5D All Star game

The Cricket Web Dev XI fought hard, but were ultimately crushed by 10 wickets by a strong All Star team.

Dev League All Stars
565/6d & 92/0
Cricketweb XI Devs 319 & 334

Dev League All Stars won by 10 wickets

Man of the match: Gavin Ewing

More than anything, it was the bowling which let down the Devs as they looked flat and unpenetrative after been asked to bowl first.

The All Star OD game

After a good partnership between Andre and Eclipse, the lower and middle order fell apart. It still made for an entertaining All Star game.

CRICKETWEB XI DEVS 232 42.4 overs
DEV LEAGUE ALL STARS 233/7 47.5 overs

Dev League All Stars won by 3 wickets

Man of the match: Eclipse

MVP of the All Star Series - Eclipse

 

[Paid The Umpire]

Paid The Umpire the star player in the five day all star match.

Scoring 22 and 63, and getting team best figures 2-52 (20)

Top scoring in second dig
Best bowling figure for the team.

NOT A BAD EFFORT!

Pity about the not being selected for the one day.

 

[Eclipse]

Exellent

Could not be happyer with my OD form right now.
