Sounds like a good lineup, gah it's hard to get a look-in with the quality of our guys in the lineup right now. Gotta keep putting in long hours at the nets and the gym and wait for an injury I suppose :D

Ahhh, thanks for the praise fellaz, but I would hardly call it a return to form :D My bowling in ODs has been consistent (nothin amazing mind) but my FC bowling is where its at. Unless I put in a good performance this game, Im dropping myself (if I can before Liam does :p ) for the next one. I cant keep underperforming with quality players waiting to surge up! Looking for a big one this game then! :)

Go the Blues!

I'm working real hard to increase my fitness level, to be able to maintain my pace for more than four overs at a time.

Hopefully i don't injure myself doing so.

Wholeheartidly appreciate first OD birth, and will continue to work on my pace in the nets to try and break into the 5day team at some stage during the season :)

Congratulations on getting the first win! Overall brilliant team effort.

My thoughts for the team for the next 5D...

SJ Fitzsimmons *
BL Wilshere
RGEWS Cribb
PE Young
A Crampton +
SE Fuller
SC Popat
TC Halsey
MP Phillips
AAA Collins
NL Patrick

That's Crampton given a shot with the gloves and Jellett given a reality check. Young moves to #4 to stabilize the middle order and Wilsher brought in and set to play the anchor role opening alongside Fitzsimmons. I liked the look of Cribb at #3 in the last game, so I'd back him there. Patrick and Collins remain as they're proven bowlers who deserve another shot. Still, it's time to step up.

How does that look guys? All suggestions and comments (by BLUE players) are welcome.

Looks good. Nice to know that there's a few young players knocking on the door if anybody slips up, as well. I'm happier batting at 5 or 6 than 7, as well.

Well done guys, as dinu23 says our luck seems to be changing, or maybe we're preparing better for games. Good to see all the bowlers getting into the wickets as well :D

The turnaround in form seems to coincide with me being dropped from OD matches :(... I mean :). Go team! :p
