I know I wish we could say good things about our players without them going out. Not a fluke either it has happened to me consistently since I signed up :\

44.4   W   Mguni to Mahesh : [catch] Ooh, Mahesh is driving without a licence, and he pays the penalty as he nicks it straight into the hands of Hyland.
B. Mahesh c M. Hyland b. B. Mguni 9 (7b 1x4 0x6) SR:128.57

Surprised he made 9 he has dreadful batting.

[CrowsFan]

Yeah happens to me all the time too. I am often too scared to say they are batting well, just post the score and that is it.
E.g. just said I was keeping the run rate down and they hit a boundary when I refresh it!

[Alex7089]

Ah yes. Anything can happen...Luckily it can work the other way as well (although not as often) like BP with his players speeding up. I swear the ME is spying on us :P

End of over 46 (12 runs) - Feeling Sheepish(376-9) RR 8.17
S. Junior 31 (23b) , A. Sodumo 0 (2b) , S. Holden 8-0-59-1

Well done Junior, good innings form one of my best.

[CrowsFan]

Don't say good innings. He will get out now!!

[Alex7089]

Well I won't see it cos FTP is loading slower than SC during the 180 minutes of mayhem.

[BratPack]

It isn't loading at all for me  >:(

[Alex7089]

Yeah neither. Since I posted that haven't loaded 1 page lol.

[BratPack]

Back just in time to see

W

Howlett to Ritchie : [catch]   Short ball, and hooked straight down the throat of the man in the deep! Out! E. Ritchie c R. Hutton b. J. Howlett 19 (18b 1x4 1x6) SR:105.56

;D ;D

S. Junior 54 (41b) , A. Sodumo 3 (8b) , S. Holden 10-0-70-1

Holy cow. Not only did I not get bowled out but Junior made 54* and SODUMO MADE 3 :O

[Alex7089]

1.2   W   Sodumo to Vernon : A hint of swing, a hint of an edge, a hint to the umpire and a hint of an index finger.
A. Vernon c A. Collins b. A. Sodumo 0 (2b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
SODUMO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd forgotten how much I loved you Abongile, your ability to strike early is uncanny.

[CrowsFan]

Great effort Alex :)
Can't see you losing a game that you post over 400 in ;)

11.6   W   van der Hoeven to Hunter : This has to be close...and he's gone! Hunter padded up to a ball that spun viciously out of the rough and could only watch in horror as it struck him in front of off stump.
R. Hunter lbw b. J. van der Hoeven 43 (44b 2x4 1x6) SR:97.73
End of over 12 (11 runs) - Hawka C.C(67-1). 187 runs required from 28 overs. RR 5.58 RRR 6.68
R. Sainsbury 0 (0b) , L. Owens 20 (31b) , J. van der Hoeven 2-0-15-1

Finally broke the opening partnership! :)

[BratPack]

10.1

W

Ryan to Ahmed : [catch]  Short down the leg side, it was close to the body. Ahmed looks to pull, gets a glove to it, and it goes straight into the gloves of Brouwer, who takes it gleefully. S. Ahmed c L. Brouwer b. R. Ryan 14 (12b 2x4 0x6) SR:116.67

I like this new boy  :)

[Alex7089]

Yeah I should be able to win this one. I expected to though :P

End of over 3 (2 runs) - WesternPrimes(9-1). 394 runs required from 47 overs. RR 3.00 RRR 8.38

N. Sesele 20 (44b) , D. Ramsay 5 (9b) , C. Smith 3-0-7-0

Close match between Zz and I. Reckon I can defend 190 on a slow/cloudy?
