[MrB]

Sargeant dropped, could be a turning point after we'd slowed to a halt.

End of Over 46: 212-5, runrate=4.61, reqrunrate=4.00 (227-1)
Sishayi 10-0-47-1
Graham* 56 (87 balls)
Sargeant 84 (104 balls)

Last Wicket: Sinethemba b. Sishayi 19 (FOW: 74/5)

45.6 2 Sishayi to Sargeant
Lovely off drive there but some great fielding keeps it to just two runs.

45.5 4 Sishayi to Sargeant
Driven beautifully. The security man on the boundary bends down to collect the ball as it crosses the boundary rope but it kicks up and hits him straight on the nose. I can't tell you how many times I've seen that happen but it still makes me laugh.


45.2 . Sishayi to Sargeant
Dropped. That would have been a brilliant catch, but Coburn couldn't quite hold on as he flung himself one-handed to his right.

 

[MrB]

Oh man :unsure:

End of Over 48: 217-6, runrate=4.52, reqrunrate=5.50 (227-1)
Durgabakshi 10-2-17-2

Last Wicket: Sargeant b. Rankin 84 (FOW: 213/6)

Udayakumar 2 (5 balls)

Last Wicket: Sargeant b. Rankin 84 (FOW: 213/6)

Surely one of us will have a middle order win against all odds?

 

[MrB]

Boom!

And that's the end of the match. ShrimperZone CC won by 4 wickets.
monkey sloggers 227-1
ShrimperZone CC 228-6

End of Over 49: 228-6, runrate=4.65
Eccles 9-0-73-1
Graham* 60 (95 balls)
Udayakumar 11 (8 balls)

48.5 4 Eccles to Udayakumar
Eccles drops short and Udayakumar is all over it like a cheap suit. That will run away for four through deep midwicket.

48.4 4 Eccles to Udayakumar
They say that Sishayi is a Colossus in the field. Unfortunately the Colossus was toppled and the ball passed six inches past his outstretched hand. Four to Udayakumar.

I better enjoy that win don't think i'll be getting too many more this season!

 

[* ORM *]

Nice 11 run win against Relegated opps who forgot to put star player in. I'll take that. Ev-ery win is sacred, ev-ery win is good oh sorry not the what have you watched recently thread. Ok, just one more "waffer", Bon.

 

[MrB]

Not going well today, 2 best bats out early and others tired from FC exertions. Will have to hope my fit bowlers are on fire but as it's sunny I can't see us having much chance.

End of Over 19: 83-2, runrate=4.37

[Shrimper2thecore]

Cruising today. New boy George Proffitt took 5 wickets, as the oppo crumbled to 84 all out.

We are 32 without loss in reply.

 

[MrB]

Got a tough schedule over the next couple of weeks with Queens Park and Los Galactico in FC so I risked a normal today. It's sunny so this looks nicely chaseable assuming they don't go mad in the last ten.

End of Over 39: 157-3, runrate=4.03
Choles 8-1-21-1
Fettis* 5 (10 balls)
Findlay 32 (63 balls)

Ohalloran 7-2-25-0
Hindle* 39 (89 balls)
Fowler 29 (59 balls)
Last Wicket: Dulay b. Allan 37 (FOW: 83/3)

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

BOT bashed. Now have another managed team in my division, so at least I'll get 2 semi-competitive games this season...

 

[MrB]

Decision to normal pays off as the openers saw off their two big bowlers and are now feasting on the weak bowlers offerings (ok £10k wage isn't exactly 'weak' but it's not good enough).

End of Over 14: 68-0, runrate=4.86, reqrunrate=3.89 (207-6)
Bristow 2-0-17-0
Ahsamuddin* 34 (36 balls)
