Mystery Draft (ODI XI and Test XI, 79-09)

Athlai

Not Terrible
Trescothick finally comes good and does it big time! Massive choke in that first match but the boys came back strong.

3-0 would've been a lot sweeter.

Somerset wins the series 2-1
Yo - dis is da bullchit man. Whoo dis guy Steyn? :-O

Bloody good series though. Bond just about matched Steyn's heroics, and although my middle order were very good, just never seemed to be able to get a good enough score vs. Steyn and Donald.

Still, better than the series vs. Precam where friggin Mortaza wrecked me consistently.

Precambrian's 2-1 win over Somerset and Chaminda's 3-0 victory against Matt means that Chaminda is now four points clear at the top of the table. Matt slides down to fifth and Athlai and Nufan are now both within touching distance of top spot.

Back on top where we belong.

I'll be honest I picked my side with stats ever much in mind. There not great stats, but pretty decent across the board. Playing Oram as 4th bowler was a masterstoke for VC4, they love lower order batting.

SHIZEN!!! Ker-rist. What the hell happened?

Well, bloody Gambhir happened - bugger tonned up, with big tons, in the first innings of every match unless I'm mistaken. Then Murali and De Villiers systematically destroyed my batting line up innings by innings. The batsmen were obviously in need of a break and a session on the psych's couch by the end of that series.

Cricket's darkest day if truth be told.

Now leave me alone, I'd like to cry in private.
