13.2 4 Louw to Prag
Overpitched and Prag walks into that one with an exceptionally elegant straight drive which cuts between the men at mid off and mid on.
13.1 1 Louw to Murray
Strokes it into the leg side for a leisurely single

 

[loz]

need 17 from 2 overs to beat the top team, 4 wickets in hand

update: Ahmed brutalises the last over to win it with 3 balls to spare!

19.3 6 Kirk to Ahmed
Struck superbly over cow corner. Ahmed will be looking to cream a few more of those.
19.2 4 Kirk to Ahmed
Straight drive for four.
19.1 4 Kirk to Ahmed
Great timing off the back foot and the ball races through the covers for four.

 

[Grayson]

Jesus, lost by 10 runs with a huge ratings difference:

[Napster]

Welcome to Dans Demons CG for the match between Dans Demons and Napster's XI.

We can tell you that Dans Demons 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 sunny day.

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



0.1 . Stubbs to Murray
Stubbs was unlucky there! Murray was clearly beaten by both the pace and the bounce.

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Winner takes all game, but really should be a comfortable win on a TIE. Wanted to bowl 1st again, but at least it will give me something to watch for a couple of hours.

Bennies Boys v BATTY SHRIMPERS

We can tell you that Bennies Boys won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a cracker! Hard and fast - should be a run-fest out there on this partially cloudy and humid day.

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

League decider for Mrs BB as well, but again she should win easily on a TIE

DIBS DIPPERS v Edgbaston Earthquake

We can tell you that DIBS DIPPERS 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 and humid day.

 

[Napster]

Bugger

1.2 W Mohamed to Murray
Edged off the toe of the bat and it's Christmas come early for Marsden.
1.1 2 Mohamed to Murray
Length ball outside leg stump and swept away fine. Stubbs makes the chase and keeps them to two runs.

End of Over 1: 7-1, runrate=7.00
Stubbs 1-0-7-1
Murray* 1 (2 balls)
Sutherland 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Back b. Stubbs 6 (FOW: 7/1)


0.6 W Stubbs to Back
Good length ball outside off stump, nipping in off the wicket. Back moves forward and tries to square drive, but only manages a big inside edge onto the stumps.
0.5 . Stubbs to Back
Outside the off. Back had a feel at that but is beaten.
0.4 6 Stubbs to Back
Bang! Six of the best, that's how to play cricket!

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Lost a couple early on, but we should still have more than enough left in the side to win.

[blues_r_best]

Another winner takes all game here and I've put out a weakened side, Plummer being my best bowler playing is going for 10 an over.

End of Over 6: 61-0, runrate=10.17
Plummer 3-0-34-0
Poole* 19 (19 balls)
Karthikeyan 39 (17 balls)

Plummer is up for sale too, already had a bid of £2 million for him.

[MrB]

My toughest game of th egroup against an old league mate, they were chugging along ok but Hot Rod just took out two of them. Their main man is still in though and on a cracked pitch they have the bowlers to trouble us so will be hoping to wrap this up sooner rather than later.

End of Over 13: 71-5, runrate=5.46
Mushtaq 3-0-31-0
Clitheroe* 5 (2 balls)
Kwan 21 (33 balls)

Last Wicket: Holsgrove b. Horrigan 6 (FOW: 61/5)
