0.3 nb. Nguyen-lee to Watkins
Excellent technique there, except Watkins has missed the ball.
0.2 W Nguyen-lee to Dobinson
Give me an 'L'! Give me a 'B'! Give me a 'W'! What does that spell? LBW! He's out!

[loz]

Playing dons sas, who are 2nd in my division. They beat me by 268 runs last time out, but I was only 2 overs away from securing a draw. Their fitness doesn't look that hot today and they've gone for a dusty track which is going to suit Cairns and Awan, so i've got a chance of getting something. They have to start favourites though, they're 2nd on merit behind a very good team that dropped down from IV.

we're batting, and it's low-scoring so far.

End of Over 6 (Maiden). Pettefershire CCC: 9-0, runrate=1.50
Bramble 3-1-6-0
Latham* 6 (11 balls)
Thornley 2 (26 balls)

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

4-4.

Bollocks.

End of Over 11 (4 runs). Big Dog Sloggers: 48-1, runrate=4.36
Mullins 6-0-26-0
Mapes* 14 (32 balls)
Kirkland 0 (0 balls)

Well I've surpassed my last effort when I played this lot by getting a wicket, albeit a run out!

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

5 down, and I'm not yet into double figures

**runs off and starts weeping**

 

[MrB]

Holding off their openers reasonably well but it's another dusty track and their spinners are waiting.

End of Over 12 (3 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 36-1, runrate=3.00
Devaney 6-2-15-1
Lamey* 18 (48 balls)
Askew 4 (22 balls)

Last Wicket: Sandile b. Devaney 0 (FOW: 6/1)

Oh and Plummer took another wicket for Windies today taking his total to 5! One match left tomorrow and then I can start using him again.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

BATTY SHRIMPERS v Hungryasthesea

We can tell you that BATTY SHRIMPERS 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 sunny day.

End of Over 10 (7 runs). Hungryasthesea: 32-0, runrate=3.20
Petty 5-0-22-0
Huckerby* 12 (24 balls)
Maccallum 19 (36 balls)

Playing a few of the better players today, including Evelyn and O'connor, as we up against the team in 2nd, and I don't want to take any chances.

[Yorkshire Blue]

Poor keeping. Two easy runs are stolen as the ball is spilled out towards long leg.
19.5 . Patel to Mcintosh
Flicked around to Briers at fine leg.
19.4 . Patel to Mcintosh
Mcintosh is looking at his bat like it has a hole in it - that last delivery went straight through him!
19.3 4 Patel to Mcintosh
Driven beautifully down the ground for four.
19.2 . Patel to Mcintosh
Drifting away from Mcintosh and through to the keeper.
19.1 4 Patel to Mcintosh
With a flick of the wrists worthy of the sub-continent, Mcintosh finds the gap for four.
