Exceptional experience at 32 isn't great either.

20.5 W Saitoti to Eriyagolla : [catch] De Blaauw might have taken some grief for eating all the pies, but a nice soft stomach was needed to help cushion the shot giving enough time for him to claim the catch.
P. Eriyagolla c L. De Blaauw b. D. Saitoti 40 (47b 3x4 1x6) SR:85.11

End of over 21 (5 runs) - AchmidsSoul(87-3). 178 runs required from 29 overs. RR 4.14 RRR 6.14
W. Vaughton 0 (1b) , A. Gilbert 6 (11b) , D. Saitoti 6-1-19-1

now Taufel comes back into the attack too :D

DazBurg · February 27, 2011, 03:58:43 PM

24.3 . Saitoti to Vaughton : [dropped] Vaughton drives upishly into the covers. Manou dives forward, but spills the ball when his elbows hit the deck. A nice change of pace from Saitoti, but Vaughton survives.

crap come on u gotta hole those >:(

very next ball

24.4 3 Saitoti to Vaughton : [misfield] Makes room and drives behind square off of a thick outside edge. Walsh rushes around on the boundary but fumbles and gifts a third.

>:( >:(

End of over 25 (5 runs) - AchmidsSoul(105-3). 160 runs required from 25 overs. RR 4.20 RRR 6.40

End of over 28 (8 runs) - AchmidsSoul(130-3). 135 runs required from 22 overs. RR 4.64 RRR 6.14
W. Vaughton 21 (24b) , A. Gilbert 22 (31b) , E. Taufel 9-0-44-0

the last three overs they have got over the RRR

DazBurg · February 27, 2011, 04:19:31 PM

29.5 W Taufel to Gilbert : Out! Gilbert has nicked a regulation outswinger from Taufel to Anderson at first slip.
A. Gilbert c E. Anderson b. E. Taufel 25 (39b 2x4 0x6) SR:64.10

Taufel!!!!

2nd last ball of his spell finally got a wicket but just when i needed it

CrowsFan · February 27, 2011, 04:21:48 PM

You look pretty set in your match Daz. You should win from there ;)

BratPack · February 27, 2011, 04:22:35 PM

Odhiambo has called heads correctly and has decided to bat. Front Foot Fury will start their innings shortly.

Okay I'm not happy

Boomz · February 27, 2011, 04:23:25 PM

Naved has called heads and lost the toss. Daley ponders for a moment before deciding to bowl first. Roo Boys! will start their innings shortly.

Good I didn't want to bat...

DazBurg · February 27, 2011, 04:25:01 PM

could still be close CF coming into the last 15 his batters could hit out

31.5 W Ilango to Hatton : Short and wide outside the off stump, Hatton shuffles across and flashes hard at it. The ball clips the edge and goes straight to Vidur behind the stumps.
M. Hatton c J. Vidur b. S. Ilango 4 (8b 0x4 0x6) SR:50.00

though that makes me feel better

End of over 32 (1 run) - AchmidsSoul(145-5). 120 runs required from 18 overs. RR 4.53 RRR 6.67
W. Vaughton 27 (32b) , A. Thollar 1 (1b) , S. Ilango 6-0-18-1

wonderful first over back for llango would of been a maiden too but Crook had a misfield >:(

CrowsFan · February 27, 2011, 04:26:59 PM

Thundyil has called tails and lost the toss. Priyadarshini ponders for a moment before deciding to bowl first. Pompei Cricket club will start their innings shortly.

Is it better to bad or bowl on a green first??

depends on your tactics and your strengths

End of over 34 (10 runs) - AchmidsSoul(161-5). 104 runs required from 16 overs. RR 4.74 RRR 6.50
W. Vaughton 39 (42b) , A. Thollar 3 (3b) , S. Ilango 7-0-26-1

hmmm not good for me in that over

EDIT:

34.3 . Anderson to Thollar : Huge appeal from Anderson who is going quite red in the face with the effort. "Not out" says the umpire, the ball must have pitched outside leg as it would surely have hit the stumps

damn

CrowsFan · February 27, 2011, 04:36:09 PM

Ah ok. I decided to bowl first hoping to keep them to a low target for me to chase. I batted first in the first 2 matches and managed to hold on against fletch, but BB carved up the chase. So thought I would see how I would go chasing a target.

End of over 2 (6 runs) - Pompei Cricket club(9-0) RR 4.50
K. Mittal 5 (10b) , I. Udit 4 (2b) , W. Orange 1-0-6-0

Pretty average start for me...
