Didn't realise I had a match today as I was relying on the news announcement which says we don't have a match on the 15th. Should've checked the date next to the fixture I guess. Means I'm playing a worthless bowler in place of the recently-sold Harewood as I didn't set a lineup. Going OK though, Watkins managed a fifty.

End of Over 8: 62-4, runrate=7.75, reqrunrate=9.25 (172-8)
Whitehorne 1-0-2-0
Jameson* 2 (3 balls)
Baker 38 (24 balls)
Last Wicket: Hendricks c. Ashton b. Watkins 5 (FOW: 47/4)

Due to the Zebras close affiliation with a certain African mammal, the Tanzanian Tourist Board has also bought a stake in the club.

As a result of these investments, Zebras will now be known as Zebras Guatemala, while the ground name has been ammended to Maidan Azteca-Kilimanjaro.

Rebranding process now complete with the change of name to Zebras Guatemala.

Fullins, renew my membership.

Haha.

When you list players on the TM, is there a fee taken out which doesn't go into your income? As in, player sells for £65,000 and you get £63,000 in your income?

dontcloseyoureyes · 15-09-2007, 08:20 PM

Rolled for 174 by Tharmi, to be expected. Surprised I made so many really, with Munroe at 11 and only a handful of other "batsmen" (only player other than Munroe higher than comp was De Beer).

I've got no idea who's set to bowl, so I could be in with a shout or not.

5% fee if they sell, nothing if they don't.

FFS your a tosser, opening the bowling with Hodge and Smart, let me guess Seneviratne, Pryde and Sambrook to bowl next. Should have played Jeithoon if i knew this was going to happen, he was fit enough. Still reckon we can pull this off with three batsmen.

Code:

End of Over 6: 5-3, runrate=0.83, reqrunrate=3.86 (174-10) 
Swart 3-1-2-1 
Blakeman* 0 (4 balls) 
Allison 2 (11 balls)
 
Last Wicket: Gunatilleke b. Hodge 0 (FOW: 5/3)

dontcloseyoureyes · 15-09-2007, 09:00 PM

Nah pretty sure they're not bowling, I didn't even think Hodge was bowling.

Pryde's **** anyway, if he bowls you should smash him.

Code:

 
11.2 . Sambrook to Blakeman 
    Wide of off, cut straight to point. 
11.1 . Sambrook to Blakeman 
    That has turned an absolute mile! Blakeman looks bewildered.

dontcloseyoureyes · 15-09-2007, 09:07 PM

Haha wtf. Oh well. Pryde and Seneviratne were moved in the order so that means they're not bowling. Sambrook will take 1-7 from 10, you'll be right.

Nah lost my best batsmen for a golden to Hodge, game over. Hopefully be can get 100 plus. Would be a decent effort for my batsmen against this bowling attack.

Beat alternative by 7 wickets, but the game's messing up now that it's finished, so for altoz:

Alternative XI 113 (37.3)
Speare 64* (93), Bullivant 16 (50)
Canning 5/23 (10), Potgieter 2/28 (9), Tedstone 2/33 (8.3)

Magical Ponies 3/114 (20.4)
Canning 45* (38), Terry 29* (20), Ziauddin 24 (49)
Mcintosh 1/18 (5), Vincent 1/28 (3.4), Lebohang 1/30 (7)

Couldn't get the ratings or any other scores before it messed up.

Fullins, buy Pollard.
