Title: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 13, 2007, 12:13:48 PM Bot bashing for me, new PFL changes mean they're lasting slightly longer though!
End of Over 28 (2 runs). MCC World X11: 39-6, runrate=1.39 Hopefully mop them up soon and reach 360 to declare by the end of the day (away match). Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 13, 2007, 12:24:33 PM 5 wicket haul for (one of) my new bowler(s). Happy days!
Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: divaflava on November 13, 2007, 12:47:04 PM return match sees Tzaneen, Ndebele and Dugdale join Kerwin poolside ahead of two crunch OD games this week and next (well, four counting BC games).
Anyway 143-0 and cruising at lunch. Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bazzaboy on November 13, 2007, 02:16:09 PM End of Over 54 (Maiden). Worse than Beefcake: 111-10, runrate=2.06
Perry 8-2-6-1 Shaw* 9 (13 balls) Beat them by an innings in first match and going well here. Back in with an outside chance of top 4 if I win this. Just lost a wicket first ball which I could have done without as I need to get max batting points. Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 13, 2007, 02:37:20 PM End of Over 25 (3 runs). Bigglesthwaite CC: 112-1, runrate=4.48
Musn't grumble, have my decent batters lower down the order just incase though! (was unsure how the new PFL changes would make the bot play) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 13, 2007, 02:46:58 PM Well that was a good bok then!
End of Over 28 (9 runs). Bigglesthwaite CC: 126-3, runrate=4.50 Lucky I did put some decent players in, otherwise I would be missing out on precious bonus points! Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: booder on November 13, 2007, 02:51:39 PM going well
End of Over 67 (1 runs, 4lb). norfolkngood: 282-2, runrate=4.21 Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: amcgrath1uk on November 13, 2007, 03:12:15 PM End of Over 71 (2 runs). Staples015: 384-3, runrate=5.41 Wilkshire 18-2-82-1 Turley* 139 (167 balls) Mcewan 125 (156 balls) Last Wicket: Mpho c. Wallis b. Tulley 28 (FOW: 108/3) Due to declare at 400, so hoping for a good few wickets tonight Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: amcgrath1uk on November 13, 2007, 03:38:15 PM the team finished their innings with a bang
End of Over 74 (13 runs). Staples015: 404-3, runrate=5.46 Tulley 15-1-83-1 Mcewan* 142 (166 balls) Turley 142 (175 balls) Last Wicket: Mpho c. Wallis b. Tulley 28 (FOW: 108/3) Now to take quick, cheap, early wickets 0.2 W Doyle to Gwynne Gwynne trips and falls over, easily run out Thats the way to do it 2.2 4 Doyle to Tucker Late cut, into the gap and over the boundary at backward point. NAUGHTY Tucker 2.3 W Doyle to Tucker Tucker shuffles across his stumps to a ball of fullish length from Doyle. Trapped plumb in front. Think Doyle was annoyed conceding that boundary??? Great start have them 6-2 Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: divaflava on November 13, 2007, 03:54:51 PM LOL, must've been.
Both openers got tons but no-one else has got going, 331-5 off 83 and unlikely to reach declaration target (405) off 95 overs as planned, still might squeeze a few overs in before end of the day, assuming Parkinson has another decent knock at 7. The manager is content. Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: divaflava on November 13, 2007, 04:16:24 PM hmm 374-6 off 89, Parkinson out after a quickfire 29.
edit: my batters have gone into 20/20 mode, just passed the 405 in the 93rd over :) (407-6dec) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bazzaboy on November 13, 2007, 04:49:41 PM Slooooooooooooooooooooow progress for me in my reply. Was hoping to rattle in the runs quickly to try and get the game finished inside 2 days.
End of Over 42 (2 runs). KBOTW: 111-1, runrate=2.64 Scores are level. (Worse than Beefcake 111-10) Abdul kadir 1-0-2-0 Hadland* 39 (128 balls) Harris 68 (125 balls) Last Wicket: Bowler b. Henman 0 (FOW: 0/1) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: amcgrath1uk on November 13, 2007, 05:08:33 PM very slow scoring by my opponents, and I am taking a few wickets
End of Over 27 (1 runs). LewisStars: 65-4, runrate=2.41 Trail by 339 runs. (Staples015 404-3 dec) Hyams 4-0-12-0 Bloomfield* 19 (33 balls) Granville 7 (18 balls) Last Wicket: Sykes c. Birchall b. Downes 15 (FOW: 42/4) 1 more to get me into the tail please Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bazzaboy on November 13, 2007, 05:09:37 PM Max batting points now in doubt as I only bat to 6 in this match. Another abject failure from Morgan, I've tried him in just about every batting position and cannot get any consistency from him. Meyer will help the run rate but need him to hang around and make a score.
End of Over 48 (5 runs, 1lb). KBOTW: 143-3, runrate=2.98 Lead by 32 runs. (Worse than Beefcake 111-10) Abdul kadir 4-0-15-1 Harris* 74 (137 balls) Meyer 14 (9 balls) Last Wicket: Morgan c. Dowie b. Pratley 1 (FOW: 127/3) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 13, 2007, 05:13:45 PM End of Over 66 (13 runs). Bigglesthwaite CC: 353-5, runrate=5.35
Could have been better, still on for a max points win though, PFL hits shouldn't be too bad so I can't really complain! Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Ironside on November 13, 2007, 05:21:58 PM team is raking up runs against me to insure it lasts 2 days so he gets his gate
oh dear hope he puts in too hoigh a total Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: amcgrath1uk on November 13, 2007, 05:51:33 PM very slow scoring by my opponents, and I am taking a few wickets End of Over 27 (1 runs). LewisStars: 65-4, runrate=2.41 Trail by 339 runs. (Staples015 404-3 dec) Hyams 4-0-12-0 Bloomfield* 19 (33 balls) Granville 7 (18 balls) Last Wicket: Sykes c. Birchall b. Downes 15 (FOW: 42/4) 1 more to get me into the tail please finished the day on 94-6. Should be over tomorrow Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: divaflava on November 13, 2007, 05:59:47 PM got them at 46-4 :)
They did manage to hit two of my bowlers out of the attack though! Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Nakor on November 13, 2007, 06:05:16 PM Finished mine off in the day against my Non Bot opponent - he will be Bot soon admittedly.
53/10 off 33 overs. 375/1 from 50 - :) 35/10 off 25 overs. Some day. A few days rest and max points, happy days. Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bazzaboy on November 13, 2007, 08:20:02 PM I had an awful finish to the day leaving me on 189-5. No chance of max batting points now, will be lucky to get 2points. Also if opponents can put a decent score together in their second innings I might be vulnerable.
Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: amcgrath1uk on November 14, 2007, 11:30:54 AM Exciting morning watching my opponents bat
16 overs 11 runs 1 wicket zzzzzzzzzzzzzz Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 14, 2007, 11:53:20 AM My other new bowler has a 5 wicket haul now.
End of Over 26 (Maiden). MCC World X11: 56-6, runrate=2.15 (1st Inn: 40-10) Shouldn't be too much hassle - hopefully the bowler I want to play on friday won't have to bowl again :) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bazzaboy on November 14, 2007, 12:23:05 PM I ended up all out for 225 so thats 4 batting points down the drain, which could prove to be crucial at the end of the season. They are 33-2 in reply so one positive is it appears that I will get the match over and done with today.
Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bongo on November 14, 2007, 12:28:31 PM I've won :)
Best of luck bazza! Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Bazzaboy on November 14, 2007, 03:09:48 PM They are putting up a bit of resistance but with 40overs left should get it done and dusted today.
End of Over 54 (Maiden). Worse than Beefcake: 134-7, runrate=2.48 (1st Inn: 111-10) Lead by 20 runs. (KBOTW 225-10) Oneill 13-7-22-0 Lungile* 25 (43 balls) Abdul kadir 4 (23 balls) Last Wicket: Pratley b. Talamini 3 (FOW: 115/7) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: divaflava on November 14, 2007, 05:50:38 PM Well, my lot have got to come back again tomorrow. After skittling them for 103 they put up a much better effort in their second innings, reaching 255-8 at the close, still just less than 50 behind.
Still, should finish them off for an easy win before I can be bothered to get out of bed tomorrow :) Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Ironside on November 14, 2007, 06:10:22 PM End of Over 7 (2 runs). askam11: 25-1, runrate=3.57 (1st Inn: 831-10)
Lead by 822 runs. (Ironshire 34-10) best hope for me is that the guy doesnt log in forgets to set a target and bats all day as i dont think my batsmen will last long Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: amcgrath1uk on November 14, 2007, 09:50:44 PM Won easily enough by an innings and 167 runs. With 2 places seemingly going up in FC, I've practically wrapped the league up
Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: divaflava on November 15, 2007, 02:36:34 PM Good on yer. I won, to put me back to second. Just have to hope Mr96Kaweek wages is feeling drained by the time I face them again at the end of the season. Now for the crunch OD game this friday :)
Title: Re: Battrick FC 13/11 Post by: Ironside on November 15, 2007, 06:14:57 PM i made 13 in my 2nd innings i think i lost
