    All coming up roses here. Reached 300 exactly, thanks to 104 from Staveley, 95 Jeffery, and a pelvis-cracking 76* from Cash, off just 48 balls. Given the deficit in NRR between Whos Your Daddy and ourselves, I'd really like to have bowled first, but if I can roll them for something in the...

    Yep, things looking pretty good for me ATM, 180 ish/2 after 32. But even better than that, WHo's Your Daddy are in trouble against 3rd Veets, who are 189 without loss after 34. Well done Tharmi, the side you beat kocked me out of the Twenty20, Swines!

    In all sorts of trouble on TIE against Victoria Drivers, in a match I should have won with my eyes shut. Was 2/2 with Exc/Strong Greening and Sup/Wond Noon back in the hutch. Rem/Sup Staveley and Strong/Strong Jeffery have stabilised things a bit, and I'm currently 37/2 after 8.

    SIX BATSMEN TAKE A WALK ON THE WILDE SIDE - BUT HAVE THE GURS RUN OUT OF ROAD? A bitter/sweet day in many ways for Gurs' Chairman Vayro. He'll reflect warmly tonight on Sup/Resp RM John Wilde's first fiverfer for the club, but lament that it was all too little too late to restrict Rehtakul...

    CW BT Cup 6

    Hmm, Anchormen! Not the best draw I could have hoped for, but at least I've missed the colossuses, )or should that be colossi?), giving me a fighting chance of achieving my stated ambition of reaching the quarters. Obviously Rob starts as favourite, but a shock isn't beyond me if...

    HAWKS TURN DOVE AS DADDY'S DORDLE. Whilst this week's IV.11 league table looks very much as it did last, Friday could yet prove to have been a critical day in the title race come the end of the season. With a home match against the hapless and winless Everton_aggro, Wos Your Daddy had a...

    CW BT Cup 6

    A better game against The Pillars than the scores would suggest. We were in quite a bit of trouble for most of our innings, with Greening and Staveley going for less than fifty between them, but I think improved batting depth, (Strong+ to No.7 and a Prof at 8), proved important in the end. But...

    Had a convincing win today, to make up some of the NRR difference on league leaders, Who's Your Daddy. I won the toss against Chloe Crusaders, bowling them out for 124 in 38 overs on a Slow pitch. Strong/Strong LHS Jeffery 4/28 on debut, Sup/Resp RM Wilde 2/19, Sup/Resp LFM Carlton 1/19...

    It's a mark of respect to you! One bowler or not, your spin rating matches my top order and well trumps my middle, so I needed to strengthen to feel at all safe against you.

    I've got my man!...Well not exactly the man I was after, but he'll do for the time being. Not far off the same standard of bowler as Bridges M, and with a batting option as well. A bit pricey at £3.75M, but figured he was worth it with his secondaries and fielding. Plan to train him up to Sup...

    Captain's ability

    My skipper is Neale Patel, Sup/Med, a strong Bat who usually opens or bats five. I had thought that captaincy and experience were as important as each other, i.e. that a Sup/Med would be about the same as a Strong/Comp. Except at the time I thought this I believed wrongly that experience was...

    Not sure I'll thrash you mate, a lot depends on whether I find my new bowler between now and then. I predict: Either: Four Pillars and Poor Fillers 235 A/O (42), Cymru Gurgitaters 238/4 (40) Or: Cymru Gurgitaters 288/6, Four Pillars and Poor Fillers 257A/O (46) Mind you, if I pick an...

    BABY IT AIN'T OVER 'TIL IT'S OVER! IV.11 has once again been thrown wide open by a result that not even Gurs' Captain Neale Patel had foreseen. In a week which saw fans protesting over the sale of Bridges M and Qureshi, (and more importantly Vayro's failure to sign replacements in time for...

    No worries mate, I've got a few contingency plans in case they sell and I don't have anyone to replace them, there's a few old Strongs going cheap who'll do in the short term. If nothing I like comes up and Bent and Edworthy don't sell, then I'll give them a net each for a couple of weeks, sell...

    Mahindinho, don't mean to be pushy or rude or anything, but if you were interested in those bowlers I've got up, would you mind putting one early bid on them? just so I've got potential earnings to bid against. If you're not interested then don't worry about it. Tar, Trev
