Have a guess....
All about the cash this week, as I'm at home to one of the sides near the bottom. He only has 2 players over 10k BTR and one of those is at Fresh, so the reserves + Raz and Rupak get another run-out.

Mrs BB at home to the bottom of the league, should have no problems even without Mohammed, York, Eagles and Potter.
 
BATTY SHRIMPERS v Balsys Wanderers

We can tell you that BATTY SHRIMPERS won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking quite cracked! A field day for the seam bowlers I would reckon on this partially cloud day.

DIBS DIPPERS v Old Norfolkians

We can tell you that DIBS DIPPERS won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking quite cracked! A field day for the seam bowlers I would reckon on this partially cloud day.
 
Welcome to Molyneux CG for the match between Beyond Heresy and Hell For Leather.

We can tell you that Beyond Heresy won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a touch on the green side. All the seam bowlers have been out there rubbing their hands on this partially cloud day.

Let's join our team for ball-by-ball commentary.

Looking to continue my good form against a rather mixed looking outfit who have lost their last 3 FC games. Their two openers are 45k and 60k, they have a 32k bowler and a 56k wicket-keeper then the rest are 3-7k.
 
No Suthers, Cooky, Plums or Lamo = probable FC defeat. Playing the England manager on Friday so have prioritised that one.

Mainstay Askew falls early, if I'm going to lose I'd rather do it quickly!

End of Over 2 (1 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 4-1, runrate=2.00
Croft 1-0-1-1
Cunningham* 1 (1 balls)
Julian 0 (5 balls)

Last Wicket: Askew lbw b. Croft 3 (FOW: 3/1)
 
Picked up 1 early on, and I have the right guy keeping this week :)

End of Over 11 (3 runs). Balsys Wanderers: 29-1, runrate=2.64
Singh lali 6-1-22-0
Dawkins* 14 (29 balls)
Winner 1 (9 balls)

Last Wicket: Gordon c. Andyraj b. Petty 13 (FOW: 20/1)

Thanks for the bid on Savage BB, I like the look of Lazarus on the TM

Hitchen* 0 (8 balls)

important game against the team one place below me. they claimed in a press release last week that this was a 'winnable game' for them and have rested players last week to be fit for it. obviously said press release has been pinned to the Petts dressing room door, and is doing the trick thus far...

End of Over 14 (Maiden). Smashing Sixes: 27-2, runrate=1.93
Ahmed 7-2-14-1
Tumisang* 0 (3 balls)
Bhutia 0 (5 balls)

No probs. I've upped it to 2m and someone's come over the top of that. Can't do much more I'm afraid. Yep, agreed on Lazarus, he looks handy.

Bluemooners have some dosh stashed away (21m). Level IV as well :eek: Wouldn't fancy coming up against them.

Charlie Charl strikes in his 1st over, and they're 3 down.

Our usual one man batting show:

Croft 4-0-24-1
Cunningham* 50 (62 balls)

Managed to find myself 90-4 against a bot. My 29BTR youth pull managed 4 off 26 balls, whilst my 11BTR youth pull got a golden duck.


End of Over 30 (10 runs). Geoff_Boycotts_Grandmother XI: 158-4, runrate=5.27
Montgomery 6-0-43-2
Canning* 74 (75 balls)
Holt 41 (34 balls)
Last Wicket: Harkin b. Montgomery 0 (FOW: 90/4)

Holt is actually a first team player and I was hoping he wouldn't have to bat so long. As I'm at home, I'm keen to maximise gate receipts and make it last 3 days.
 
Woo!

The players are off the field for lunch.

End of Over 35 (Maiden). ShrimperZone CC: 114-8, runrate=3.26
Harkness 6-3-13-2
Holsgrove* 14 (33 balls)
