This is a mini-tournament CWC 8... not the proper next one. Its a knock out (from my understanding) first to top of hill...

@cnerd123 great game today between ZCC and TMOs in a first up 50 over... well done on the win. Halliday taking it home for you (well as close as possible!).

I didn't expect the pitch to be that dry when I set my orders! Would have used more Younis/given Chester a bigger role.

Went in with a younger XI too by resting Raun and Heshan so that's a good win.

Yeah just a mini tournament - I think CWC8 is a T20 comp (will start signups later this week) just liked the idea of a Knockout comp on neutral grounds

@cnerd123 feel like a bit of a dick because I played Levy and Davidson in the Dev competition. Apologies. Both will age out within a week maybe 2 and not likely to make it through the tournament. But really wanted to give them a swan song!

Charminster pulverizing Mooo’s inexperienced bowling lineup (barring Gul and Hadi Hafeez)

And Ataraxia is demolishing GG CC…not a good start to CWC dev

Won't begrudge anyone chasing CWC gold!

Ok got it everyone thanks - so a win here means u r into the last 8 of this 'non ranking' tournament ?!

a few surprises there.... JoJo will be pleased with his double whammy after a punishing last tournament

FHK squeaked past Sherlocks by 1 wicket to make it into R2

Meanwhile Raun has finally scored some runs in an ODI!

I will make sure that the next time he plays a match I mail him just after it starts and advise that...'the game's afoot' !

Forgot that TNT was also playing in the tournament.... and won! Pretty pleased with that. Good team building at The Nets...

 

[Jarquis]

Cruel timing for thé AAs - Faiz Umair is a prospect, Haidar Khattak he is not

Same here lol, but a good win for you because AX-W is a quietly good Dev team. Certainly think playing Levy/Davidson is fine lol – Simmonds missed out by a day or so for AXI!

Massive stuff from Butler, ably supported by makeshift opener Oakes. Good stuff that win.

 

[Jarquis]

Anyone else have their scouting report and coaching happening on the same day today?

Er, yes

 

[Jarquis]

Khattak got capped

 

[Charlie B]

How does that happen that suddenly out of the blue coaching runs a day early. I am no coder but would it not have required some sort of manual intervention as week in week out it must run+7 - i can only think it has something to do otherwise with the month of February being short

You could say ( and it probably will be) it does not matter but for anyone planning to make changes to their nets in the 24 hours before the normal timings - this will impact them

Interesting also that it has run but no little message on the front page news for it telling you how many ups and downs you have this week- guess that will turn up tomorrow!

 

[Jarquis]

Also means one less coaching session for new pulls…

With TMO current scouting, this is not an issue....
