Stumped!

Rusty should be bowling fairly well on this pitch, but he, er, didn't. Marsden's just gone, and Bennett's come out swinging too. Captain Smit's taken some blows too.

Just a thought (if everything has not been settled yet) but if you have two teams it would be more interesting to keep them in separate leagues but maybe that gives an unfair advantage compared to those with one team?

Thanks for the work JoJo
I had just used a randomiser for both top seeds, 2nd seeds etc.


I think the below would ensure no one has 2 sides in one group whilst ensuring seeding remains if people wanted it to change to this. There may be other alternative groups that do the same - this is the one with the fewest changes necessary to the already drawn groups.

Thoughts others - for the sake of time zones I think Group A should become Group B and vice-versa if these changes are made and hopefully ataraxia can at least catch some of his senior team


Group A

Z***x CC - 32
Jura CC - 89
Ashgrove Astronauts - 114
Honest Hunks - 124
AtaraX Wellington -139
Moooo - 169
Dynamo Morpork - 174
Charminster CC - 199
The Net Theorists - 223


Group B - 11am start game time (12pm UK time)
Free HK - 44
ataraXia - 46
GG CC - 115
The Merry Orangutans - 117
Dynamo Schmaltzberg - 130
The Buy-Ins - 157
Winton CC - 187
Plymouth Pirates - 205
Shri's Croquet Team - 219

I think it was fine as it was tbh
Yeah I'm happy with it as it is, just responding in case there is a near-unanimous favouring of changes to groups. I'll see how things are similar time tomorrow but if not a strong chorus of support for changes will copy original groups again in another post for clarity and tag those who still need to sign up.

Who’s excited for CUP matches?!

GG CC has to tackle Team Potter in R1, they’re rated a bit higher than us, but I think we can handle them. We have the experience to take us over the line.

Mooo CC, on the other hand will lock horns with a BOT team ?

tbh both ataraxia and c nerd already have their two teams split with the original groupings so they are going to favour it remaining that way! Would just have been nice for all of us to have enjoyed that same situation and avoid 'same nation' teams playing each other

Easy win for TNT today against the bot in R1. Nice start to the campaign.

Not expected for the TMOs to do great. Drawn against a decent side and have not had much luck recently in tough important matches. Hoping for the best though!

CUP R1- GG CC V Team Potter

Team Potter won the toss and inserted a star-studded GG CC team for first strike...Bram Human was the first to go after spanking 3 boundaries. He was trapped LBW for 12 (5)
Keith Tindall came in at number 3 to join Ernst Levy. Together, they took the score to 39; Levy would be the next to go, 9 (12)

Jayraj D souza and Tindall added 71 for the 3rd wicket...Robin Oxley came in and just changed the tempo of the innings. He made 100 in 70 balls, and that only set the tone for Peter Sutherland coming in at number 7 and scoring an unbeaten century as well. His was more commanding. He brought up his hundred in 49 balls, but he wasn't finished...until the end of the innings, his highest score in this format, 134* (65 balls, 11x4; 9x6).

414/6 (50.0)

Babar Ijaz struck thrice in his opening spell to leave them 19/3. Hard to come back from that chasing over 400
