FC Thread - Season 22

[* ORM *]

Oh dear. Fighting for survival here. Guessing I'll have to face around 70 overs. Not changing orders to retain the chance of an outside win

 

[MrB]

Couldn't have worked out better for me. Ran through them second innings then scored just slowly enough to ensure some day 3 gate receipts!

End of Over 24 (3 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 57-0, runrate=2.38 (1st Inn: 245-10)
Trail by 15 runs. (mighty minnions 228-10 & 89-10)
May 5-0-11-0
Lamey* 26 (72 balls)
Sinethemba 31 (72 balls)

innings win this week - our first win of the season and takes us off bottom at the expense of the team we beat. BOT'ed Angband Town to come in OD.

 

[Napster]

9 wicket win for them in the end. Bugger and damn

Not a bad guess. 71 overs to get 259 or more realistically get a draw which should keep me 2nd if I've calculated correctly. 63 overs to hold out.

 

[blues_r_best]

[* ORM *]

Managed to hold out for a draw - in second and it doesn't get any easier next week. Me at home to current divisional leader

 

[* ORM *]

Me 2nd at home to 1st. If I can take 2 quick wickets he doesn't bat deep. Seems 3rd place has cocked up bowling orders. May not pay too heavily for that. Hoping for record FC receipts. Damn, not quite but not far off.

 

[* ORM *]

Jeez. I'm getting tonked all over the place.

 

[* ORM *]

Yay from 93 for 0 to 105-4 and all top order gone. Would like to Skittle them out as they're bowling attack is very tasty

 

[* ORM *]

125 all out. Happy with that but lets see how I perform

 

[Napster]

Pleased to bowl them out, but with Pc+H forecast tomorrow could do with getting through the remainder of the day without losing any more wickets.

back on control.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

My franchise won the toss and elected to bat.

At lunch we are 19/7.

Yes, nineteen whole runs in a session

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

To put that in some sort of context, Delhi Daredevils have scored 19 runs in the first two overs of their IPL game - and that's before Capey gets into bat.

Now 19/8 off of 39 overs.

Epic.

 

[* ORM *]

Minor wobble but at 158-4 and a lead of 31 I'm in control. Still batting to come with a couple of them overdue a decent score. Targeting 280. Would like plenty of overs at them today (or tomorrow from your viewpoint)

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Ended the day on 44/1 in reply to their 213ao. Declaration set for 280, as it's PC+H today and Sunny tomorrow, so I'd like to get a few overs at them in the dodgy weather.
