Steyn... is ok, comes back with second new ball and annhilates the lower order. Done it in basically every match now.

 

[Howe_zat]

1st innings lead for Turbs. Should've been more after 267/4.

Openers still yet to be of use, though.

4/4 for Furball.

 

[Furball]

300 and 400, getting there.

Murali unexpectedly baws though.

Yuvraj WAG.

edit: next time pay attention to bowling order plz

 

[Cevno]

Waterboy has been the best performing batsman for GF.

And Turbulence collapsing to Kabir Ali FFS?

My mouse slipped

 

[Furball]

Rogers is getting dropped for getting out to Sreesanth ffs.

 

[Teja.]

Not happy but will take this result against the best side with my best player not playing. Everyone apart from Sree and Chopra had a decent match.

Yuvraj is so damn realistic in this. **** 1st innings always but good 2nd innings knocks.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Yuvraj is Furball's only batsman so far, right?
