Love Himannv's top 6, but agree with him that the bowling took a hit so will go for Teuton. Although, with the dew a game where the toss could prove pivotal. Himannv's top 6 chasing against Teuton's 3 spinners potentially struggling with the dew - although Teuton helped by 2 of 3 spinners being wrist spinners. Very good batting depth for Teuton too and an undeniably ATG opening pair.

 

[Howe_zat]

This is the closest matchup, but Buttler and Jayasuriya opening together scores too high on the fun scale to ignore

Also Mushfiqur Rahim would definitely find a way to bugger it up in the last over if he's batting down the order

 

[kingkallis]

Himannv's batting is solid but it lacks another good spinner on Dubai's turf. Teuton covered it well with Warne, Saqi with Steyn and Kapil gives him slightest of the edge over Himannv.

The result of this match is critical. @Red_Ink_Squid job is on the line.

The result of this match is critical. @Red_Ink_Squid job is on the line.

The match is quite close. And I have set the days as 5 days which in hindsight looks a bit long. Let us see if couple of people can vote in the next couple of days and save RIS's job

job vs jacket....

 

[Himannv]

We interrupt this exciting and hotly debated contest to inform you that the coach, Red Ink Squid, has now had his contract terminated. While this decision was untimely, it was indeed necessary as his spells did... well... frankly nothing of note.

Spoiler: Letter of termination sent to Red Ink Squid

Dear [employee_name] Squid,

I’m sorry to inform you that as of 15th November 2021, you’ll no longer be employed with Himannv Hotheads. As discussed, we think this is the best decision, because you have sucked tremendously at your job and your spells don't work!

You won’t be eligible for any compensation or benefits associated with your position because the company is now closing down and out of business due to the absolute failure of this glorious venture. Please return all company property, including your wand and crystal ball that was purchased on your behalf before 17th November 2021 to the Human Resources office.

If you have questions or clarifications, I’m at your disposal for up to five minutes after your last day of employment.

We wish you best of luck, a truckload of guilt, and a smidgen of regret for your abject failure.

Himannv
CEO, Chairman, and Team Owner

[Red_Ink_Squid]

I'd like it to be a matter of public record that I didn't receive a single IOU note for my work.

 

[Himannv]

It's all going down in flames in the Hothead franchise office at the moment and the CEO has run off with all the IOU notes.
