@cnerd123 what is the option DEV when you can choose t20, ODI or DEV ? and whats your team called again?

 

[StephenZA]

Dev are u21 players only (not turned 22 yet).

@cnerd123 what is the option DEV when you can choose t20, ODI or DEV ? and whats your team called again?

Dev stands for Development. It's 40 over cricket only U21s allowed

ZCC have sent you a challenge for mid August

****, 316's remarkable! Mine usually break at 170 or so. As for the two higher Schmaltzberg innings... didn't Sajjad get ~180 once in a bot bash? Otherwise, I'm clueless.

Nice memory, it was 160. Ironically against the same team I played today.

Kenny Sheldon, ex-England ODI player, hit 186* on debut for us. And then quickly fell off a cliff

 

[Magrat Garlick]

ZCC in a spot of bother again (although not as much as Dynamo's spinners who have been taken apart)

edit: first career 6-for for Ibrahim

 

[cnerd123]

This has been utterly abysmal from our batting in the CWC5 lately.

 

[cnerd123]

@Charlie B 's teams have performed exceptionally as of late. Thumping wins over Morpork and The Astronauts + a 6-fer from Tim Chester keeps ZCC's campaign alive

Branning taking apart LOY may have won AXI this game here

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Mooo- 85 all out
GG CC- 88 all out

Taking the Windies approach I see

 

[cnerd123]

A late surge by TBI seems them all but secure first place in Group A, while JCC and the Astronauts will battle it out for 3rd place this Wednesday! ZCC play TNT for their final game, so will be looking to finish on at least 62 points in order to lock up 2nd place and a spot in the first Eliminator.



AXI currently top CWC5B, also with 63 points, but with much less competition behind them. TMO and FHK will lock horns in another 3rd place battle this Wednesday too, while Moooo will aim to take 4 points off Schmaltzberg to lock up 2nd place.

The final standings through from 5th to 9th in each group have basically be decided now, so it's a good opportunity to remind everyone of the Play-Off Structure:

First Round Eliminators
Cup - 1st Group A vs 2nd Group B / 1st Group B vs 2nd Group A
Plate - 4th Group A vs 5th Group B / 4th Group B vs 5th Group A
Spoon - 7th Group A vs 8th Group B / 7th Group B vs 8th Group A
Winners to Semi-Finals

Second Round Eliminators
Cup - 1st Eliminator Loser vs 3rd Group B / 2nd Eliminator Loser vs 3rd Group A
Plate - 1st Eliminator Loser vs 6th Group B / 2nd Eliminator Loser vs 6th Group A
Spoon - 1st Eliminator Loser vs 9th Group B / 2nd Eliminator Loser vs 9th Group A
Winners to Semi-Finals

KO Stages
Semi-Finals
Winners of First Round Eliminators vs Winners of Second Round Eliminators

Winners of Semi Finals
Play-Offs (Optional - can be used for seeding in CWC6)
3rd/4th - Losers of Cup Semi-Finals

11th/12th - Losers of Plate Second Round Eliminators

Having lost 5 of the first 8 games TMOs beat ataraXIa to get their 4th win many weeks ago... this turned into a 7 run winning streak in CWC5, to get to 3rd position and a chance for the title. Every game from now on, starting with the last game of the regular season, is a playoff for the TMOs... so lets hope they have enough non-SA players in the squad to get past the hurdles...

That Li-Abdullah opening partnership must have been so painful to watch, though in fairness they did speed up from 5-an-over. Branning hax still went at double their SRs.

AX-W beat the Pirates to get their first win in an age, through a steady Ward-Price opening partnership. Just nabbed the BP too, but it doesn't matter now. Good knock from Holroyd there, should be said.

GG CC are bowling first in their R-6 CUP match against Samurai XI.

They are 146/5 after 35 overs

Babar Ijaz with two wickets; wicket a piece for Xenos, D souza, and Nyawo

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Haven’t picked up another wicket since…they are accelerating in the final overs.

193/5 with 8 overs remaining.

GG will have to restrict them to a score below 230

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Nyawo bowling the final over went for 21 runs.

The target for GG CC is 259.

That’s gonna take some chasing in R-6 of the CUP.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

The chase is going terrible.

46 to get in the last 10 overs…but with only 2 wickets in hand.

Peter Sutherland is putting up a fight!

 

[cnerd123]

C'mon Babar!!

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Legendary finish here

 

[cnerd123]

Nyawo is out for revenge here
