[Paid The Umpire]

get run out is relevant, considering it happens to the best of them.

Thankyou, I am the best of them!

 

[Paid The Umpire]

I was run out 3 times in the last season, and just being quick between the wickets doesn't mean squat!

If you are stranded by your partner, no matter how fast you are you wont be getting back in.

LAST 5 SEASONS:
Run Out 4 times
Stranded 3 times

does this mean that I am a poor runner, NO! it means that i like getting stranded by partners.

Apart from Top_Cat & Tamara I don't think anyone else here has played for their State or City.
I have played indoor cricket for Auckland, but that doesn't really count so im afraid the rest of us aren't qualified to say we're any good or not because we haven't played at the top level.

 

[Paid The Umpire]

excuse me TIM!

I once played in the Year 8 A-team against Trinty College!

OK, maybe not as good as England but close!

Rubbish, mate. Playing indoor cricket for Auckland is pretty brilliant if you ask me. I've played indoor quite extensively and I know how tough a game it can be.

Besides, after my last match performance for the Cricket Web XI, maybe it's time to try someone else! 5 overs for 32, YIKES!!

 

[Tim]

sorry I should have re-phrased that.
I play Indoor Cricket for the Auckland U19's, theres a difference between U19's & the actual Auckland team.

There's no point skiting about your ability unless you're good enough to make the top level IMO.

As said before dont stress a lot about it

cant really hog the boards unless u can backit up as dave says , plus there is a first for everything , first for runouts , the sim could be quite accurate as it is based upon the stats u gave, and its true its not right to say if ur fast in the field ur fast between wickets , runouts could be patners fault as pointed out by Paid

anyway good work again Prems and fabolous opening bowling by Lucky and David again good stuff guys

experience wins over pace ? :P

well i have been selected 2 years in a row to play at the state championships for brisbane. opening bat and best spinner.

Speed hardly ever has anything to do with runouts... You should know the speed of yourself and your partner and judge runs on this, communication is the key. Runouts happen when u don't have the communication or with a really good piece of fielding.

You get stranded or make a bad call more than get undone by a great bit of fielding.

 

[lord_of_darkness]

thanks a lot for that tamara well summerised

 

[Langeveldt]

I agree, no point in trying to prove how good you are unless you actually are in the position to back it up..

I train in the winter with some Somerset Under 17 and while I can compete and hold my own, i would probably not be good enough to be picked for any matches.

 

[Kiwi]

What we need is a bit of Honesty. Alot of the time we have to trust what you say because We don't know better!!!

County under 19s...

 

[Rik]

Well, how do we see them? Not very reliable proof for us is it? I meant something you can back up like national selection etc

What about county age group selection?

 

[Rik]

well i have been selected 2 years in a row to play at the state championships for brisbane. opening bat and best spinner.

Yeah and in the sim you still go for 5 1/2 an over...not even AA does that badly
