Match Report
A largely boring day.
Fielding and Bowling
It was very hot. I was a boundary rider for most of the game, so I had trouble as I have a poor throwing arm. Irritating.
Well, I barely got to touch the ball after the first 2 hours. I didn't get to bowl until they were about to declare. I bowled better than most of the other guys in my team that bowled - again, the batsman missed the ball BUT THE FREAKIN' BaLL BOUNCED OVER THE STUMPS. And yes, I only got 1 over. Doesn't the coach realise that I'm getting opportunities?
batting
I came in on the last over the day. Blocked 3 balls, let 2 go, and got in a bit of trouble-the ball spun sharply from leg to off, and I missed it - thankfully is missed off. I have to work on getting forward properly.

Again we faced a team older than us. This is really starting to get annoying. Why can't we play other form 3 teams?
It was a 2 day game, so next saturday I have to go back into the battlefield, and plonk the bat down on everything - they got 260, and we sure as hell ain't going to reach that. And, I'm going to try my best to make sure they don't get a first innings win.
We dropped a few catches. One of them was an absolute dolly, straight to matt(player in our team), and he dropped it. He also floored a slightly harder one, and another guy dropped a diving catch.
They got 1/260odd. A guy got a century. Not fair...
