OD - Week 12

[MrB]

ShrimperZone CC v Parkway Sports

4th v 2nd. We go GFI as we're fully sublime however so are they so I expect they will too. They have 6 100k+ players, up till this week it was 7 but they sold the top rated one on Tuesday and don't seem to have replaced him yet. It was a fairly brutal beating last time even though I GFI'd but that sale my level things up a bit.

Even if we win we will probably drop back to 5th as Fingers XI are playing AFC Wimbledon so will get a massive NRR boost.

 

[The General]

I take on Jinxy's allstar's today on his cracked pitch on a partially cloudy and humid day so its certainly not going to be a run-fest out there today!

Im at full strength and can afford a GFI with everyone at sublime and considering the pitch, the game shouldn't go the full distance! Im 3rd and my oppo are 4th. Bit of dead game for me as i need one more win to guarantee a top 4 finish and if i lose this week i have the bottom team next week to beat so its all fairly comfortable!!

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

2nd (me) at home to 5th.

1 at Invigorated (Pollock), and another 5 at Energetic, but they all play on a GFI as we have a semi-bot next week in FC.

Should be a close game, but I'd be disappointed to lose.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4th placed Mrs BB takes on 6th in her game today, her PFl is in a slightly better state than mine, so she's also at full strength on a GFI.

 

[Napster]

Playing one of the bottom sides but rested a lot of players. Could be a tough one.

 

[The General]

I've won the toss and bowl first. All bowlers are at attacking!

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

We've had a result, oppo looks to have thrown the game although he has one decent batter hiding at 6. Could make up a bit of the 6 NRR diff between me and 1st :)

BATTY SHRIMPERS v Colne Dynamoes

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 partially cloudy day.

End of Over 2: 2-2, runrate=1.00
Middleton 1-1-0-1
Fowler* 1 (1 balls)
Khotsofalang 0 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Kimberley c. Evelyn b. Middleton 1 (FOW: 2/2)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIBS DIPPERS v Bowling Crofty

We can tell you that Bowling Crofty 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 partially cloudy day.

End of Over 2: 15-0, runrate=7.50
Wilkinson 1-0-6-0
Stride* 12 (8 balls)
Potter 3 (4 balls)

 

[MrB]

What a start! Hawkins was a filler but Ryan took out Croft for a duck who's a 150k guy with a 145 average.

End of Over 3: 8-2, runrate=2.67
Sutherland 2-0-3-1
Tšeliso* 4 (6 balls)
Sweeney 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Hawkins b. Sutherland 3 (FOW: 8/2)

 

[The Flying Scotsman]

I've played the other teams at the top and find myself sitting in pole position so as long as I don't slip up along the way, I should be OK for promotion. This game is my toughest of the ones left, and fielding first I can safely say I don't think I could have had a better start:

End of Over 1: 1-4, runrate=1.00
Coutts 1-0-1-4
Lyth* 1 (1 balls)
Mdingane 0 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Gore c. Padmakumara b. Coutts 0 (FOW: 1/4)


0.6 . Coutts to Mdingane
Cracking delivery. In the corridor of uncertainty and Mdingane had to play at that one.
0.5 W Coutts to Gore
There are some interesting field placings here as Coutts runs in to bowl. Very interesting! Gore got a thick edge and the ball flew straight to Padmakumara at fly slip!
0.4 W Coutts to Tarrant
I have no idea what sort of shot Tarrant was trying there, but he left a huge gap for the ball to go through. Although, it must be said, not as large as the newly opened gap between the leg and off stumps.
0.3 W Coutts to Fettis
Stick a fork in Fettis - he's done! Clean bowled!
0.2 W Coutts to Curtis
That's seamed in from well outside off. Curtis offers no shot and the umpire has no choice but to give him out.
0.1 1 Coutts to Lyth
The batsman manages to pull the short ball to deep mid wicket, but it's mistimed and he will only pick up one.

 

[MrB]

Glorious stuff from Ryan!

End of Over 6: 23-3, runrate=3.83
Ryan 3-0-16-2
Sweeney* 1 (4 balls)
Sattaur 6 (5 balls)

Last Wicket: Tšeliso b. Ryan 11 (FOW: 16/3)

Joey Tšeliso - Battrick Rating: 111,013

[* ORM *]

On toss and elected to bat purely to avoid tedium of a dull Friday (otherwise game would be over by midday). Got one eye on 3 v 1 but I do t expect him to slip up. 3rd place are 4 an over on a flat track.

 

[The Flying Scotsman]

Shouldn't be too long

The players are off the field for the break between innings.


End of Over 12: 17-10, runrate=1.42

Byfield* 3 (18 balls)

 

[Grayson]

Welcome to Alan's Big Plate for the match between Bowling Bowling Mushy and Southend.

We can tell you that Southend won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a touch on the green side. All the seam bowlers have been out there rubbing their hands on this partially cloudy day.

Lets join our team for ball-by-ball commentary.



End of Over 12: 48-3, runrate=4.00
Granville 1-0-1-0
Sanghera* 19 (30 balls)
Tenius 9 (20 balls)
Last Wicket: Cahill b. Rennie 11 (FOW: 22/3)

 

[MrB]

Annoying, Sweeney is rubbish but made 38 against us last time round to frustrate our efforts, doing it again.

End of Over 12: 48-3, runrate=4.00
Schofield 1-0-4-0
Sattaur* 20 (18 balls)
Sweeney 11 (27 balls)

Last Wicket: Tšeliso b. Ryan 11 (FOW: 16/3)

End of Over 13: 70-2, runrate=5.38
Mirza 2-0-3-1
Magloire* 6 (10 balls)
Livingstone 0 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Lay c. Gerrard b. Mirza 39 (FOW: 70/2)

Mirza's got one eye on his impending move.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Unfortunately, the top side's oppo has also thrown the game, the only saving grace is that the top side are batting 1st. We're going to need to knock off our chase pretty rapidly to make up any ground.

Woot!! Downside is they bat down to 11 (5 all rounders) so we still have three more 100k+ batsmen to wade through.
