BT20, games 1,2+3

Another game against a team I should beat. The test with BT20 is knowing how many players you can rest and still win!! I'm resting two bowlers and hoping the batsmen have enough to outscore their total.
 
End of Over 20: 59-7, runrate=2.95
Mbata 4-1-18-3
Hilton* 36 (44 balls)
Fontaine 2 (13 balls)

And 20 came off the last 12 balls. This engine gets odder and odder!!
 
37 off the last two overs makes mine a slightly more demanding target than it was going to be.

End of Over 20: 143-4, runrate=7.15
Barrowdale 4-0-21-0
Flint* 9 (6 balls)
Lebohang 60 (46 balls)

Last Wicket: Ferdinand c. Sandile b. Marriott 41 (FOW: 106/4)
 
We're chasing 169.

No issues here.

And that's the end of the match. ShrimperZone CC won by 8 wickets.
TheUsualSuspects 143-4
ShrimperZone CC 144-2
 
We won today chasing 165 (on PAN). We needed 52 off the last 4 overs and got them with 3 balls to spare, mainly thanks to some big Bob Birkett hitting (55*). Swayne finishing with an unbeaten 68.

Up to 4th on 10 points after my first competitive tied match on matchday 3.

Ended up tieing the game, we're 7th and I'll be quite happy to finish there at the end of the season.

Mrs BB won by 4 runs, and is now top of Level II with 4 wins out of 4...
 
Scumbug oppo loaded his team up today while I played as Normal. Still second after this and I had no aspirations of the title but I had this as a banker to avoid drop to V and now I've had to GFI tomorrow with the luxury of an OD and FC bot as my next fixtures I can afford to do so. I will almost certainly throw Thirsday against top of the table who should win title by a mile if he wants to do so
 
Taken a risk today, all 5 bowlers rested. Very much a case of seeing if my batsmen can beat the target my bowlers set.
 
Lol, I hope my batsmen have their eye in, could be a disastrous defeat if not!

End of Over 7: 68-3, runrate=9.71
Patrick 2-0-23-0
Brookes* 2 (4 balls)
Mcintosh 24 (14 balls)

Last Wicket: Mofokeng b. Clare 37 (FOW: 54/3)
 
Likewise here. Oppo has sold all his players bar about 3, so I've TIE'd. Unfortunately, 2 of the remaining 3 are caning us to all parts....

birmingham bashers v BATTY SHRIMPERS

BATTY SHRIMPERS won the toss and elected to field.
Pitch: Green

End of Over 10: 83-1, runrate=8.30
Begg 2-0-8-0
Crolidge* 35 (23 balls)
Bonner 47 (35 balls)

Last Wicket: Andries lbw b. Lindop 1 (FOW: 2/1)
 
Last 7 overs went for just 16 runs so shouldn't be any problems here, glad I rested all the bowlers.

Meadows* 30 (33 balls)
Thikhathali 0 (9 balls)
