CBF writing a report. But I thought I might post my teams all time records, cus I kept track.

Top 10 All Time Batsmen:

Clayton	        4717
Ellis	        4521
Quintin	        3701
Lucas	        3628
Ferrier	        2501
Nurse	        2026
Obeysekera	1293
Muralitharan	1178
Girubaharan	986
Allison	        765

Lucas is climbing pretty fast, should over take Quintin soon even though his likely to start opening with him. Obeyesekera has just taken gone ahead of Muralitharan. Probably should bat him up to order soon, so he can have a bat.

Top 10 All Time Bowlers:

Priyantha	162
Jeithoon	132
Dowdall	        117
Muralitharan	100
Sishayi	        97
Rangana	        74
Kinsella	71
Baptiste	68
Willetts	55
Sisk	        51
Pushpakumara	45

Priyantha doesn't play much and only seems to take wickets against bots during early cup matches and crap team like Manju's. When Jeithoon start playing more he should take over soon. Murali just got his ton. Sishayi has hit the nervous ninties with ball. He had 90 wickets to start the season and after 8 games only has 7 wickets. Willetts is climbing pretty fast. Depending on how many games he get for the rest of the season he might jump ahead of Baptiste, Kinsella and Rangana.

Why has my youth academy condition gone down? It's been on superb for a few weeks now, and I just looked then and it's only strong. I'm still investing the full amount. Does it always go down like this?

 

[PY]

Yeah it falls semi-regularly even if you are investing the full amount. That's why the repair option is there..

 

[Adamc]

Had a pretty decent win yesterday, Ellis with his first decent score and Watkins' batting form returning at last.

Asterix XI 308/4
Watkins 127 (92), Ellis 111* (133)

The Flintstones 116/10 (32.5)
Whitehorne 5-8 (5), Downer 2-36 (10)

	          [B]Asterix XI 	The Flintstones[/B]
Top Order: 	exceptional 	quality
Middle Order: 	remarkable 	competent
Lower Order: 	woeful  	useless
Seam Bowling: 	miraculous 	superb
Spin Bowling: 	wonderful 	superb
Fielding: 	mediocre 	feeble

Sell-out crowd of 53k too. Huge game against Borderliners next week, they're one win ahead of me but with lower NRR, winner will be the favourite for the title basically.

 

[Johnners]

Gah, Finance updates anyone?

Weird, finances have updated, just can't get my YP

Yeah, goes down after time. Just need to repair it.

Last Wicket: Schofield c. Naysmith b. Burns 27 (FOW: 51/1)

skipper on fire for me, made 204 in fridays one day game the highest score for the club and today he is 108* and going well so 3 hundred runs in 2 innings so far.. go you good thing!

 

[Bobisback]

39.5 W Sicelo to Browne
When you hit them that hard, they really can go anywhere, and that one went straight to Wikus

Gets the wicket he deserved.

End of Over 40: 250-2, runrate=6.25
Sicelo 10-0-58-1
Staunton* 26 (23 balls)
Le saux 0 (1 balls)
Last Wicket: Browne c. Wikus b. Sicelo 116 (FOW: 250/2)

Looking at chasing 320ish

 

[Bobisback]

Bowled Newcastle Knights outs on a Hard and Fast deck


End of Over 47: 306-2, runrate=6.51
Poke 9-0-64-0
Le saux* 35 (24 balls)
Staunton 47 (42 balls)
Last Wicket: Browne c. Wikus b. Sicelo 116 (FOW: 250/2)

47.6 W Wikus to Baines
And Baines's GONE, Beaten by the spin!
47.5 W Wikus to Mackin
Huge shout for LBW...and it's given! Replays are suggesting that was missing leg stump but the decision has gone Wikus's way!
47.4 W Wikus to Le saux
What a ball by Wikus! Clips the bat of Le saux and easily caught by Beaumont.

HATTRICK

48.3 W Poke to Mahesh
A good length ball just outside the line of off stump. Mahesh is unable to get his bat out of the way in time and the ball takes a healthy edge on its way to Beaumont.

48.6 W Poke to Whitehouse
Whitehouse's bat has got stuck in the turf, and a direct hit from Hiller at point catches him well short of his ground.

49.4 W Wikus to Doughty
Superb catch behind by Beaumont.
49.3 W Wikus to Holly
Goes for the slog-sweep, but mistimes it and has holed out to deep mid wicket.

49.6 W Wikus to Norris
Wikus produces some extra flight in that delivery and it collects the top edge of Norris's bat. The fielders swoop underneath the ball like lonely maidens at a wedding... and Alshaun has won the bouquet!




The players are off the field for the break between innings.

End of Over 50: 318-10, runrate=6.36
Wikus 10-1-63-6
Staunton* 51 (47 balls)

100 and i will be happy.

[Olwe]

well done bugssy, good win for you, but i am happy with Frazer's performance with 107, and i am still happy hitting 290 even though i consederd 339, (as i am in Div VI and you are in div V) all my team need is a bit of time to practise and soon we will be able to challange, i hope! two hard games coming up follwoed by two games agiants bots ( so i can rest my playeres who are unfit!)

 

[PY]

Lost heavily, they scored 198, I got 39.

Ratings on PAN, not too bad. Looking to improve the batting side of things pretty urgently.
