The Blue Thread

Looks like we might be a bit short on players with the internationals and Wilshere's injury, but I doubt the whole lot of internationals will be picked so we should be OK.

 

[Jamee999]

ooh 138 runs and 31 wickets for the 200/2000 double i think.

is it only Bhatia and Halsey that have done this already?

Eddie.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Eddie.

He actually only took 153 wickets and scored 1574 runs. He played just 40 FC games though, and 28 of those were Tests. Outside of Tests, he took 46 wickets and scored 498 runs.

Humble apologies to the team for smashing Ben's elbow in the nets. With all of the 'suspension' thing still floating around I guess I was just angry and venting it out on the batsmen during the nets sessions.

Sorry Ben, sorry team.

 

[dinu23]

next time ur feeling angry just let me know ok, before i face u in the nets.

 

[Travis_Teh]

On a personal note, I just got my 100th FC wicket in the game against the reds
JE Stedman was the unlucky batsmen.

Okay, we just lost to the reds, but i do believe we are still up there this season. A lot of our players are regularily getting runs and doing it with the ball, our fielding is a concern though. Heads up, lets get back on the victory trail

 

[dinu23]

congrats Travis! keep going.

 

[Travis_Teh]

on top at the halfway point guys. Let us have an equally good second half to the season

 

[The Baconator]

Are we looking to get any trades in, with the window open or is the squad fine how it is?

 

[Simon]

Some big games coming up in the next week or so, its shaping up to be a better season that it was last year, but we need to keep the performances going...

 

[Travis_Teh]

Yeah, half way through now. Need to keep it up and get into the FC final and definetly have a good crack at the OD one also

Good luck to everyone for their second half

 

[BlackCap_Fan]

Hi, sorry I havn't been very active. I see that the loss of skill hasn't affected my batting too much =D .

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Are we looking to get any trades in, with the window open or is the squad fine how it is?

Ideally I'd like to get another specialist seamer in, so we can have a bit of rotation and leeway down the stretch, but I'm happy with the squad overall. Of course, if anyone would like to be traded, he can contact me at bugs at tstt [dot] net (dot) tt

 

[Nate]

How about that local sporting team? Congrats Travis on your 100th.

 

[Nate]

Just seen the stats... and we`re dominating. Except for Green, but shmeh. Incredible bowling by Travis and Adz, backed up by Sean. And everyone is contributing to the batting. Let`s back up this first half of the season.

 

[Travis_Teh]

Yay, milestone number two for the season.... just managed to get 50 FC career runs up against the blacks.
Ha ha.

Awseome game guys, lets keep this team work up, and continue to stay on top of the ladder
Good luck to everyone involved in the upcoming one dayer.

 

[Nate]

Not a one-dayer! Hah, I suck in the shorter version. Lift me up fellas.

 

[dinu23]

I don't think i have a big enough jack to lift u Nath!

 

[Nate]

Bad choice of words, birthday bub.

 

[BlackCap_Fan]

I see that in my latest match I was in for at least 90 balls longer than Jellet, Crampton and Currie but scored only around 5 runs more.

And only 24 balls to get 0.

Heheh. Rahul Dravid, eat your heart out.
