So ZCC are waiting on the AXI vs TMO Cup semi final, will play the loser in the 3rd/4th play-off. If it's AXI, they will host. If it's TMO, we will host. TBI will play the winner in the Cup final - I think they host either way, as the finished with the most points in the group stage.

FHK are waiting on the WCC vs Dynamo Morpork Plate semi final, to see who they will face in the Plate final. I think we'd be the home team either way - both Morpork and WCC finished 5th in their respective groups while FHK finished 4th. The loser of this semi final will play Ashgrove Astronauts in the 9th/10th play-off - Astronauts home team either way, also because of their higher group stage finish.

Both Spoon semi finals are still TBC, will be interesting to see how that plays out. Winners to the finals, losers to the 15th/16th play off.

There are two seeding play-off matches confirmed atm - Jura CC should play host to Moooo for 5th/6th position while GG CC should host Honest Hunks for 11th/12th (@Charlie B @SillyCowCorner1 @honestbharani ).

Tim Chester is having a great day today. Top scored with 68 off 69 opening the batting vs Ashgrove Astronauts in the ZCC Dev Invitational Game in the morning, and followed the up with 6/42 in a SOD Friendly vs GG CC.

 

[cnerd123]

Some consolation for ataraxia, as AXW put on an impressive chase vs Dynamo Schmaltzberg to secure a spot in the CWC5 Spoon Final!

sorry, Image quality not great, print screened and cropped in email but legible from my end.

@Jarquis - re Charminster CC v Plymouth Pirates friendly request.

If I've missed anything let me know.

 

[ataraxia]

forgot to post this last night, it looks:

Great performance from TMO, really was a pancake pitch which the RFs managed to do well on. Well played!

AX-W beating Schmaltzberg completes a fortune-reversal sorta day. Wonderful O'Callaghan knock.

scouts OP plz help

 

[cnerd123]

not quite nat potential but goddamn

 

[ataraxia]

He's gonna be sold, high accuracy med isn't for me. AX-W might make use of him though lol, somehow.

 

[cnerd123]

if you crank up his pace he could do a job as a middle-overs dry bowler that also bats as an anchor/opener. Really useful on a high pace/moisture wicket.

[StephenZA]

Thank for the game @ataraxia... was a great close development game today. Nice and close!

I haven’t set orders since the season ended.

Will catch up with all of my game soon

I see that Mooo has beaten ZCC comfortably in a T20 encounter.

Aat Bernstein of all people bowling with discipline and dedication. He’s a pure batsman, btw

That game was insane. I experimented with bowling orders slightly (Younis and Ahsan sharing 4 between them while Ahsan captained) and got absolutely pumped. I don't think I've ever seen such high BQ overall go for that many runs tho.

We were on track to chase it down, but then our tail collapsed. 4 wickets for 4 runs or something like that. Arif Jalal had a shocker - 1/52 and first ball duck. Samra did **** all too. Had he clicked we would have won it.

I think we win that more often than not, just a great day out for Moooo's hitters.

 

[cnerd123]

So since we're on the verge of the new season in-game and the Finals of CWC5 are drawn up, I'd like to start the recruitment drive to get some new players.

First I'd like to invite those already playing Battrick and FTP, hoping they might find the challenge of a new game along with a vibrant CW community to be incentives enough to sign up - @Himannv @Son Of Coco @NZTailender @dontcloseyoureyes

Then I'd like to invite a couple of posters who I feel might enjoy a game like Stumped, and who would be a lot of fun to play with - @CricAddict @Prince EWS @Athlai @Flem274* @Howe_zat

All you need to do to sign up is register on https://www.stumpedgame.com
If you do join, please use my referral code - REF723PFM! You will get an extra week's worth of free membership, which gives you access to plenty of cool perks and features in the game!

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Come on guys, let’s do it.

I wish I can sign up for another team with a different email address
(I’m joking)

 

[cnerd123]

everyone please feel free to recruit other members as well! can use your own referral codes

I’m just looking at the teams in the leagues that my teams are It’s gonna be a fun DEV 2.2 league in the Americas with four CW teams in it:

1. Moooo
2. FHK
