2.6 W Verhoeven to Coburn
That's a fantastic take by Moloto.
1.6 W Bosnich to Conn
Bosnich bowled him! Conn didn't move an inch as the ball ripped middle stump out of the ground. A distinct lack of concentration from Conn there...
1.5 W Bosnich to Keane
Keane comes forward to a shorter ball just outside off stump, straightens off the seam and finds the probing outside edge, straight through to Moloto.



Genuinely considering quitting the game. Superb rolling through a miraculous top order, happens all the time.

Get a middle order IMO.

Haha, just got a YP named Clark Supersad. I'd be sad too with these skills:

I moved Conn from 5 up to 3 to see how he'd go, so I usually have a middle order.

Even with Conn out of the top order it's still a superb running through an exceptional top order.

Get a less ****ty rebuttal imo.

 

[Adamc]

You have four batsmen. Doesn't matter where you put them, you still have no middle order.

ind33d

superb-comp's (YY). Buy a few of them and I should beat you comfortably.

EDIT: Unless I put them all in the 4 middle-order spots.

the whenuapai cup effort is over

Kiwi Blitz 294/4
Winters 2/69, Towse 1/38

Whenuapai CC 235 (46.1 overs)
Janes 61 (55), Sutton 51 (76), Khulekani 40 (29)

Expected to lose. Bit annoyed with the batting side of things. Duggan only managed to muster 16, while Clegg (11) was outscored by Towse, whose batting primary is only abysmal. Sutton my proficent 17yo batsmen even managed to crack 50.

[Nate]

Really wanting to get back into BT, so am thinking of selling my trainees when they pop next. Need something to give me motivation.

Playing a pretty crucial FC match atm.

Brackenhurst - 333/10 off 93.3 overs
Burnip 179 (260)
Hamlin 75 (88)
Hindle 42 (89)
Welsh 5/82 (28)
Rollins 4/47 (19.3)

dalesdoogys - 57/1 off 16 overs
London 37* (56)
Viduka 14* (25)
Littlejohn 1/30 (6)


Not a terrible start, but would not like to think where we'd be without Zia. Smart needs to step up with the ball.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Going hard so far.


End of Over 16: 91-0, runrate=5.69
Singh 3-0-23-0
Dylan* 46 (50 balls)
Keane 43 (46 balls)

 

[pasag]

Playing Fuller again today. Posted 250 (Elmes made half of it) and thought it would never be enough but things are looking pretty good at the moment, one more quick wicket and I'm home.

End of Over 35: 169-6, runrate=4.83, reqrunrate=5.67 (253-3)
Ryan 6-0-34-1
Bell* 47 (49 balls)
Shamshad 5 (14 balls)
Last Wicket: Pietersen lbw b. Suttonwood 27 (FOW: 148/6)

That said, he probably doesn't check anymore and all he's players are heaps fatigued.
