[nibbs]

nibbs, do you have any qualms with my player? I'm dying to know is all..

he is fine, just.

Do you mean concentration or consistency? Regardless, he's on a fielding net.

good to hear, buddy

It's been almost 40 minutes since the friendlies begun, why haven't I/we picked up commentary on my/our games?

 

[Nate]

New ME fail I assume.

 

[NZTailender]

New ME fail I assume.

Surely they'd have upgraded to Windows 7 by now?

 

[Jakester1288]

New ME fail I assume.

Just read the bugs board - there's a huge amount of problems with it.

Just saw a tweet from BT, and we're back.

End of Over 19: 94-2, runrate=4.95, reqrunrate=4.32 (227-4)
Joyce 5-0-22-1
Naseem* 7 (7 balls)
Caulfield 8 (13 balls)
Last Wicket: Donald c & b. Joyce 38 (FOW: 82/2)

Batted what seems like a tad slow. Match very much in the balance atm.

 

[Jakester1288]

If I can knock over Caulfield before he makes 30 I'd have a far greater chance of winning this match.

Waiting keenly for Fillery to come on, he's my best chance of getting wickets.

EDIT: By the time Fillery comes on it'll probably be too late. Gotta make a not of getting him bowling earlier in the innings, through the middle overs when the oppositions dangerous batsmen are in.

If you knock one of Naseem or Caulfield over the game is yours. The remaining players are mostly backups.

Heck, it's too late for that even.

You only need 4 and a half an over, and you'll speed up in the last 10 due to the match engine anyway.

End of Over 39: 177-2, runrate=4.54, reqrunrate=4.64 (227-4)
Joyce 10-0-54-1
Naseem* 37 (71 balls)
Caulfield 59 (69 balls)
Last Wicket: Donald c & b. Joyce 38 (FOW: 82/2)

Suppose a bit of Fillery magic could get me a win.

40.2 W Lancashire to Naseem
The keeper dives to right in front of second slip gleefully accepting the catch. He is quickly surrounded by his team mates congratulating him on his one handed catch.

Eh Naseem gone. He's going slow and actually helping my side win, Caulfield is the big wicket we need now.

 

[Jakester1288]

Is there any way to tell if your keeper dropped any catches without reading through the commentary? Does it show something or just a dot ball for drops?

 

[Jakester1288]

You're looking likely to win, but regardless of the result, want another friendly for next sunday unless my mate want's one?

Keen to beat you haha.

 

[Jakester1288]

And that's the end of the match. Canterbury Chargers won by 7 wickets.
Killers CC 227-4
Canterbury Chargers 229-3


End of Over 48: 229-3, runrate=4.77
Fillery 8-0-43-0
Reid* 16 (25 balls)
Caulfield 92 (92 balls)

Caulfield did it for you. I batted too slow from the start, if I had another 20-30 I would have won.

Challenged to another game, at my home ground.

End of Over 46: 222-10, runrate=4.83
Seaman 8-0-35-2
August* 15 (16 balls)


Bangladesh cup final. Hard and Fast. I think my Phenomenal top order should destroy his strong-comp bowling attack. Weirder things have happened though.

Wag.
