PB Down in a big upset
when he stops sobbing he can post the details...

Yup, hit it on the head Cyrus. Again this guy has got the upset win over me.

46.4 W Zagema to Vaishnavi : Vaishnavi is gone, turns just a little bit after pitching on middle and leg and he's rooted in the crease. Height wasn't a problem and the umpire sends him on his way.
J. Vaishnavi lbw b. R. Zagema 65 (79b 4x4 0x6) SR:82.28

Awesome effort from him, too bad he couldn't get me over the line.

This is why i'm not happy:

At least we'll have a tight contest next season.

That ends the innings of South Side Panthers. HITS AND MISSES will have a target of 434 to chase.
and no not a bot  ;)

Obviously his much better spin ratings on a crumbler made the difference

Obviously his much better spin ratings on a crumbler made the difference

Unfortunately yes, but the hat-trick in the 44th over didn't help either. Considering my tail can bat.
Oh well, life goes on, i only lose $9'000 in Prizemoney from the loss.

I have a better rivalry next week in Youths. Can't wait unti Wednesday.

Was not expecting it to be so easy in my match tonight! On a hard pitch already taken 8 wickets :)

End of over 38 (1 run) - MECC(132-8) RR 3.47
P. Crawford 17 (36b) , C. Williamson 1 (6b) , B. Mlambo 10-0-28-4

My team has bowled 8 maidens too, which is great :D

[Cyrus]

   That is 200 runs for Haddad (203 runs, 134b, 16x4, 5x6) SR:151.49

   End of over 40 (12 runs) - Clyde Cougars(398-1) RR 9.95
F. Haddad 205 (136b) , V. Samsodien 65 (39b) , L. O'Mullane 10-0-99-0

[CrowsFan]

All out for 154 :)

End of over 43 (3 runs) - MECC(154-10) RR 3.58
C. Williamson 5 (13b) , W. Orange 7-2-14-3

Shouldn't have much trouble chasing that down on a hard pitch, although losing some early wickets could make it tough...

[Shaggy]

End of over 45 (11 runs) - Tickle My Timber(413-4) RR 9.18
M. Baisya 104 (61b) , F. O'Donnell 12 (7b) , A. Bennett 8-0-77-2


Tired... After a hard day bot bashing Hilly.

1.3   W   G. McIntyre to McEvoy : G. McIntyre strikes! And a collective groan from the crowd as McEvoy departs. It was nothing more than a straight ball on a length. McEvoy tried to glide it to third man, but it was far too close and crashed into his pads to trap him in front.
N. McEvoy lbw b. G. McIntyre 1 (4b 0x4 0x6) SR:25.00

Well that's not how I wanted to start my chase  :(

[Cyrus]

   End of over 50 (17 runs) - Clyde Cougars(520-3) RR 10.40
F. Haddad 253 (159b) , R. Harten 27 (13b) , O. Booth 10-0-108-1
      That is 250 runs for Haddad (253 runs, 159b 23x4 5x6) SR:159.12

Thought they would rate more considering they rated 157k last week, but the good news is that they are my HIGHEST RATINGS EVER ;D

Also that win basically confirms I will promote to division 3 next year since the team I play next week rates only 100k :)

Great result for my lads, considering I was slightly outrated. This cements me in third position for SOD, behind Fletch and Billabong.

Congrats Fletch on your huge win and subsequent massive percentage boost, which has now elevated you into first possie, and with a bot next week you should promote easily :)
