Sim a match

[Chubb]

I am very happy with my team's performances. Losing twice to the Banglas was a disappointment but beating NZ and Africas twice as well as the win over England is a good return from the campaign. Some of our batsmen should have made bigger scores and Blignaut could have bowled better, but I did set the pitch up for spin. If you presented that record to a ZC official he'd bite your hand off for it.

2nd, not bad for I team I thought would be useless.

Respectable fourth place for a modest West Indies squad. Bowlers did very well but the batting was underwhelming. Special mention to Nikita Miller, a previously-uncapped spinner who took 91 wickets at just 17.9 apiece.

Thanks, Mr. Tailender.

No Dave Mohammed? Disgrace.

No Dave Mohammed? Disgrace.

I thought his bowling average in the 80s wouldn't go down to well with the sim.

 

[Robertinho]

Yeah, go CW XI!! We can roll with the big boys. Player of the series? It has to go to Cloete, the 4'9" leggie from Marist Ashgrove, with 2111 runs @ 57.05. Though Lucky eddie - 1405 runs @ 48.45 and 69 wickets @ 28.58 wasn't too shabby. Kennett was good with 82 wickets @ 22.80.

 

[NZTailender]

Yeah, VC4 gave some very odd results. But still interesting anyway! That Africa's team was a surprise, but it was all FC averages and the game doesn't know so, blah.

If someone could do those decade sims I'd be very grateful. Just some things have come up for the rest of this week. Otherwise I'll try and do them on the weekend/next week.

Think we need some more teams for that...only three people have given in teams yet.
