Fantastic start against Ironshire...

bowled 1st and had them 7-3 after 3 overs

they are fighting back however, and at some speed too

101-4  after 17 overs

my openers were supposed to be the bedrock of my batting cant believe the both went out first over
they are the only 2 of my first team from friday
3rd guy in is no surprise he went out as he has worthless stamina

cook is a slogger i was hoping he would hit a few run off the final few overs
guess thats not going to happen
the 2 left in now
1 is a WK i was going to train him up but decided the nets would be better else where so he is just cover for sayce now
the other is going to be a first team player once his stamina gets up one or two levels
i have no batting left once you get these 2 out

i am impressed with the run rate of 6.0 but with no wickets left on a flat pitch i will fail to make the 340 i need

But these guys are tanking along so you never know

Also has anyone else lost their connection to battrick?

The youth system is a bit of a gamble, I haven't spent a penny on it yet - I decided to buy some trainees instead, they were expensive but the risk was much less which was the deciding factor for me - I didn't want to be left with no money and no decent trainees.

To be honest with my bowling attack that wouldnt be too surprising

However they're doing me proud holding the RR down

189-4 from 36

I keep gettting disconnected from the site today - not sure why.  It seems to be working in spells and then going down.

Anyone else having a similar problem?

My bowling attack seem to have their heads on today

Lenka*    86 (80 balls)
Abbey   60 (97 balls)

1st ball of the over giving Lenka the single then 5 dot balls in a row Smiley

Tis one way to keep the score down

I'm hoping its related to the pitch type but my batsmen are scoring at an agonisingly slow pace vs Wardonkey today.  Barely 4 an over.

Need a big final 10 overs to put a competitive score up, but its a puzzle to me.

I like to think it is my tactical nous and superb squad selection that is keeping the runrate down...

The pitch improves rapidly and Sheriff tonks 34 off two overs from my best bowlers...
