The home crowd at Tawonga is currently asleep thanks to Slaytor.

Thats it, tonight when I edit team orders, half my batting lineup is going on very defensive just to frustrate this team.

 

[Johnners]

All out for 110 batting first, Moloto scoring 44 of them.

Hope someone starts a bidding war with you for Bates, Mitchell (y)

What orders do you have set for your batsman? Maybe you can save the match to draw by putting them on very defensive.

Beaumont?

Id want more than 1.6 million for Beaumont

Right now i have 1.9m in the bank. I was very close to spending it on a high-prof bat strong conc guy last night, but people told me i was an idiot so i didnt. Then last night i was about to go to bed, and i thought i would check the player ads thread. Saw a 18yr old superb FM, exactly what i wanted. So Evelyn back on the market, already got a bid on him.

****. Forgot to set orders, meaning I'm playing full strength. ****.

 

[EARLOBE]

I'm an idiot. I didn't set a declare total and I'm playing away against a bot. Should finish it early tomorrow morning though.

 

[pasag]

Bowled summerbay out for 37 first innings, then made 7/503 dec with Elmes making 178 (off 146 balls). Should be all over soon although I hope I remembered to change the setting to enforce the follow on.

 

[bugssy]

Kamara 14-0-86-0
Willetts* 205 (168 balls)
Bodkin 165 (178 balls)

i am in trouble here. will try and draw but there is plenty of time left!

 

[NZTailender]

End of the first day, and we still haven't bowled them out. Feeling like a right mug right now.

Meanwhile, Pullers is a machine:
Weerappuli 29-15-33-4

 

[pasag]

Took two wickets before the close of play, should have this wrapped up before lunch tomorrow with an innings + 300 run victory on day 2.

 

[oz_fan]

Not off to a great start. Bolwing first the other side is 390-7 at the close of play. Hopefully I can hase down the runs before the end of tomorrow to give me a remote chance of winning.

 

[Dead Badger]

Set a flat pitch in the hope of spinning out a home FC game to three days. Don't think it's going to work unless I bat for most of them:

End of Over 10 (3 runs). swycc: 8-3, runrate=0.80
Pead 5-2-6-2
Tau* 5 (11 balls)
Andre 3 (25 balls)

New stadium upgrade means I should be raking in a bit more even off two days, though, so that's nice.

 

[Spitfires_Fan]

Decent-ish start against a team with some good players who mostly have fairly low pfl's.

End of Over 18 (7 runs). Birchwood CC: 60-3, runrate=3.33
Westwood 9-1-33-0
Courts* 30 (47 balls)
Metcalf 1 (2 balls)

Both openers were run out, their two best batsmen are in now, not much to come after this. It'd be nice to bowl them out for around 150.

Day One

Brackenhurst - 820/0 off 110 overs
Abbey 436* (357)
Burnip 329* (313)


Planning to declare on 1100, for the thrill of a batsman scoring 500 and the team going over 1000, and maybe getting my number three in form and then bowl them out within the day.

 

[trevor_vayro]

In a similar position to the Badgmeister! Playing at home, I picked my side to be competitive against the oppo's 1st XI, only to find that they've bought in a shed-load of Med and Comp misfits. They're currently 21/5 after 22 overs, which believe it or not, actually represents quite a fight back. I've only set my declaration target to 450, which I have a nasty feeling I'll overhaul today, meaning that a third day would be out of the question, and even a second would be under threat. Oh well, just think of the PFL saved!
