Named a pretty silly team. Bowling selection trial in which all my bowlers were selected.

1. Masakadza
2. Shehzad
3. Sinclair
4. Prior
5. S Patel
6. Hall (3, 3)
7. Swan (2, 4)
8. Faulkner (5, 1)
9. Cork (4, 2)
10. Harmison (1, 5)
11. Kaneria (6, 6)

It helped that a lot of my bowlers can bat a bit, but still, I shouldn't win with that. Rested my entire top four (Watson, Hughes, Ramps and Joyce).

Yeah.

Did well than expected with that lineup.

Should have given Mazakadza a bowl too.:p

Furball hasn't named a second team for the match. Should I wait for him or just sim the next one?

Agree with Howe_zat.

Also what about Good at BJs CC vs. Funky Town Monkey Pimps ?

Marcuss and Himannv both haven't named lineups?

Masakadza, Sinclair and Samit Patel can all bowl a bit - all listed as batting allrounders on the CPL site. That, and the fact that I have Watson, means Andrew Hall is extremely unlikely to bat above 8 all season, but I wasn't sure on what bowling lineup I'd run with for Round 1 and no-one did anything in the first trial so I wanted to give them all a run.

Bowling still a bit of a worry for me, although Hall and Faulkner have booked spots for Round 1 now. Prior's form a small concern too.

Maybe you could take the default lineups from his thread at the end ,if he does not show up?

Turbulence and Moops for the wooden spoon?
Nah I intentionally did not blood any decent fast bowlers and basically played my second team and gave aggression settings so I get a chance to see who performs rather than play win-oriented cricket in the trials.

Would've beaten you comfortably if I wanted to, ****. :p

Anyway Inzy scored a ton with no-one scoring above 40 in one innings and Sree took 5-68 in another innings, So I'm quite happy with what happened in the game as it brought some much needed selection info.

Will put my team up in 5 mins. Wanted to wait and see how they got on in the first game before giving my back up players a game.

Sree's been a joke in CPL; he can obviously only bowl well for you with all the faith you show him. ;)
