myself bowl?
I think we've had random batsmen bowling in every OD now, despite never asking for anyone but the five bowlers to be used for 10 overs each. It's never really had a positive result.
Markus and Dauth in the end just proved too much, though.
Personally not happy with my slow scoring, especially in the given situation.

For one, Pitt has some bowling skill. Two, everyone else was getting bashed. I'd rather try another bowling option for an over or two than stick to five bowlers, have one go for 80+ runs in 10 and be criticized for it. When you pick a team with 5 genuine bowling options and you get smashed, that's what happens.Loony BoB said:On a sidenote, Liam: Why on earth did Pitt and myself bowl?
Most importantly though, when you pick a team and don't submit bowling instructions...

Dissapointing start Blacks, we came close but the edge wasn't there. I think we need to do a bit of extra training this week.
