No probs, thought is was getting interesting when i needed like 14-15 per over with my two best bats in, but your side was too good. :)
Once again, i need to reconsider my bowling tactics, i think they are costing me games.

Hopefully i will be seeing you there McRooster. Just have to get past the italian maestro  ;)

End of over 14 (4 runs) - Angry Beavers(101-5) RR 7.21
D. Mangan 14 (9b) , J. Gale 1 (1b) , M. Armstrong 3-0-11-2

13.6   1   Armstrong to Gale : Cuts fiercely through the infield, but the cover sweeper does well to keep them down to a single.

13.5   W   Armstrong to Simmons : Ouch! A great inswinging yorker crashes into Simmons's back foot. They all go up in a huge appeal and finally the umpire's finger goes up. Interestingly, not only does the replay show that was going well down leg side, it also shows Simmons had limped nearly a whole leg bye before the finger went up. Insult to injury...
T. Simmons lbw b. M. Armstrong 2 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR:66.67

13.4   2   Armstrong to Simmons : Short ball, hooked away by Simmons. King cuts it off just inside the rope, and the batsmen run 2.

13.3   .   Armstrong to Simmons : Oh dear, that's pure village. Feet planted, head in the air, Simmons takes a blind swing across the line. Nowhere near it.

13.2   W   Armstrong to Shezi : Well that delivery has simply blown Shezi's house down like it was made of straw! Armstrong is the big bad wolf who's made this little piggy go 'wee wee wee' all the way back to the pavilion. What big ears he has...
B. Shezi b. M. Armstrong 42 (32b 2x4 1x6) SR:131.25

13.1   1   Armstrong to Mangan : [great fielding] Mangan does his best to keep the runs ticking over and absolutely belts Armstrong through cover. Good fielding by Else saves the boundary but there was nothing he could do to stop the batsmen scampering through for a single.

That over hurt, needed shezi to stay in  :(

[Doogie]

19.1   2   Kennedy to Beete : [missed runout] Beete plays a cover drive towards the boundary. Gostelow gathers the ball but the return is wide of the stumps and the batsmen just scrape home.
   
End of over 19 (5 runs) - Luigi Industries(129-8). 8 runs required from 1 overs. RR 6.79 RRR 8.00
M. Armstrong 12 (6b) , J. Beete 1 (1b) , G. Knott 4-0-22-3

18.6   1   Knott to Beete : [dropped] Oh my God - I can't believe it's not butter on Mangan's fingers. That was a simple catch and Mangan grassed it. Knott doesn't look very impressed.

>:( >:( >:(
Your kidding..  ::)
