    Smashed 'em by 184 runs today. Not bad with a complete Second XI team.
     
  2. Starris ER Starris

    unlucky Shiv... GG Steeley!!!
     
  3. Starris ER Starris

    I got smoked but then my team was supposed to lose!

    Was closer than I was expecting.
     
  4. Steeley J Steele

    Cheers man! just looked team I'm facing in the next round tied in the first and got through on highest ranked shit.

    Outrates me by 10k so may as well give it a crack I reckon.
     
  5. Starris ER Starris

    if you aren't worried about fatigue.
    He might pull a Shiv - sorry Shiv I know you are hurting from last nights shock result!
     
  6. Steeley J Steele

    That is a problem, but I don't think I've played a full XI in any game so far so I reckon I might be able to scrape it.

    Not sure if it's really worth it though.
     
  7. Starris ER Starris

    If I had enough quality players I'd do it for the money...
     
  8. Steeley J Steele

    Yeah that's fair but I don't think I would get past round three. So if I'm thinking like that I may as well throw the match on Sunday.
     
  9. Starris ER Starris

    fair call... was gutted mine was an away... he had a 5000 stadium!!!

    Pleased with that. Nice summary with reasonable form and it'll be interesting to see how the power affects his bowling. Have popped him onto fielding for the moment.

    stinkish pull... stinkish pops.

    Lost my Pavilion Cup match by 129 runs. Not entirely surprising. Good experience for De Blaauw, captaining the side and scoring his first SOD century. My side rated under 100k.

    Only one good pop. Laurens Mouris' fielding up to average. Should go up pretty fast thanks to his talent.

    Another useless player. Gonna keep him 'cause he's better than my FTP assigned filler.
     
  13. Starris ER Starris

    I swear promotion to div 3 has stuffed my team recently... across all facets of the game... I'm having the worst run... I forgot my orders in my freindly so I have a full strength side against Villanine and they are just doing average... few months back I was pounding him!!! is there such a thing as a slump in FTP?
     
  14. Iridium IT Lee

    Usually when you promote you face stronger teams. So there's always a chance you'll have a bad run.
     
  15. Starris ER Starris

    But this is in a friendly and I always smash him!!!

    it gets worse!!!

    F. Ayres 7-0-32-3, S. Booth 13 (19b), G. Fitzsimmons 0 (1b)

    End of over 35 (1 run) - The Slack Caps(163-7) RR 4.66


    34.6
    .
    Ayres to Fitzsimmons : That's a cracking delivery from Ayres, and Fitzsimmons just manages to fend it off. McInnes claps and encourages Ayres.


    S. Merkel c R. Smith b. F. Ayres 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
    34.5
    W
    Ayres to Merkel : [catch] Fuller in length and wide outside the off stump, Merkel goes for an expansive drive and the ball goes straight to Smith at backward point. The bat turned at the point of impact and the ball went high up towards the fielder who timed his jump perfectly.


    A. Nadarajah b. F. Ayres 0 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
    34.4
    W
    Ayres to Nadarajah : A near unplayable delivery from Ayres. Pitched on a good length, sharply jagged back in and kept cruelly low, Nadarajah left flailing his bat at thin air as his off stump does cartwheels.


    34.3
    .
    Ayres to Nadarajah : Great ball from Ayres hits the seam and causes Nadarajah to play and miss outside the off stump. Lucky not to edge that one. No run.


    34.2
    .
    Ayres to Nadarajah : Ayres drops one in short. Nadarajah licks his lips, but can't connect properly and the ball grazes his gloves, landing just short of Letren's outstretched gloves. Close one there and Ayres can count himself lucky to not be fetching that one from the top tier.


    J. Cronje c & b. F. Ayres 26 (42b 2x4 0x6) SR:61.90
    34.1
    W
    Ayres to Cronje : [catch] Cronje hands Ayres a routine return catch! The grin on Ayres's face says it all.


    34.1
    nb
    Ayres to Cronje : The game is delayed as a dachshund is running loose in the outfield. And you can tell he's a fast bowler because he's got four short legs and his balls are swinging both ways. Ayres eventually bowls, and it's left alone by Cronje.
