The Original 8shes, Nails vs PB. Series 3 over.

[PowerBug]

I'm hurting Nails here, will be a very tough chase.

[PowerBug]

I'll be fair here though, he has been ripped off by the ME somewhat. 13 great fieldings, 7 misfield, 2 catches, 6 drops and a missed runout?? Unless my fielding is worse that's terrible.

I scored 308/5 in the end, I better not lose.

4-2 up now. :D Humid/Green is on today, Humid/Sticky is the decider on the 6th April. (However we may look at changing that yet)

Match 7, Humid/Green getting underway in about 20 minutes. :)

[PowerBug]

I batted first, and scored a more than handy 232/9 off 50 overs. Was doing well until the 38th over, where I lost the first of my 5 wickets in 5 overs. Everyone in my top 6 made double figures, Butt 81 at number 3, and Aronstam 45* and a new position down at 6 were the best. All of Nails' bowlers took a wicket, Bishwash being the best with 2/38 off his 10. Nails missed three fielding checks only for his innings, so he can't blame the fielding this time should he lose.

In reply, it's all Omari Lalla, he's passed his fifty, but three wickets have fallen at the other end, and after 22 overs, I'd say advantage me.

End of over 22 (3 runs) - The Nailers(81-3). 152 runs required from 28 overs. RR 3.68 RRR 5.43
H. Roach 4-0-17-0, O. Lalla 57 (74b), A. Gogler 5 (9b)


If I can hold off here then I'll have won the series with a game to spare, which I'll be pretty impressed with. :D


Edit: Kuhlengisa removes Lalla next over, looking good to take this home now. :D Nails is ruing not owning a fm I bet.

Re-Edit: Roach gets Gogler and Seymore in one over!! 81/6!! This could be over quickly.

And that'll do it. 27k, 11k, 13k, 12k, and now 16k upsets to take an unbeatable 5-2 lead in the series. Let the excuses roll in. :D

Final match just started, I've been put in to bat first.

[Nails]

Solid game so far, feel like I should have commented more on this series but a depressing series.

[PowerBug]

This partnership has pretty much summed up Nails' series:

End of over 37 (2 runs) - PowerBugCC(132-8) RR 3.57
D. Lynch 9-0-31-3, T. Mupariwa 1 (1b), B. Austin 1 (3b)

Has now become:
End of over 47 (11 runs) - PowerBugCC(182-9) RR 3.87
A. Bishwash 9-0-36-1, B. Austin 18 (29b), A. Zahra 0 (0b)

Mupariwa just got out for 27. That was a 51 run 9th wicket partnership...

[Nails]

That Manhattan worrying for PB. Needs to stop these boys soon as they're belting out runs based on sticky standards.

PowerBugCC won the series 5-3.

We'll be back again next season, do not worry. :D Was an amazing series, especially as I was outrated in every single match, to come away with 5 victories was superb. I suspect Nails will have a fm next season, that'll help him alot. We'll be talking to each other about how next season will run, there might be a few changes. :)
