Hubbards Hills CC v ShrimperZone CC

5th v 4th, mainly by virtue of them having played Parkway. Hoping to actually pick up some batting points for the first time this season then go from there!
 
Not a great toss to lose as it's batting weather today and day 3. Draw is now probably likely.

End of Over 11 (Maiden). Hubbards Hills CC: 24-0, runrate=2.18
Overs left today: 99
Digana 6-3-11-0
Beard* 14 (34 balls)
Usman 9 (33 balls)
 
I have the joys of a double-header versus Parkway this week. Won the toss under PC+H conditions on an uneven deck, so hoping to get some bowling points - they'll be all we get this match. Considered throwing it but decided against doing so.

End of Over 13 (4 runs). Parkway Sports: 37-1, runrate=2.85
Overs left today: 97
Blake 1-0-4-0
Ameer* 7 (12 balls)
Swonnell 23 (40 balls)
Last Wicket: May c. Rennie b. Raipur 7 (FOW: 10/1)
 
I won the toss and elected to have a bowl first in PC+H conditions. A great start against one of the only non-bot teams in the division!

The players are off the field for lunch.

End of Over 35 (1 run). Ferndown Wayfarers: 98-4, runrate=2.80
Overs left today: 75
Gleeson 9-1-10-0
Mcdonagh* 13 (32 balls)
Stratford 9 (18 balls)
Last Wicket: Mcewan Run Out 32 (FOW: 72/4)
 
Knaphill CC v BATTY SHRIMPERS

We're 2nd and take on the side in 3rd this week. Couple of the bowlers are at Invigorated, so they've been left out, meaning we've got a Respectable trainee playing. All the batters are at Sublime though. Going well so far....

We can tell you that BATTY SHRIMPERS 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 sunny day.

End of Over 40 (Maiden). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 150-2, runrate=3.75
Overs left today: 70
Sheffield 10-2-23-1
Pollock* 50 (34 balls)
Downing 2 (25 balls)

Last Wicket: Evelyn c. Keith b. Sheffield 47 (FOW: 126/2)

DIBS DIPPERS v Here All Week

Mrs BB in 3rd, takes on the side in 4th. Good toss to win, and she should have it wrapped up in 2 days.

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 cloudy and humid day.

End of Over 11 (2 runs). DIBS DIPPERS: 39-0, runrate=3.55
Trail by 17 runs. (Here All Week 56-10)
Overs left today: 71
Skipper 6-0-18-0
Stride* 20 (26 balls)
Gowland 18 (40 balls)
 
Hmmm, decided to play BFG at invig for the extra batting, he's getting knocked about by Charlton. Sandy also seems determined to run Diggers into the ground despite being set to max 7 overs per spell.

End of Over 42 (5 runs). Hubbards Hills CC: 94-2, runrate=2.24
Overs left today: 68
Digana 14-7-27-0
Charlton* 18 (20 balls)
Van-geersdaele 25 (49 balls)

Last Wicket: Beard Run Out 22 (FOW: 64/2)
 
Up against Phils Hotspurs, forgot to change my lineup to put a few reserves in there.

End of Over 9 (Maiden, 1b). Phils hotspurs: 4-5, runrate=0.44
Trail by 363 runs. (Southend United 367-1)

Chipping away at them, Wilkey is the key, probably their best batsman.

End of Over 64 (6 runs). Hubbards Hills CC: 148-4, runrate=2.31
Overs left today: 46
Marriott 8-2-15-1
Ward* 6 (17 balls)
Wilkey 18 (30 balls)

Last Wicket: Van-geersdaele c. Lamey b. Benjamin 39 (FOW: 129/4)
 
Their tailenders are sticking around for far too long for my liking.

End of Over 83 (Maiden). Ferndown Wayfarers: 190-9, runrate=2.29
Overs left today: 27
Carsley 22-9-40-1
Phindile* 16 (69 balls)
Tann 21 (77 balls)
Last Wicket: Muckle c. Raees b. Gleeson 0 (FOW: 146/9)
 
Finally got one of them.

86.2 W Carsley to Tann
Missing leg, missing off but hitting middle half way up, plumb.

All out for 192 to stop them getting any batting points.

Now to see how my batsmen do against a solid looking bowling lineup. Hopefully their excursions with the bat will have taken a bit out of them!
 
Picked up their main guy and the rest quickly folded. Hopefully we can add a few runs tonight.

End of Over 95 (Maiden). Hubbards Hills CC: 209-9, runrate=2.20
Overs left today: 15
Benjamin 22-5-44-3
Stoltz* 0 (5 balls)
Beenham 0 (6 balls)

Last Wicket: Deakin c. Lamey b. Digana 0 (FOW: 209/9)
 
1st v 2nd, and against the only other human team in my lowly league.


The pitch is looking slow and low. Tough for everyone. Could be a low scoring match on this partially cloudy and humid day.


End of Over 8 (Maiden). Grupetto: 4-3, runrate=0.50
Trail by 246 runs. (Deleven 250-10)
Overs left today: 16

Happy with that!
 
They're making a comeback

Fairly happy with the days play, but lost my best batsman, Westhead, in the final over before close to put a bit of a dampener on things.

End of Over 23 (Maiden). Toro Bulls: 72-2, runrate=3.13
Trail by 120 runs. (Ferndown Wayfarers 192-10)
Overs left today: 0

Last Wicket: Westhead b. Tann 27 (FOW: 72/2)
 
Eventually got the 10th wicket leaving us 9 overs to bat and we saw it out without loss, only adding 20 runs though. Weather changes tomorrow though so who knows what will happen.
 
1st (us) vs 2nd (them) this week. Bowled them out for 221 yesterday which i thought was a great result with us batting down to 8 in this game- then promptly collapsed to 33-5 at the close. 51-5 now as we try and salvage something.
 
Was ticking along nicely but as usual two quick wickets fall and the game is now in the balance.....

End of Over 32 (2 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 76-3, runrate=2.38
Trail by 136 runs. (Hubbards Hills CC 212-10)
Overs left today: 87
