Never fear, young Gaurav, I have a foolproof two step plan.

Step 1.
Blackmail Liam into trading us Cloete for someone crap (like Håkon :p )

Step 2.
Insert Chuck Norris as our new bowling coach. He'll sure as hell be twice as effective as Troy Cooley, and if he isn't, he'll roundhouse kick you back to Hong Kong for not being better than Cooley's Welshman.

Anyone wishing to share their highlights of Club Cricket so far?
Mine would be my 57*, more than doubling my previous highscore of 28*.
My first century of course

Since it seems the world and his wife want to join us (must be the lure of a new skipper with fresh ideas) - I assume some will have to leave!

When it seems its offical, im playing for the Reds next season. Really looking forward to the challenge of playing with a more experienced batting line up. Hopefully i can contribute to helping turn us from chockers to becoming the real deal.

Just out of intersted i was wondering if you had any plans. Im not sure if this is the place to ask as at the Colts we had to email the captain about these questions, but i will give it a go. With Hakon, Dobson and Feeney all opening option in the longer form and Markus, Stedman and Sean openers in the short form will i be batting in the middle order option this season. The only reason i ask cus if this is the case then i might ask Liam drop me down the order in club cricket to prepare.

Well you've spent the last couple of Club Cricket OD matches in the middle order out of necessity. The necessity being that you're in terrible OD form. I'm fairly certain Dave would want you at the top of the order in FC at least though.

I'm fairly certain the management committee will discuss how best to fit new players into our team and then make a decision.

And Stedman can open in the FC arena as well. Funny how we dont really have a "regular" opener who opens in both forms of the games. Guess it just goes to show how versatile the Reds batting lineup is.
