Post by: Ironside on December 21, 2007, 11:03:40 AM
playing a bot

strong team though but with worthless form and fresh fitness wont be too much trouble

Should be an easy game for me today.

My destructive fast bowler has recovered some form (now woeful!) and has just put in a cracking spell:
Hall 5-1-4-1
Wicket was first ball of the innings!

Can't wait for him to get up to Superb form and start tearing teams apart ;)

Also bot bashing. Not expecting anything but an easy win

My all rounder's PFL was only invigorated before the game so there was no way he was going to bowl - I wanted to include him them to add some strength to my batting (he's my 3rd best bat!) so I made him WK (he has feeble WK, and good secondaries/fielding) and he's gone and picked up a stumping!

Should help his experience slightly :)

i am making heavy work of there heavy hitting batsman  who has an 11k battrick rating dispite being worthless form

but rr is still low and my batsmen should be able to knock off the runs quick against his out of form and tired bowlers

End of Over 41: 123-10, runrate=3.00
Hall 6-2-4-3

Nice figures in the end! Just noticed the team has gone bot, although they are 5th in the league.

Still, should be plain sailing from here :)

Could be tight - you should be ok for now, but his most damaging bowler will be up for another 5 over spell overs 21-29.

Hopefully you can have it mostly won by then!

Table toppng shootout today....ok only against a bot but one that looks ok on paper.

Batted first for solid 320-2 and have reduced them to 33-6 in reply so looking good. 

Might have to think again on my all rounder who I was thinking of selling.  He's comp bat/bowl and even allowing for him having no secondaries whatsoever has consistently underperformed even in one dayers.

Today I've pushed him up order and opened bowling with result of 91* and 3-14 so far so my have to think again. :dontask:

You called that pretty much spot on.  Should be home and hosed now.  Second time this year my top order have decided to take the day off against a bot...I'd rather they didn't.

End of Over 21: 120-4, runrate=5.71, reqrunrate=0.90 (145-10)
Wigg 1-0-6-0
Harris* 56 (51 balls)
Edgerley-harris 39 (40 balls)
 
Last Wicket: Beattie lbw b. Carstens 7 (FOW: 34/4)

Just read this back and have decided that I'm master of the understatement!   ;sark;

Now I'm quietly confident........ ;angel;

And that's the end of the match. Athletico Foxy won by 271 runs.
Athletico Foxy 320-2
Tyldesley CC 49-10

Now 4pts clear.....huge advantage in runrate......final game vs poor bot......double promotion for Athletico Foxy I think!   ;woohoo;

Sold out the new Magician Stadium in its first OD outing - another bloody expansion needed.

Managed a win today to ensure no play off down.

Two games to go and I have the top of the league in both games.
Not a chance in the FC match so might have to save the best 11 for next Friday ;)  what you think Ram?

i have never sold out my 15000 stadium but thats not surprising really seeing as i am in an impossible FC league and a hard OD league and for the past 2 seasons i have only rarely gained any fans

Scored 354-3 from my 50 overs...my new batter opened and scored 130 from 115 deliveries.  My wk scored 99no from 76 deliveries which was annoying. My no 5 scored 43no from 23 deliveries!!

In reply bowled them out in the 22nd over for 84.

Thats 13/13 in OD as well as FC :)
