I'm batting rather well on a TIE today - much better than I did last week, against a worse team, on GFI.
I think that is one thing that is not well understood yet, there was a post on sledging about it too...

4 Ainsley to Collis I don't believe it! Collis attempted the reverse sweep and hit it beautifully for four! Ainsley looks on in sheer disbelief! And that's his fifty! Well played. And my opener went for 61. Good batting all round so far. I'm doing somewhat annoyingly well today. My batsmen have shown up and look like posting a decent target, although my opposition have a very strong batting lineup. May live to regret TIE as this looks like a game that could have been won. Oh and the inconsistency of my batsmen is driving me insane they either post 250+ or get skittled for less than 150 no middle ground I felt the same after last weeks loss. If I hadn't TIE I would have gotten something out of game. Yogi |

how can you be so certain that you would win games you lost by playing TIE? How can you ask a professional sportsman to not play to his full potential? tsk tsk  |

I dunno Matt. It just felt that way. I think my team only plays well when they GFI. Did the last half of last season on it.
Just lost 2nd wicket out for 134.
What I feel is my best batsmen is in now.
Prob be out whilst I type this.

Im homing in on the 300 mark. Not sure it will be enough as they have batsmen with 90k, 70k, 40k and 30k BTRs. Trying to get message out to bowlers to GFI |

My opener averages 20 this season, not very good I know.
He just got out for 96 (oppos best bowler came back into the attack), and I'm TIEing today.
He seems to have hung around longer, scoring at a slightly lower S/R to normal.

My no.5 took that option too...first ball. Costing me valuable runs as I was flying before my centurion got out.

Tell a lie, 8 and 10 are resolutely blocking away hoping to pick up a run from an extra somehow.
