Boomz, why challenge me? Now that I have even Stone I can't even hit 150K ratings...

The only thing that is going to happen in a game between us is you absolutely flogging my squad.

[PowerBug]

Wonder if he'll get to WC/WC - with Gifted Tech I think it's a chance...

If this guy trains him in power he could hit World Class summary in reas form... and perhaps even elite summary when in rel form!

Depends what he gets trained in I guess.

He can't do anything else though ;) So i'd train him in something else, he can already bat.

End of over 46 (maiden) - Cicjose(187-10) RR 4.07
R. Addison 14 (22b) , R. Schulting 7.1-1-16-3

Just finished Cic off for 187 in the 46th. Not going to be easy but i have two AR's playing today, new recruit Merchant at six and Livingston at 8.

I'm stuck on what to train this guy on first? Bowling, Batting or get a fielding pop?

[PowerBug]

First ten overs down in the chase, i'm 1/35.

End of over 10 (3 runs) - PowerBugCC(35-1). 153 runs required from 40 overs. RR 3.50 RRR 3.82
G. Tonge 16 (30b) , D. Budden 10 (16b) , R. Addison 5-0-12-0

Wardlaw was the only loss. He fell to Ellis.

[Cicjose]

except that Addison has been my best bowler in the first 10

End of over 20 (2 runs) - The Nailers(104-1) RR 5.20
M. Christie 43 (59b) , R. Simon 2 (8b) , J. Stokes 10-0-57-0

Too slow on a sunny/flat or am I in a decent position?

[Cicjose]

if Christie is set to defensive your doing okay

[Nails]

Yeah Christie is set to D...

21.4   W   van der Bilt to Simon : Bowled him!! That's the end of Simon, excellent delivery from van der Bilt, right in the blockhole, had no chance of hitting that. Simon's innings comes to an end.
R. Simon b. R. van der Bilt 9 (15b 1x4 0x6) SR:60.00


Ugh, spanner in the works... I really need a deeper batting lineup, shouldn't have spent 130K on a bowler, need an AR or another batter badly.

[Nails]

25.5   W   van der Bilt to Yogish : [catch] van der Bilt strikes! It was outside the off stump, Yogish a bit lazy with the drive through the off side, gets the edge through to Wilson behind the wicket, who takes the catch at a comfortable height.
A. Yogish c S. Wilson b. R. van der Bilt 10 (15b 1x4 0x6) SR:66.67

End of over 26 (1 run) - The Nailers(131-3) RR 5.04
M. Christie 51 (72b) , J. Sweeney 1 (1b) , R. van der Bilt 3-0-19-2

Only one batter to come after this...

Is getting an AR/Strong batsman the first thing I should work on? Life without Stone is tougher than I thought.

[PowerBug]

I'm thinking towards having my No. 8 as an AR. That's what i've done today, got the extra batsman today, which could come in handy.

End of over 20 (2 runs) - PowerBugCC(72-1). 116 runs required from 30 overs. RR 3.60 RRR 3.87
D. Budden 32 (46b) , G. Tonge 31 (60b) , G. Bee 5-0-18-0

Still looking strong. Sitting just below the RRR at the moment.

[Nails]

End of over 28 (6 runs) - The Nailers(138-4) RR 4.93
J. Bubb 0 (0b) , M. Christie 51 (75b) , R. van der Bilt 4-0-25-3

Least one of us is in a good position PB... Perhaps offing Stone wasn't the best idea I ever had...

Hopefully my exp/exp 19yo is worth it... hopefully he pops in fielding ASAP.

[PowerBug]

My posi isn't that great. But if these two can stay until 30 i'll feel happier. :)

[CrowsFan]

Hopefully my exp/exp 19yo is worth it... hopefully he pops in fielding ASAP.

What 19 y.o? You don't have a 19 y.o exp/exp in your squad

20yo* typo  :D

32.4   4   Cart to Sreerupa : [Boundary Hitter] A wonderful back foot punch through the covers, supreme timing on that and the ball races to the boundary.

first ball of his innings :)

[CrowsFan]

Ah right.

Going pretty well in my giants cup game btw :)

End of over 33 (7 runs) - The Matchbox Matadors(256-2) RR 7.76
K. Temiz 127 (95b) , R. Donfeld 1 (1b) , T. Dicsan 2-0-16-1

Just lost Stroetinga for 94...
