That has to be the best opening spell in a long while. Ten runs and two wickets off the first 51 deliveries.

Pleased with my own knock. Luffy was outstanding, Kenny and Kears battled well, Rob was a victim of classic aggression. Can't believe Kennett went wicketless either, the world is a cruel place.

Nayak made a nice application for grade cricket, too. (harsh but fair IMO)

Unofficially, that makes the table

Green 26 (+0.01), Red 22 (+a bit) Black 19 (+0.65-ish), Colts 17 (-0.61), Blue 15 (-0.2-ish).

We've been here before, Reds...in qualifying position in both forms...

Now that's an ironic statement if I ever saw one.

In all fairness, getting 114 from 82 balls is a decent effort.

(but it's really three times, given that they lost by five runs against Blue in the first game from 218-7 needing 227, too...)

Great bowling spell from me. Shame the batsmen couldn't shine.

Close call in the end but got over the line.

Great win fellas. Well batted again from Luffy, whilst Watt & Robbins were great with the ball. My first 4-fer as well although it was also my most expensive spell, but i'll take 4-fer most days.

Hrm, 1-31 from 6. Needed at least another wicket to go with going at 6 an over. Not the best.

Fuller, leading wicket taker taken to the cleaners Well bowled by Smith and Dunn, but we never showed up with the bat for the chase. Sitting in a -very- bad place, now.
