Haha, no way, you still should beat me.

End of over 15 (9 runs) - Roo Boys!(121-5) RR 8.07
A. Cullen 6 (4b) , W. Makinson 40 (28b) , P. Law 4-0-31-1

Looks like 180+ isn't on the cards.

Well I could get another batsman, but batting isn't my problem, Bowling is and there's no bowlers I like before tomorrow that can play

roo boys! · March 03, 2011, 09:50:09 PM

That is 50 runs for Makinson (50 runs, 34b 5x4 1x6) SR:147.06

0.1 b4 Stevenson to Sanders : Outside the off stump and comes back in to Sanders, who is sliced into half. What's depressing for Stevenson is that the keeper is also beaten and concedes four byes.

My innings started with a wicket and his with 4 byes..can't be good ::)

The combined age of Hilly's two batsmen is 61, while the age of the two bowlers is 51. That's unfair :P

EDIT: 2.5 W Stevenson to Evans : A shot full of composure, style and grace, unfortunately the ball went through the gate and knocked over all three stumps. Good finishing pose though.
S. Evans b. T. Stevenson 9 (9b 0x4 0x6) SR:100.00

There goes the 32 year old!

Failed 2/2 fielding checks so far, both have gone for four.

End of over 4 (10 runs) - Hillly's Heroics(39-1). 133 runs required from 16 overs. RR 9.75 RRR 8.31
S. Sanders 20 (11b) , S. Ngilu 6 (4b) , A. Qasim 2-0-17-0

Well the opening bowlers gone, and their "enjoyment of extra bounce available" ::)
4.2 W Naved to Sanders : This my friends is what we call a fruit salad. A peach of a delivery from Naved that cut back onto the stumps, the batsman appearing to play his shot like he'd stepped on a banana skin and was obviously plum(b) before Sanders walked back to the pavilion looking redder than a watermelon.
S. Sanders lbw b. R. Naved 20 (12b 3x4 0x6) SR:166.67

He was killing me.
