14.3   W   Blair to McLaughlin : That's plumb! McLaughlin is checking the edge of his bat as if to indicate that he got something on it, but the replays show he was nowhere near it. Off you go son!
G. McLaughlin lbw b. F. Blair 29 (23b 2x4 0x6) SR:126.09

Shame about that.

End of over 15 (11 runs) - Roo Boys!(116-4) RR 7.73
R. Naved 7 (2b) , F. Hafeez 34 (27b) , F. Blair 4-0-44-1

Going pretty well though.
15.1   6   Qureshi to Hafeez : The 12th man has his game of cards with the groundsman interrupted with the opportunity to catch the ball. Unfortunately for his team, it was a 6..... and he dropped it.

Hafeeee!

16.4   W   Prindiville to Hafeez : Hafeez has gone for a massive swipe, but has only managed to toe the ball in the air straight to Smith at mid-on.
F. Hafeez c B. Smith b. W. Prindiville 61 (38b 5x4 2x6) SR:160.53
16.3   4   Prindiville to Hafeez : And that's a lovely shot from Hafeez driven straight back past Prindiville for four, all along the ground!
16.2   4   Prindiville to Hafeez : [misfield] Smith failed to get down in time and the ball races away towards the sightscreen.
That is 50 runs for Hafeez (53 runs, 35b 3x4 2x6) SR:151.43
16.2   nb6   Prindiville to Hafeez : Wow! Just wow! Hafeez swats that through square leg. It stays flat and clears the boundary in no time. 6 runs.

Action packed 4 balls! Set up a big over too:
End of over 17 (23 runs) - Roo Boys!(150-5) RR 8.82
R. Naved 13 (4b) , A. Cullen 0 (0b) , W. Prindiville 3-0-40-1
18.1   W   Prindiville to Naved : [catch] Short ball, and hooked straight down the throat of the man in the deep! Out!
R. Naved c A. Crouch b. W. Prindiville 16 (7b 2x4 0x6) SR:228.57

Played a good innings.

18.4   W   Prindiville to Ali : Short ball, and hooked straight down the throat of the man in the deep! Out!
R. Ali c S. Darke b. W. Prindiville 2 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR:100.00

Can't exactly say the same for Ali.... ::)

End of over 20 (14 runs) - Roo Boys!(182-7) RR 9.10
A. Cullen 22 (11b) , S. Chiba 5 (2b) , E. Philpott 4-0-28-1

Very happy with that score, on a crumbler I should take home the win from here.

0.1 W Naved to Smith : [catch] Short ball, and hooked straight down the throat of the man in the deep! Out!
B. Smith c G. McLaughlin b. R. Naved 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00

What a start!
1.2 W Ali to Darke : Gone! Sharp bouncer from Ali and it nicks the glove on the way through, Cullen makes no mistake and the umpire raises a pudgy finger. Sarwan consoles Darke. A near unplayable delivery.
S. Darke c A. Cullen b. R. Ali 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00

WOOOHOOOO!

These are very good batsmen also :D :D

valkorum · March 01, 2011, 10:10:41 PM

Thats how my innings started and I still made 218

0.1 W Cobb to Findlay : That's gone straight to the third man boundary. Would have been a fine shot had it come from Findlay's bat. Sadly for him, it came off his off stump! Cobb celebrates as Findlay practices the shot he should have played.
A. Findlay b. H. Cobb 0 (1b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00

1.5   6   Ali to Hamilton : That's gone like a tracer bullet over the fence at extra cover.

See, they can bat :-\

2.4 W Naved to Hamilton : Hamilton plays all around a straight delivery from Naved and the stumps are scattered.

6.1 6 Chiba to Sarwan : Chiba attempts the wrong-un but the ball just ends up at Sarwan's feet for him to smack over the boundary rope.

What's up with you today Chiba?
End of over 7 (9 runs) - The Revivals(49-3). 134 runs required from 13 overs. RR 7.00 RRR 10.31
A. Shea 17 (14b) , G. Sarwan 18 (18b) , S. Chiba 2-0-17-0

Getting spanked...

7.2 4 Teakles to Sarwan : [misfield] Decent shot by Sarwan, but made to look fantastic by some poor fielding on the boundary by Chiba who has given away a four! Teakles looks annoyed and so he should. 2 runs given away there

What is wrong with Chiba today? :o :o

7.5 lb4 Teakles to Sarwan : Teakles drifts that one very nicely. Oh, it's a flurry of bat, pad and gloves and the ball has gone between Cullen and Chiba at first slip. Did he hit that? The umpire thinks not and signals leg byes, but I think Sarwan is showing the umpire the back of his bat.
7.4 b4 Teakles to Sarwan : Great ball! Beats the bat, beats the stump and beats Cullen but it certainly didn't fool the boundary line. 4 byes.

OMFG CULLEN >:(

End of over 8 (12 runs) - The Revivals(61-3). 122 runs required from 12 overs. RR 7.62 RRR 10.17
G. Sarwan 22 (24b) , A. Shea 17 (14b) , A. Teakles 2-0-11-0

Teakles actuallly bowled well that over, just 4 runs came from a misfield and 8 from byes -.-
