BT - Cup Round 4 & Week 5 YP

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Looks like I'm going to get a morale boosting win :), and my YP wasn't too bad. I've sacrificed Oconnor's last level of Stamina, to give the net to Pa

0 ITS, bloody annoying, would've been an U-19 WK/batsman if I got him week 1.

Sent in to bat first, which I didn't want due to PFL, and doing fine.

Very nice youth pull, those are pretty much the ideal stats for a trainee wicketkeeper, as keeping trains quicker than batting and the keeping net will allow his concentration to catch up quickly.

Worthless stamina though YB :(

How much do you think he'll get on the market? I'm really tempted to keep him if it's not much and find 3 nets for him and have him on a bat, WK and stamina. His wage is just 790 though too, so probably won't.

Oops missed that. Makes a big difference having worthless stamina as it would take forever to train him up to a decent level of stamina and those would be nets better used elsewhere.

Oppo all out, should be able to chase this down

A chaseable score, my bowlers did really well, even if I didn't select the right ones

End of Over 41: 146-10, runrate=3.56
Savage 5-2-4-3
Lipalesa* 0 (3 balls)

40.5 W Savage to Quailey
That was in the air for a long time, Gamage got under it, nearly dropped it and finally cradled it at the fourth attempt. Savage's heart was in his mouth there.

Lost Fat-Boy 1st ball, but going OK

Bad performance from the openers. Got Deakin to save it though.

Looking like a comfortable victory

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Won by 9 wickets, with 20 overs to spare. Through to the 5th round for only the 2nd time.

 

[Grayson]

Oh christ, we've bowled poorly.


End of Over 27: 117-3, runrate=4.33, reqrunrate=5.43 (241-10)
Deakin 7-1-17-2
Beck* 1 (7 balls)
Borrowdale 28 (29 balls)
Last Wicket: Mcghee lbw b. Deakin 29 (FOW: 108/3)

Deakin has just 3 overs to go, want him to get 2 more wickets to feel safe. Was hoping to win this quickly too, maybe should've PAN.

Beck 8 (24 balls)
Last Wicket: Mcghee lbw b. Deakin 29 (FOW: 108/3)

We look like crashing out here. Need to keep it tight until over 40 where Resha comes back. Barrowdale is low proficient at best but has batted well.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

1 more wicket probably wins it for you

 

[Grayson]

1 more wicket probably wins it for you

Possibly, but neither of these 2 will get it and they're leaking runs badly at the moment. Will be extremely annoying to crash out to a poor side due to failure by my regulars.

I need a massive collapse now. Bollocks bollocks bollocks. Guess going out will save PFL...bah :(

 

[Grayson]

Farking hell. My last 5 wickets went for 11, I need the same to happen but 6 wickets instead. I have a far superior bowler on but I can't see it happening.

Apologies for all the consecutive posts, just ventine frustration.

Resha's got one. Now need him to get about 3 more this over!

Hmmm
