Why are you doing that PB? Now you will lose...

Maybe, but my opponent only rated 88k last time i checked. i should rate more than that. :)

If i lose, big whoop, i only have one challenger for the top spot. And he rates 120k.

He rated 133k in his T20 on Tuesday and is playing the same side ;)

and 20K upsets happen a bit....

Resting half your squad first round of season is stupid IMO.

I can see PB suffering up upset rd8 and losing today therefore not promoting and we'll all laugh at him :D

Well that's why you check their ratings not just assume they rate 88k ::)

End of over 25 (3 runs) - The Nailers(97-4). 98 runs required from 25 overs. RR 3.88 RRR 3.92
A. Yogish 28 (55b) , R. Voros 3 (7b) , A. Murti 3-0-7-1

Opponent has the upper hand :(

PB, I find that at EOS teams either upgrade or downgrade... you generally check that, instead of basing guesses off the previous season's ratings ;)

I didn't assume, i clearly stated LAST TIME i checked he rated 88k ;) And the fact that the manager has no idea whether he wants to keep playing or not is weird too. :-\  ;)


And yeah Nails, if i don't promote i'll et you all laugh at me. Forever and ever and ever...

Yes I know you said last time you checked, but since that wasn't his most recent game that you checked you are obviously assuming that nothing has changed.
His team was destroyed by fatigue then since it was the final game of the season and he never changes his team. The team that rated 88k is exactly the same as this one.

ok, yeah i should've checked again. But let's see what i get, then try and defend it. Maybe one more player form my original squad would've been good.

33.2   .   Donaldson to Voros : [dropped] Easy chance, but Morshed spilt it. Voros is riding his luck, much like Scotland did in the season seven U19 World Cup.

2 deliveries ago, he's put a 2 and a 4 on the board since. Bit of luck, these two stay in and we are a chance.

End of over 34 (7 runs) - The Nailers(133-4). 62 runs required from 16 overs. RR 3.91 RRR 3.88
R. Voros 23 (35b) , A. Yogish 41 (83b) , C. Donaldson 7-1-33-0

^ knew posting about it would curse me... fark

34.1   W   Yalamanchili to Yogish : Yogish plays all around a straight delivery from Yalamanchili and the stumps are scattered.
A. Yogish b. K. Yalamanchili 41 (84b 2x4 1x6) SR:48.81

Should have knocked on wood.

Surely this idiot can score some runs every now and then? He was batting when his talent was relevant and got 2 off 7... Failed against Q last night too.... I know he's only rel/rel, but surely he can score runs once every blue moon... he can't even do that!

End of over 25 (2 runs) - PowerBugCC(82-4) RR 3.28
B. Harku 40 (70b) , W. Campbell 24 (37b) , G. Sargeant 3-0-16-0

Harku (Exp/Outs 22yo) , Campbell (Avg/Reli 21yo bowler). Ever since i accidently batted Campbell in the top 6 and it worked somehow i have put him up the order for the lols.
