[MrB]

All rounders trying to rescue us again. Sunny tomorrow though so we'll either need to bat the day out or just get out now and have a go at them tonight in more favourable conditions.

[* ORM *]

Franchise promoted. First team working hard to grind out the draw it needs. Very tough opps and 110 overs to survive with 14 wickets. Ubfortunately flat lasted one day and it's a slow pitch. Not overly confident here. Vague hope that they've forgotten to enforce follow on

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Couldn't finish it off, but they've gone BOT overnight so won't take long today.

End of Over 66 (4 runs). The Drummers: 146-3, runrate=2.21 (1st Inn: 45-10)

Franchise on course for a win which will guarantee that they stay up.

End of Over 45 (4 runs). Dumbledorks Army: 123-4, runrate=2.73 (1st Inn: 174-10)
Trail by 70 runs. (BATTIER SHRIMPERS II 367-7 dec)

Mee* 18 (17 balls)
Rafique 10 (13 balls)
Last Wicket: Carbon c. Hogg b. Bristow 40 (FOW: 94/4)

 

[Napster]

can the franchise team win this one?

End of Over 39 (1 runs). Nappers 2nd: 101-3, runrate=2.59 (1st Inn: 92-10)

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Won by an inns and 67.

Promotion (and a 10% member increase) guaranteed. Along with the 7% member increase for winning BT20, this will give us a healthy number of members next season....

Also fell short in my game. 2nd isn't too shabby. Hoping for an easy team relegated.

 

[MrB]

Doesn't get much closer than this!

1. Woking Phoenix.....9 6 1 2 0 27 27 146
2. ShrimperZone CC...9 6 1 2 0 27 27 146

Judgy's Legacy vs ShrimperZone CC
WestSide VendeTTa vs Woking Phoenix

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

What about

1. Geoff_Boycotts_Grandmother XI 9 6 2 1 0 18 27 133
2. Steel Rose 9 5 1 3 0 24 27 133

And I'm playing a bot.

Unfortunately I'm not going to get maximum bonus points.

 

[MrB]

I was going to ask questions but I see you're playing a super bot which changes things. Alas your rival is playing an actual bot so no promotion for you.

We probably need maximum batting points to get promotion so it's not looking good:

End of Over 23 (1 run). ShrimperZone CC: 90-3, runrate=3.91
Lead by 32 runs. (Judgy's Legacy 58-10)
Overs left today: 45
Waterhouse 7-0-21-2
Brennan* 40 (49 balls)
Ahsamuddin 0 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Sargeant c. Lake b. Waterhouse 8 (FOW: 90/3)

Woking on their way to full bowling points, they'll just need to match our batting points.

End of Over 66 (4 runs). WestSide VendeTTa: 167-7, runrate=2.53
Overs left today: 44
Marrium 21-7-48-3
Purches* 4 (28 balls)
Morrell 47 (112 balls)

Last Wicket: Pratley c. Mitchley b. Marrium 0 (FOW: 152/7)

 

[BrettieAngell]

Ending the season in style it seems.

End of Over 28 (3 runs). Maidstone CC: 85-3, runrate=3.04 (1st Inn: 135-10)
Trail by 154 runs. (Deep Backward Square Leg 374-10)
Overs left today: 39
Durno 2-0-4-0
Murad* 40 (56 balls)
Bucknell 4 (24 balls)
Last Wicket: Zanele lbw b. Wanless 16 (FOW: 65/3)

 

[MrB]

We made 360 and Woking only made 340 so we promote by 1 point!

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

I was going to ask questions but I see you're playing a super bot which changes things. Alas your rival is playing an actual bot so no promotion for you.

Annoyingly I make 360 in the second innings.

 

[* ORM *]

It's all dramatic here. Rank favourites Brandonians collapsed this morning. Opps need 129 to send me into V

 

[MrB]

Looking like a tense finish after two quick wickets!

End of Over 18 (4 runs). Bumbles Allstars: 71-3, runrate=3.94 (1st Inn: 284-10)
Trail by 57 runs. (Brandonians 296-10 & 116-10)

Legge* 0 (3 balls)
Mcclory 4 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Everett c. Wainwright b. Gomersall 23 (FOW: 67/3)

 

[* ORM *]

Starting to relax and savour the moment and my entry into top 100 next season.



End of Over 34 (3 runs). Bumbles Allstars: 115-4, runrate=3.38 (1st Inn: 284-10)
Trail by 13 runs. (Brandonians 296-10 & 116-10)

Last Wicket: Legge c. Phiri b. Wainwright 27 (FOW: 112/4)

 

[MrB]

Congrats. A fair few bots coming the other way so you could well find yourself jumping a fair bit.

Cheers two of us flying the SZ flag nicely in BT

Now to focus on Blinkhorns last game tomorrow before HOF and retirement.
