I came close to throwing away my cup tie against a bot:

Gangtok CC 236-5 (50)
C Singh Lali 2-47, S Hitesh 2-38
Zebras 238-6 (50)
R Bibi 57, S **** 41, M Ahmed 61, F Lal 25, A de Mel 26*, C Singh Lali 15*

I was 166-5, and then 218-6, but de Mel and Singh Lali (both abysmal bats) got me home. It was about a two-thirds strength side. I've got a player who by the looks of it hasn't logged in for about a year next up.

I won my game in the cup after my middle order played stupidly to get out.

However I now have a theory as to some tweaking of the orders which would make sense as to why collapses happen...

Expectedly easy cup game. Rested a few players, skittled them for 74 and knocked them off 2 down. Another team I should beat next as well.

No, because Andy's team is way better than yours the team Dave was playing was pretty similar to his.

Um, hang on??! You got a 20-run seventh-wicket partnership in the death overs?

I'd written that off as impossible.

Might pop straight away, might take 5-6 weeks on one net (for batting). Concentration is impossible to tell because it makes up practically nothing of the wage.

Not getting one for last week and he's looking into this week as it says in the news thing.

No fitness troubles so went mental against bot oppo.

Boggles 419/0 (50 overs)

Abdul kadir 214* (161)
Chanderpaul 197* (142)

Vijayawada CC 197/10

Liyanage 5/40
Singh 2/24

Ratings were slightly worse. On a green pitch so wasn't expecting greatness from my rubbish seam attack. Really need a decent seamer to partner Sekani in most games.

YP was pathetic & hoping training to be good tomorrow.

Duggan and Hamshaw are gunning for 200s in this mornings game. I've got high hopes that they're going to do great, just great ...

Fallon 7-0-55-0
Hamshaw* 54 (42 balls)

Hamshaw on track, Duggan behind schedule
