Roy Kwong on 25 off 39 at the time of writing is stalling the FHK innings a bit but worse than that he's been involved in the runouts of 2 batters who made a collective 80 off 75
Now got 33 off his last 20 with Free HK needing 99 off the last 48 - last 2 overs have gone for 12 runs each - narrowly below asking rate - we need to remove him ASAP otherwise this is going down to the wire

Wouder Bernstein gets 2 wickets in 2 balls to wrap up the Free HK innings for 226. That Fairhurst innings proving the difference between the sides.

Meanwhile @cnerd123 v @JOJOXI episode 2 going to the wire. Winton CC 194/6 after 36 overs. 30 needed off final 24 balls with Shafiq 21 not out and Sotobe 1 not out at the crease

Statement victory from AtaraX Wellington!

Needing 7 from final 12 balls we have only gone and got 1 run from the next 9 balls whilst also losing a wicket!

Foster hits another 4 to win it, good game @cnerd123. Your side certainly outperforming their XPV, it felt like we had chase in a decent situation halfway through but slowdown turned it around, we picked it up and then with 7 needed off 12 you bowled yourself into a position where you were probably the favourites suddenly!

Got smashed , more than expected . About one to two seasons away from being competitive in def , might be a spoiler at the end of this tournament for some teams . However happy not to be completely last :laugh:
I had that experience with both my teams in CWC8 but playing party pooper at the end can be fun - albeit hopefully your team can surprise you in coming matches.

As to Fairhurst, he hasn't yet got out in seven innings in July. 464 runs between dismissals currently.

28 is a borderline insane friendly average for a young T20 pinch-hitter. Frost and Butler are each at 21 (though Butler strikes at 190 :ph34r:), and I'd tolerate some few less.

ZCC won their first game back up in T20 Div 1 :)

Hope we keep this up. A long run at Div 1 is what we need to rebuild our bank balance

To commence a two-match Dev series hosted by AXI against AX–W, pinch-hitter James Mortimer pulled one out of the hat, scoring a remarkable 128 (76) punctuated by eight sixes. A characteristically adept performance from the home team's top order brought them to 252, but it proved well insufficient thanks to Mortimer's innings, and able assistance from Mark Hurst. The series will culminate with the next CWC9 fixture.
