Battrick Cup Part Three

[Agent TBY]

Yeah, but I figured it'd be better to play at my ground since it's bigger. And he was okay with it.

Whenuapai CC v Boulevard Bombers
AA for President! v Got Spin
Scaly Piscine CC v Kipper XI
College Dropouts v Victoria Panthers
Jamees 999ers v Citizens Erased - challenge sent by Citizens Erased

Magical Ponies v Dynamo Morpork
Asterix XI v Viveash
Crusaders v bobisback - forfeit
Lancashire v Central Districts

Hook has taken 5 for already to lead the charge for an unlikely victory against College Dropouts.

College Dropouts 75-5, 15 overs
Hook 8-2-24-5

What happens with my match Rob, never accepted my challenge and matches in Australia have already started?

 

[Robertinho]

What match? I was knocked out last week, I'm out of the Cup...

I saw I could still accept your challenge and it's been pencilled in for next week.

 

[roseboy64]

Decided to play my best team since I'm playing a crappy team next week and most of my players are at sublime fitness. So I'll be able to give the tired guys a rest then.

 

[mikeW]

College Dropouts ended up making 218 after Hook's early onslaught which sets up an interesting runchase which i wont be able to watch uinfortunatelly.

 

[nooga99]

Dalmeny will lose shortly

 

[nooga99]

And Dalmeny are out of the cup with a 7 run lose to Vindscreen Vipers.

Ye good match mike. Was surprised to see my top order crumble like that, Hook definately had a good day with the ball.

Easily my best player is a Strong/Exceptional bowler.

Bah, Rob accepted it too late so it's now being scheduled for next week rather than today, which throws out the whole draw as you won't be able to play your next round match next week. Might as well set back all of the plate fixtures by a week now.

 

[andyc]

G0sh guys, way to ruin it for everyone.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Thanks for the plug in the roundup Adam

Definately should lose today, you never know though.

Nah its alright you can give a wildcard to one of the loser of the main draw from this round. There is no real need to set it back a whole week.

 

[Adamc]

It doesn't matter really, the plate was scheduled to finish a week before the main cup so if I set it back a week it just means that they finish at the same time, which is probably better. Also means the other matches which weren't scheduled have a chance of being played. Edit: except for Jamee's.

 

[andyc]

Hmmm, decent start here for my batsmen against Hakon...

0.2 W Tuck to Farmer
Farmer left a gap between bat and pad you could have sailed the QE2 through! Tuck is mobbed by the slip cordon as the umpire replaces off stump.
0.1 . Tuck to Farmer
Ouch!! That's hit Farmer in a very painful place. Regaining his composure, Farmer asks the umpire how many balls are left.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Going to lose to Dav3st4r.

 

[alternative]

My team going well against Nayak's
at the End of Over 30: 151-1, runrate=5.03, reqrunrate=7.60 (302-5)
