**DIV 1**

Cricket Web 'A' 304 & 341/6d
England 'A' 195 & 177

Cricket Web 'A' won by 273 runs

Man of the match: Craig

Coach's Comments:
Brilliant batting from the top and middle order. Craig was amazing on his CW 'A' debut. He looks a true talent for the future. All the bowlers looked good, but Mr Wright was the undoubted star. Great captaincy and a brilliant win!

India A 207 & 200
Veterans XI 256 & 152/3

Veterans XI won by 7 wickets

Man of the match: Saeed Anwar

Cricket Web 'B' 292 & 278
New Zealand 'A' 362 & 100/1

Cricket Web 'B' draw with New Zealand 'A'

Man of the match: PG Fulton

Coach's Comments:
The bowling was very disappointing. The debut leggies were fair on debut, but eventually the batsman took hold and started to play shots... especially v Pratyush. Good innings from captain Langeveldt and some entertainment from Ian Markus and Deeps. Well-bowled by Patrick Fisher. There are improvements to be made...

Not a bad start, considering my debut.

One thing, though, my name is Halsey not Hasley!!:P

 

[bugssy]

great start by the cwa boys

welcome the new blokes

i was in a couple with the new bloke craig , and my old batting partner marc


glad to be back and scoring runs..


lets keep it going guys

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

One thing, though, my name is Halsey not Hasley!!:P

You took a while to notice that! All fixed.

 

[marc71178]

Well played team - I'm pleased to have continued my extremely consistent form into the new season - just wish I could convert my starts.

Brilliant allround performance from Bugssy stole the show. Sharp bowling from Chris Hinton and Mr Wright as well as good showings by Imran Khan Jr. and Gibbs N Smith. Impressive win no. 2.

Wonderful allround stuff from Nichani! The spinners restricted Klusener as he struggled to time the ball in playing the only significant innings for SA. A very impressive effort from Patrick Fisher as well and some lusty innings from Deeps and Buts to rush the close.

Cricket Web 'A' won by 9 wickets

Man of the match: Mr Ponting

Wow! What a start! Brilliant bowling by Mr Wright and Mr Ponting in particular. Good innings from Master Blaster and Imran Khan Jr. to stablize the effort after a patient knock by Mr. Smith.

Cricket Web 'B' 213 & 306

Poor batting did the trick for the Bs. Except for the odd innings, it was a rather poor effort allround. Ian Markus has to be the unluckiest player in the Dev League right now...
