The Colts Thread

[cameeel]

Hey all, I'm back but I am almost unbelievably sick... So much for playing three games of cricket this week!
Anywhoo, I'm about to head off to bed again, but could someone quickly just reiterate how we're going for me? I cbf looking backwards coz my head throbs.
GO COLTS!

We're last on the table i think, 2-4 or something similar

Ouch, alrighty, thanks for that Cameeel. Well, what's gone wrong? Although I'm not really surprised that we're bottom (we're first-year Colts, remember) I do think that we could overtake Green and Black, it's just a matter of gelling everything together.
Keep up the good work fellas.

We had a couple of good wins, i think we beat red or black, but the last 2 games have been let downs

Have you got any ideas for what's been going wrong? What areas have we been lacking in?

Basically we have been getting off to good starts in both first class and one dayers but our middle order hasn't gone on with the job, except on the odd occasion. Our bowling lacks early penetration, however our bowlers don't usually go for a lot of runs.

Middle order batting, and wicket taking, i don't think i've taken many. 1 MOTM though

EDIT: Sorry, didnt see Mr. Wrights post, should of refreshed the screen

 

[wrangler203]

its seems that we re much more suited to the fc game, rather than the od one?

Thats ok, there must be a reason why its First Class, and besides, its because i'm in the FC team

 

[Dizzy #4]

It's because we're a team that gets better as the match goes on!

1 days don't give us time!

 

[NZTailender]

Excellent win there Colts

 

[King_Ponting]

yeh stuff colts

 

[cameeel]

Excellent win Colts, Great batting by Towns and Jasothoran.

Good spread of wickets amongst the bowlers, with a couple of us getting 3, 4 and 5

 

[Dizzy #4]

fantastic win, unliky twice Towns, I hear you're still yet to get a ton!

 

[Loony BoB]

Yeah, I have a habit of making scores but never being able to go on in games that count. That OD 100 I got early this season was my first A-List OD. I have, however, made a few centures (3 to 6, I never counted) in friendly games against full-on FC sides - hence my frustration!

 

[crickhowell]

17 and 30, at least i made in both innings, it's a change from 30 or so and 0. The second dig is usually the one I have a problem with

 

[chooka_nick]

Well thanks for the replies Cameel and Kyle, and of course well done to the boys (and bad luck to Towns) on that great win, the game was there for the taking and we took it!

Well done to Brown, a good effort. Lets get back on track, and see if we can establish some consistent performances up to, and after, the break.

 

[NZTailender]

Not my greatest performance.
Good job, Brown, though!
