[cricketboy29]

I must our captain, really wanted us to go all out for the win there..., what with me and borcich opening, and Dauth coming at no. 11.

Great win for Camps Aid there, all for charity. This next match should be...interesting. xD

First game as captain?

Wow, the man just gives and gives and keeps on giving.

 

[Majin]

First game as captain?

Yup, and I thank you for the honour. :}

 

[Barney Rubble]

Haha, a magnificent two-ball duck for me - but I did get Hakon out.

but I did get Hakon out.

Håkon Mørk in OD = not too much cop.

 

[33/3from3.3]

19(18) and 2 sixes batting at 4 = that's awesome for me
40/1 (&) = ********************************

 

[cameeel]

McKern hitting 23 including two sixes... Crazy. I see Watt and Borcich didn't do too horribly as openers, if not a bit slow.

'grats to Draviid, too, on his first game.

Wooo!

Camps Aid vs Wilson XI
at the PDV Dome

David Kearsley had the crowd energized with his sensational unbeaten 75, but he and Robert Cribb could not quite get the Wilson XI home, after a middle overs collapsed hindered their chase of 268 for victory.

Kearsley faced just 57 balls and struck 2 fours and 3 sixes, but it simply was not enough. For Camps Aid, it was Callum Thompson's 3 wickets that did the big damage.

Earlier the fanfare was that of Daniel Smith, however. Batting at 6 after the quick dismisal of Camps, Smith stroked and smacked 10 boundaries in his 58-ball 72. His innings went a long way toward resurrecting a score of 52/4, and setting it at 267 all out.

Most surprising in the Camps Aid innings though, was the batting of Callum McKern. With no previous batting form of which to speak, McKern smashed two huge sixes over midwicket in a score of 23.

Camps Aid 267 ao (48.3 overs)
Wilson XI 250/7 (50 overs)

Camps Aid won by 17 runs.
Man of the Match: DP Smith

Dang it. Good start to the charity series though El Kearso, solid hitting.

Also, Liam, how come I didn't get a bowl?

Mørk

McKern's awesome batting gets him a promotion. Due to peer pressure, Mørk will take the new ball with Young. Smith first change. Rest can be sorted out by Dan Rai on the battlefield.

Going to be a fearsome first few overs of our innings!

 

[Majin]

I'm expecting big things from you, Neil. That century is still fresh in the memory. ;}

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Due to peer pressure, Mørk will take the new ball with Young.

Delighted - both to be considered a peer and to have the new ball.

Go skipper Dan.

 

[Majin]

You're to have the new ball and also bowl the last overs of the match, if we bowl first/chase goes that close. :}

Regretting the decision to make you captain already.

 

[Majin]

Well, actually, this is what the people really want to see. And it IS for charity, and all.

 

[steds]

I was joking, Dan.

 

[Majin]

I know. xD I edited my post because what I posted before didn't make any sense. :}

 

[Loony BoB]

Pickup opening the batting.

I'm so happy.

 

[Majin]

Hey Liam, is it possible in anyway to make it so Pickup bowls left arm pace for an over or two? And Hancock sends down Offbreaks? Or can people only bowl what they're set as already?
