Neil, is there any way I could bat at 6 in the OD?
I'm happy with the way things stand at the moment - there's no one else I'd want to see at five, plus Mike has made six his own of late.

^ Fair enough

Looks like we could be heading for titles in all 3 forms of the game, lets not slip up here.

Don't retire. There's always room for improvement. We'll be adding some sort of training points programme next season and possibly a new team to give players such as yourself more of an opportunity. Stick about.

I'm the only win to post on that great win, and I didn't even play???

Oh well. Our bowlers bowled great throughtout the match, and Thompson was brilliant. My replacement Jones went all right aswell :-O

The problem with this is I did bowl well each time I have played (Even for 2 overs) The program they use only allows 1 set of bowling rules. Until this is changed I am retired.

And since I don't think it will be changed.


Good luck Blacks its been fun.

Lol. The program has manual selection of bowlers. The reason you didn't bowl much was because you weren't needed in the particular situation. Talk to your skipper. He'll explain it all.

I got 2 overs in a game where a part timer got more then me.... Surely since I am a full time bowler I should bowl more (If I am not bowling bad) If I was bowling bad I can see this and I would have had no complaints but being that I was bowling alright there should have been more overs from me. :)


Meh whatever don't know why I am discussing this. Please Neil don't select me in any squads (not that you would as I would never bowl) As I am out of this.

That's not a very cool attitude. If you're going to give up that easily, you'll never get anywhere in cricket. Keep with it and you'll get there. :)
