FC - Match 9

Just finished and won my game

Biggest ever score for one day yesterday closing on End of Over 110 (8 runs). N-Trance shire: 745-6, runrate=6.77

Then bowled them out for 34 and 13 today.

Good times!
 
Top work Muse - massive congrats!

End of Over 29 (12 runs). Durrington Albion: 54-3, runrate=1.86 (1st Inn: 211-10)
Lead by 8 runs. (General Stars 257-10)
Overs left today: 12
Ikramullah 5-1-24-0
Uitenbogaardt* 20 (51 balls)
Xingwana 20 (36 balls)

Last Wicket: Kanelo st. Browne b. Richardson 1 (FOW: 15/3)

Hoping to eek one or two more out in the remaining 12 overs!
 
Well done Muse :clap:

Won my game by and inns and loads, picking up 19 points in the process. Rather annoyingly though, the 4th placed side are turning over the leaders who have already won the division. We play the leaders next week, so might have to hope that they have an important OD game following our game.

Mrs BB's game looking like a draw unless one of them collapses 2nd time around.

DIBS DIPPERS v Four Oaks Saints CC

Four Oaks Saints CC have resumed their innings.

Pitch: Dusty

End of Over 4 (5 runs). Four Oaks Saints CC: 10-0, runrate=2.50 (1st Inn: 245-10)

I closed with a narrow lead of 744.

Think I might have got my declaration wrong:blush:

Anyway opposition one down, might be on for my first FC win of the season!
 
Not much contribution from Dr Chandra but Richie is going the right way. Hopefully we can get to 200+ ahead tonight, have a ten over thrash in the morning and then set about bowling them out.

End of Over 18 (6 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 62-2, runrate=3.44 (1st Inn: 259-10)
Lead by 116 runs. (Seaside Special 205-10)

Cunningham 19 (17 balls)

Last Wicket: Guneratne c. Barnard b. Crow 8 (FOW: 37/2)

Elsewhere in the Championship, with Muse picking up max points against Dobcross and Angband only getting two batting points, it means Muse is all but mathematically confirmed as champions. As it stands, Angband will have to win this match (not certain), get max points against SS and rely on me getting max points against Muse just to tie the points total. On the basis of the last of those requirements being the most far fetched I think we can say congrats to Muse on being the first ShrimperZone player to bring home one of the big titles.

:Worthy:

I've been so busy today I completely forgot about this! Cheers all, didn't expect it before the season began!
 
FFS, ticking along ok and building a lead and then we managed to score just 10 runs from the final 12 overs so we're only 190 clear rather than the 220 it looked like at one stage.

Richie was the main culprit, having hit 32 off 40 balls he proceeded to hit a further 7 in 82 balls before getting out in the final over. I can't afford to leave myself short of overs so I'm going to set them to V Attacking in the morning and declare at 225. Fingers crossed.....
 
Anyone else ever had an out hit ball twice as per my first over today. Opps 2 down 100 ahead my bats set to defensive but relying on 4th to collapse and lies their game
 
Yeah, happens every so often.

Very attacking tactics has reaped not many runs and a wicket lost already. This is going to be very touch and go today. If we do collapse it's hopefully a sign that the wicket is doing something.

End of Over 51 (1 run). ShrimperZone CC: 141-5, runrate=2.76 (1st Inn: 259-10)
Lead by 195 runs. (Seaside Special 205-10)
Overs left today: 108
Bancroft 12-1-25-2
Wanless* 2 (6 balls)
Graham 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Helmsley c & b. Bancroft 47 (FOW: 141/5)
 
There it is. 93 overs to bowl them out, if I don't they will almost certainly win relegating me automatically. If it somehow ends in a draw we have to outresult them in the final game by some distance.

The players are off the field for the change of innings.

End of Over 66 (2 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 180-7, runrate=2.73 (1st Inn: 259-10)

Get in! That's their £77k pw batsman gone early doors, advantage us.

End of Over 3 (Maiden). Seaside Special: 1-1, runrate=0.33 (1st Inn: 205-10)
Trail by 233 runs. (ShrimperZone CC 259-10 & 180-7)
Overs left today: 90

Wolfenden 29 (97 balls)

Last Wicket: Nkoe b. Ikramullah 2 (FOW: 207/9)
 
Couldn't have asked for much more today. Think this will leave us 6 clear with one to play.

End of Over 49 (Maiden). Seaside Special: 99-8, runrate=2.02 (1st Inn: 205-10)
Trail by 135 runs. (ShrimperZone CC 259-10 & 180-7)

And that's the end of the match. ShrimperZone CC won by 132 runs.



End of Over 52 (1 run). Seaside Special: 102-10, runrate=1.96 (1st Inn: 205-10)

Benjamin 8-5-13-1
Talal* 36 (92 balls)
Last Wicket: Bancroft c. Lamey b. Benjamin 2 (FOW: 102/10)
 
1st has 40 overs to get 157 against 4th. I'm on for a draw. Any other combo and I'm relegated.
 
Bollox. There was 1 game this season where I decided to field donkeys vs top for PFL. That decision will see me 20 points behind next weeks opponent and safety rather than perhaps 16 points or less. One bad decision and relegation !
 
Annoying as could have done without a 330 overs game!

End of Over 37 (9 runs). General Stars: 107-1, runrate=2.89 (1st Inn: 257-10)
Trail by 63 runs. (Durrington Albion 211-10 & 216-10)
Carpenter 3-0-15-0
Waterhouse* 29 (36 balls)
Sookram 51 (101 balls)

Last Wicket: Browne b. Wolfenden 22 (FOW: 53/1)


And that's the end of the match. The match is drawn


MASSIVE game tomorrow and the oppo had an easy win in well under 2 days in their FC match!
