play for Tuggeranong as well.

We're in the middle of playing Marist at the moment. I'm embarassed to reveal our 1st innings score last weekend.

10/61.

Yeah that's right lol
I can beat that. When playing U/16's, my team was bowled out for 20 on a pitch which we should not have played a game of cricket on (it was so wet it had a thin film of water on it for crying out loud!). Just to ram home that point a little more, we then bowled them out for 32, with Top_Cat taking 8 of those. :D

Just to highlight how bad this pitch was, I faced two balls when I batted; the first one was pitched so wide it was almost in line with the return crease so obviously I couldn't get anywhere near it and decided to let it go. I was stunned to see it cut back and hit me in the chest. Next ball was a half-volley which pitched and lept up to about waist height and I hit it to gully.

Incidentally, I'm 24. :)

At u/15 level, my team was bowled out for 60 once chasng 125, it is pretty good considering we were 9/25 at one point, until the number 10 and 11 put 35 runs together for the last wicket.

The next week they were opening the batting.

We were bowled for 44 once, but I was 12th man for each of those games.

We were bowled out for 64 chasing 236 off 34 overs, with yours truely out for 0. In that season I was inspired by AA, I made 5 ducks in a row.

meh, a tea i was in got bowled out for 19 a few years back, i was captain that game too, though as we improved dramatically after that (they got 9/165 dec, me 3/12) and in our 2nd dig we were 4/143 (me 40 odd not out).


bowling wise we bowled a team out for 6 once, that was pretty funny, we passed them in 3 balls:lol: :lol: :lol:

By the lack of a "teen" at the end of your age (example: "Sixteen"), I'm afraid not. Your a man now Tim :lol:

Best I can do is when we bowled-out Torquay for 26 in 2001 on a pitch on which nothing bounced more than 10 inches or so. 9 bowleds; yours truly took 6 of them and the one catch, a return.
In 4 overs.
Inzamam-Ul-Haq scored 18* of them (or at least we called him that because he was the right shape, right speed between the wickets, and right ability in coping with his home pitches that others understandibly struggled on).
I went in at 3 after our best batsmen played back (the bowler was about 60-odd mph and it pitched halfway down, so you can't blame him) and scored 13*. Don't ask me how.

By the way, Bevan is uncannily like the Bangladeshis, yes - amazing how good he is against everything but the short-ball, though.
Amazed to find-out how old some people are on here.

There is nothing much wrong with bevens play against the short ball these days as most Australians would know but he still does not have any hope of making the test team.

i'm 18, but i played U16's for WA 2 years ago...An all-rounder, (atm,i think that reflects my physyique more than nething else)..i dislocated my shoulder pretty badly play Football wif a couple of mates, it's only starting to getting better now... I should be able to bowl again in 6 months. I can bat kinda ok,except i can't go for the big hits and stuff,coz shoulder still hurts :(

International 12th Man
The u/16 team bowled out a tasmanian u/16 team for 12 once... Our captain said to us " 13 to win, see if we can do it with 3 sixes"

we ended up winning the game 6/18 with me hitting one six that ended up landing in a garbage biN!!! i got bowled the next ball though :(
