At least it's happening in peak English time, something might get done.

Have all these bids going on though. Interesting times.

Lost by 180 in the first class match today, not surprising as I only played 2.5 batsmen. Bowlers weren't bad, but playing against a team who has one guy with a battrick rating of 600,000 we were always going to struggle to get him out. He scored 3/4 of their runs in a total of 250-odd the first innings and about the same in their total of 400 in the second. Think we may have dismissed him in the second innings for 200-odd.

I think he was the difference.

Finally won the toss against a bot:

End of Over 18: 131-1, runrate=7.28
Selley 4-0-27-0
Hutchinson* 43 (41 balls)
Nkosinathi 70 (54 balls)

Last Wicket: Strydom c. Mentz b. Kirby 17 (FOW: 31/1)

Going along nicely. Strydom's in horrible form, he's a better bat than that...got out to a guy rated in the 2000's.

Getting nicely beaten here. BT game isn't going too well either.

End of Over 18: 54-3, runrate=3.00, reqrunrate=1.66 (106-10)
Gleeson 4-1-7-0
Alawatta* 7 (23 balls)
Roach 19 (42 balls)
Last Wicket: Carpenter c. Gleeson b. Knowles 25 (FOW: 36/3)

Dhindsa the only person to make it into double figures (75*). Going to be a long season.

Game Over

Coco's Nuts: 376/3 (Duncan 103*, Greene 102*, Nkosinathi 101; Selley 1/60)
Benchwarmers: 20 (Selley 7*, Weir 6; Andre 6/7, Mabudafhasi 4/13)

Diappointed Nkosinathi got himself out, thought he was going to get 200. Might be able to set some new team bowling records this year :happy:

Nailbiting finish here to my game. Hamilton's strong/superb with the bat, but Nizamuddin is worthless.

End of Over 49: 216-8, runrate=4.41, reqrunrate=4.00 (219-5)
Jarrett 10-0-52-3
Nizamuddin* 1 (4 balls)
Hamilton 27 (29 balls)
Last Wicket: Farmer lbw b. Jarrett 5 (FOW: 215/8)

Edit:
Code:
49.5 	.	Sansome to Nizamuddin
 	 	Outside off, angled in from wide of the crease. Left alone with an exaggerated raise of the bat.
49.4 	.	Sansome to Nizamuddin
 	 	Sansome bangs it in outside off and Nizamuddin shoulders arms extravagantly. On the big screen, a man in a Viking outfit tugs his beard a little further up his face.
49.3 	1	Sansome to Hamilton
 	 	Neatly flicked off his pads to behind square.
49.2 	1	Sansome to Nizamuddin
 	 	Sansome drifts onto the pads. Nizamuddin uses the pace on the ball to guide it down to fine leg for an easy single.
49.1 	.	Sansome to Nizamuddin
 	 	'How was that one?' asks Sansome rather politely as Nizamuddin is rapped on the pads. 'Not out, dear boy!' reciprocates the umpire.
Niz back on strike, need one run for the tie.

Edit again: wide! Still have a chance for the win!

Code:
49.6 	wd	Sansome to Nizamuddin
 	 	That was wider than the Grand Canyon, Sansome needs to work on that.
Lame. Dot ball, it's a tie.
