Stumped!

[SillyCowCorner1]

Veenstra is in it to win it...but McCormack is content with playing dot after dot. He's hanging aroung yeah.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

He's farming the strike now lol :

30.5	1	Plaatjies to Veenstra	66 mph	6/10​	leg stump	attack	poorly timed
30.4	4	Plaatjies to Veenstra	65 mph	5/10​	middle stump	attack	Sweet	Boundary!
30.3	4	Plaatjies to Veenstra	63 mph	7/10​	missing off	attack	well hit	Boundary! no one is out there

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

McCormack, please hang the **** around here bro.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

30 required offf 42 balls with 3 wickets in hand.

Don't give me a heart attack.

Come on Mooooooooo

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

What a game. Phewwwwwww

10 pops this Thursday, 5 of them experience. Still some major ones; homegrown Steve Ludlow up to 31 bowl, up-and-coming spinner Shingirai Ndaba with two pops, and new signing Michael Winton also with a pop.

i think you'll get 6 figures. He's got good starting skills, good skill distribution, reasonable fielding and crowd pleaser draws in the fans leading to more gate revenue.

ZCC might be tempted to put in a bid!

After much consideration and a nights sleep I'm gonna keep him I think. Gives me 5 home grown players with 43+ batting to work with now. Even if there are more mouths to feed! (i.e. training schedules and game time becomes a touch more difficult).

 

[StephenZA]

14 skill bump this week, not great, also not quite in the right places and player. Unfortunately Mthombeni did not bump in wk but did go up in stamina!

 

[Magrat Garlick]

13 pops. Kotze went to 34 bat/15 XP, 17yo seamer Arnold to 11 accuracy.

Friendly @ Moo today, not really much to say so far, drop of Fouche jr. at 19 could be costly though

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Yeah, it’s gonna be a long day out in the field chasing after boundary balls and retrieving balls that went for sixes.

 

[StephenZA]

Home dev friendly against Ashgrove Astronauts just started @Marcuss. Will be interesting as I have dropped a bowler for an extra batsman. Seeing how the allrounders cope with the extra responsibility.

 

[StephenZA]

Later also have a ODI friendly against @ataraxia. Have also dropped the bowler for a batsmen. An important match practice for tomorrow and the Cup on Sunday.

 

[StephenZA]

Will the double wicket over peg Morpork back?

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Skipper Jamil Gul picks up his first career wicket in Dev Fr. off his 99th ball.
Finally a bowling strike rate.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Two chances go a begging there in the last two balls if Vethanayagam’s over.

The fielding’s been TMO-esque

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Test match batting from Meyiwa and Tipping. I can't see these guys chasing 239.

Most likely thing to happen is getting bowled out before the 30th over.

 

[StephenZA]

Burger playing a blinder. Maybe performs better when he is the clear leader and needs to step up?

 

[Magrat Garlick]

30/5. Moooof.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Well, that was a walloping.

Positive: we got to 50.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Wow, that was a drubbing. Maybe that's the DEV XI I need to send out for CWC3
