Notice he hasn't come on to say what happened? ;)

And I was gonna umpire his match next week if he won :(

This  would've been great, let's hope Jay won.  :P

Imagine if PB dismissed Jay on a howler decision.   ;)

[Jay]

could be busy celebrating his match winning unbeaten century!

Or crying coz they got rolled for 41 and he got a shocker.

:'(

Would have referred the flower out of my caught behind... Smashed my pad, not the ball ::)
But wouldn't have made a difference  :-X

Cricket is a prick of a game.

Naahh.. The ump was a complete loony. Came up to me after yesterday's days play to say that our team missed out on two LBWs off my bowling by not appealing ::)

He dismissed you didn't he?  :P I do feel for ya mate, umpires can drive you nuts in any sport.

Yeah we don't talk about that bit haha. He'll always have that on me, I was hoping for some revenge next week :(

First practice match for the season with Monash, and my first match since U15s (like 6 years ago).

Anyway, we bowled first. flowering third over, batsman goes for the big cut, gets some edge, skies it over my head at a wide gully-ish position. Running back with the flight, took the catch 8)
Safe to say I was showerting bricks as it was up in the air though haha :P

Came on to bowl later on, first ball went right through the batter, bowled him middle stump 8)
Only bowled the 3 overs (was only 35 overs each), ended up with 1/9.

Took another catch after that as well, and made a couple of #goat stops in the field.

AND THEN WE BATTED. "Collapse" would be an understatement. After about 6 overs, we were 6/13. Yep. 7th wicket put in a small partnership, but then our #8 fell at 7/45. I came in at #9, needing 60 to win from about 23 overs.

60+ run partnership, flowering GOML. I only made like 20, and about 2000 leg byes, but still :P
Was flowering awesome, especially for my first hit in so long :D

[PowerBug]

Retire on that one, surely :P
