Match Discussion and Banter Here 8)
Up against Alex, likely to open with Trupti, but could make a last minute change.
Let's see if Daz is really a giant killer :P Changing my batting order so will be interesting to see how that goes.
I have no chance against Shaggy. He rates too high for me.
You have every chance against me... I'm crap. :x
How much do you rate ML?
126-127k in my last friendly.
That's only 5-10 lower than I do, so it's pretty close.
Well hope it will be close then.
Here's to hoping I can pull off a coup with my older recruits that I got specifically for this season to strengthen my bowling so I don't relegate and can compete in my league. :P
I've got a fairly young team so should struggle.
I'll probably get smashed the living daylights out of me, but why not go down swinging then? :P.

That's my philosophy as well, HP. Hope my new recruit can hit the ball though.
I hate when people do that "I'll get smashed" bullshower then get up for a dominating win, especially when they out rate the opponent as it is lol
Just changed my tactics a bit so hopefully it pays off. Uneven pitch so I'm playing another seamer instead of my 2nd spinner :-\ Won't be on tomorrow to watch it though :(
I have yet another Flat pitch. 2 in a row, so flowering homosexual -_- lol
Well I have no chance against BP and Freedom ;)
I forgot to set tactics -__-. Woke up a little too late :'(.
Taking their time.

S. Ivory 3 (6b) , L. Rahmann 6 (12b) , K. Permaul 2-0-8-0

http://www.fromthepavilion.org/commentary.htm?gameId=895303 pretty good start against Daz :D
BP is smashing me.... :(

I only like Flat Pitches when I'm batting... ;) Otherwise I hate them too...

S. Ryan 28 (41b) , S. Bartrim 46 (43b) , W. Kimber 2-0-9-0
14.4 . Brophy to Gecko : [dropped] In the air straight to mid-on and Ingall drops a simple chance.
14.3 6 Brophy to Gecko : Wow! Gecko picked the line early and just slogged that back past Brophy.
14.2 6 Brophy to Gecko : Brophy has pitched this one up to Gecko who confidently drives this over mid-on. In fact Gecko has really got onto this, into the stands it goes, what a six!
-__-
End of over 15 (16 runs) - John Howard's Coathangers(95-1) RR 6.33

R. Carney 28 (39b) , B. McFarlane 8 (11b) , J. van den Hof 3-0-11-1
As predicted, RB is slightly dominating. But on a batter and FM pitch, could still be in for a shock.
End of over 20 (9 runs) - Hello(105-2) RR 5.25
R. Carney 40 (49b) , B. McFarlane 22 (25b) , J. van den Hof 5-0-21-1
Not a bad run rate currently. Just brought up the 50 partnership as well.
HP, did you see my defending of you? He shut up quick. :x
End of over 21 (4 runs) - John Howard's Coathangers(114-1) RR 5.43
S. Gecko 36 (25b) , S. Ivory 41 (67b) , G. Hart 1-0-4-0
I need to take some wickets.
That is 50 runs for Carney (50 runs, 51b 5x4 1x6) SR:98.04
20.6 4 Duncan to Carney : Duncan strays just a bit full and Carney steers it between the cover fielders, and with enough timing to beat Smith storming around the boundary. Four lovely runs.
20.5 6 Duncan to Carney : Duncan bowls a lollipop and Carney rocks back and gives it the full treatment. Six runs!
20.4 1 Duncan to McFarlane : Punched into the ground off the back foot.
20.3 . Duncan to McFarlane : McFarlane belts it back at Duncan. The ball crashes into the stumps, sending the bails flying, before stopping at the base of the stumps. Very unlucky.
20.2 4 Duncan to McFarlane : Awful long-hop by Duncan. McFarlane's eyes light up as he rocks back and pulls the ball powerfully in front of square into the boundary rope.
20.1 4 Duncan to McFarlane : One step, two steps, three steps, FOUR!
Saw that Shaggy. Thanks for doing that. I don't think they like outsiders much. Won't even give me a shot even though I answer all their questions.
who shut up?
A guy on the off-site forums.

I am pretty much stuffed. Knowing my luck my outs/outs rfs and exp/exp wristy will fail on the crumbling pitch as well -_-
Dang Alex. That is bad :o. At least BOOMZ is doing well. Victory for our Franchise!!! ;D.
I've got a little pop up on my match page so I don't have to check out your games with the scoreboard there :D. Love being a member ;D.

This is going well ;D Geary is paying me back for giving him a shot.
27.5 W Kimber to Ives : [catch] This is why batting against spin is an art form few truly possess. Kimber has flighted this one. Ives's tried to defend it from the crease but just loops it up to Rethans at short leg. Simple catch and a simple dismissal.
B. Ives c A. Rethans b. W. Kimber 12 (14b 2x4 0x6) SR:85.71
Now I'm bowling to Freedom!!! :'(
Yes HP, it is. Hopefully I can make 250 but I doubt it.

28.6 W Hart to Ivory : Ivory has come down the track and tried to hoist that over long on's head, but instead it has gone straight up! Clements has called for it and takes the catch with ease.
S. Ivory c D. Clements b. G. Hart 92 (99b 6x4 2x6) SR:92.93
NO TON FOR YOUUUUUUUUUU!
Thanks Shaggy. :P
29.1 W Smith to Carney : [catch] Carney drives at a wide ball, but only succeeds in giving an easy catch to Hafeez at point.
R. Carney c F. Hafeez b. T. Smith 66 (71b 6x4 1x6) SR:92.96

For someone with dreadful power, Gecko smashes boundaries at will. Six 4's and four 6's... What the flower lol
Looks like I won't be training his power ever. If I do he will be worse at hitting boundaries. :P
It happens Shaggy. Maybe was poor power and always scored over 50 with a few boundaries.
De Smeth has poor power (use to be dreadful) and always takes wickets ;).
End of over 35 (1 run) - DazBurg's Greatness(122-5) RR 3.49
E. Anderson 0 (0b) , S. Ritula 10 (20b) , K. Daley 8-1-18-1
Got Bryant ;D was his last resistence really...
I mean this in a good way, but this guy is probably the best batting keeper I have seen. This innings is awesome by him.
Who me?
By Gecko, yes. It is a batting wicket but he is awesome.
36.5 W Stevenson to McFarlane : Slower ball outside the off stump, McFarlane doesn't get the required elevation to clear the man inside the circle and holes out to Hafeez at mid-off. It's a combination of smart bowling and poor batting.
B. McFarlane c F. Hafeez b. T. Stevenson 75 (79b 5x4 2x6) SR:94.94 That is the 50 partnership (50 runs, 45b, 2x4, 0x6) SR:111.11
What a way to bring up the 50 partnership ::). A good innings nonetheless from him.
I picked him up for 84k and he has scored very well for me. In 3 SOD friendlies he has got 1 century and 1 fifty and in his only T20 he got 22 off 9 balls. ;D
And to think, I dropped Gecko on like 15. flower that sucks now I think about it.

F. Mabothe lbw b. V. Rogers 28 (35b 0x4 0x6) SR:80.00

And Kelly's a better batsman than Freedom
40.5 6 Rollox to Bartrim : That was barely medium pace from Rollox, and Bartrim had no trouble smashing that over long-off. Dropped in the crowd, though, as the spectator valued his beer above the catch.
40.2 4 Rollox to Bartrim : Glorious shot through the off side! Bartrim just waited for that and has driven it through the gap for four. That was all timing.
40.1 4 Rollox to Bartrim : Superb timing, pitches outside off and moves away a little, he waits for it, transfers his weight onto the back foot and punches it wide of cover. That just raced away.
And Bartrim's woken up
That is 100 runs for Gecko (101 runs, 82b, 8x4, 4x6) SR:123.17 ;D
40.4 W Brophy to Peterson : Goes for the big lofted drive, but doesn't time it at all and rather tamely picks out Hart on the edge of the circle.
C. Peterson c G. Hart b. G. Brophy 20 (30b 0x4 0x6) SR:66.67 :(

Shame it wasn't Gecko but I'll take it.
I'm glad it wasn't Gecko.
41.5 W Bartlett to Bartrim : Bartrim played down the wrong line to a ball angled into him. A sniff of swing as well and a raucous appeal as it hit him on the front foot. It was in line and hitting leg.
S. Bartrim lbw b. C. Bartlett 137 (130b 13x4 1x6) SR:105.38

Still a good 137 BP. He's killed me!!!

43.5 W Lidgerwood to Gecko : Tossed up on the stumps and Gecko slogs across the line. The ball clips the leading edge and balloons up towards mid-off.
S. Gecko c F. O'Neill b. P. Lidgerwood 120 (92b 10x4 5x6) SR:130.43
AHA GOT THE PRICK!
:'( Good innings though. Let's see how many catches and stumpings he gets now. :P
Bowlers collapsed. Allen still in so just need De Smeth to stay.
Least I cracked 260. Would of liked 300 though :(.
None, because I ain't going to go out... Dur!
44.4 W Brophy to Francese : Short of a good length delivery on the stumps, Francese makes room and takes a swing. The ball clips the top edge and balloons up towards mid-on.
M. Francese c G. Hart b. G. Brophy 0 (4b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00
Collapse time... Wooo!
Keep dreaming Shaggy. :P
My finisher is coming out to bat now. Probably won't do anything, but good to have the talent.

It's the name thing at the moment... When he becomes a part of the Shags family, he will be assured half centuries.
He's a dreadful Batter with no power :P. And he bats at 11 normally ;D.

Both openers now!! Flat pitch..........
Nice RR BOOMZ. :P

JOHNNY! ;D ;D ;D Doing exactly as you should. Bowl Fast. Bowl Agressive. Get wickets.
I honestly have no idea BOOMZ lol :D At least you didn't lose a wicket to go with it lol
or not BP...
2.5 6 Taufel to Farnsworth : Nailed it. Yep - that's gone! A big, thumping strike over long-on. He just stood, swung and the ball sailed for six, several rows back.
;D ;D ;D
I've opened with a FM and a FS. Risky and it hasn't really payed off yet. :(
3.6 b Mabothe to Crawford : Crawford lets that one go through to Cain who fumbles it trying to take it one handed. Nye is alert and calls Crawford through for a sharp single.
4 flowering byes already Ethan? You realise Martinez is standing right there waiting to take your job?
My batsmen have woken up ;D

Cruising along at the cost of ML's weird decision and highly unrecommended FS opening bowler.
I kinda forgot to change him with my fasty and I was experimenting with the bowling lineup.
End of over 7 (4 runs) - Gunz n Rozez(26-1). 169 runs required from 43 overs. RR 3.71 RRR 3.93

Chudasama gone :( Has been a bit dissapointing since I got him... got a 50 the other day but other than that not much. & he got out for fricking handling the ball >:( wtf u idiot lol
flower you Nye...
8.5 W O'Brien to Nye : [catch] Gone! Nye falls to a pull shot. It was short, on middle stump and Nye pulls it weakly to square leg where Joubert takes the catch.
P. Nye c P. Joubert b. J. O'Brien 12 (18b 1x4 0x6) SR:66.67
7.2 4 Mabothe to Nye : [misfield] Ryan puts a foot out but can't manage to stop the ball. Perhaps he should try using his hands next time?
Here's what's going to happen Samuel. At the next training session I will hit balls at you while I have small electrodes attached to your nuts, these will be linked to a car battery. And for everyone you misfiel. ZAP! >:(
JOHNNY! ;D ;D ;D
I hate this game. You win BP. The dread brothers have destroyed me... Daz one week, then BP the next :( :'(

Need a wicket badly.
No you don't ML. If you get a wicket, then you have Clements coming in, and he will hurt the run rate. :P
Well can't your team just bat like the Australians are? Please. :P
10.2 W Joubert to Phillips : [catch] Wonderful delivery from Joubert which moves away after pitching. Phillips looking to drive through the off side, not fully in position to drive, gets the edge through to Cain.
J. Phillips c E. Cain b. P. Joubert 0 (3b 0x4 0x6) SR:0.00

Hellllllllllllllllloooooo Clements!
I need one over, surely you can give me that.... :)
14.3 4 Joubert to Beveridge : [misfield] Oh dear... that's gone straight through Ives's legs and out to the boundary. The crowd will be on his back all day now.
TWICE IN FIVE BALLS? >:( >:( >:( GRRRRFT FKKKKK
Alex can I borrow your whip again?

Not yet Shaggy. Clements is still in.
True, I have 2 expert/expert batsmen at the crease now... Not no depth left in my batting after it except for Phillips, my keeper who rarely scores well, and Lidgerwood who sometimes scores a 50. Not enough batting to get the 320 total.

21.5 W Taufel to Montgomery : A short rising delivery pitched on the middle and off stump line and angling across. Montgomery goes for the pull and is beaten for pace.

So called Spin speciallist......
26.5 W Gorman to Beveridge : [stumped] Oh, what's this? Out! Stumped I think... yes, a pretty innocuous ball from Gorman just had Beveridge drawn a bit too far forward and his foot slipped out of the crease.
R. Beveridge st E. Cain b. S. Gorman 34 (51b 2x4 0x6) SR:66.67
And that is why I love Ethan Cain ;D

I mean WTH!!!!! Not a single Fricken wicket. It that too much to ask? ::) ::) >:(.
29.2 W Deware to Sreedevan : That one might have just gone over the stumps, but the umpire gives it. Sreedevan should work on trying to hit the ball with his bat, not his pad.
A. Sreedevan lbw b. H. Deware 25 (46b 1x4 0x6) SR:54.35
Game over.
34.3 W Sreedhar to Duncan : A bit of an argument in the commentary box about whether that was the slider or the zooter, but it's all academic as it hit Duncan on the back leg below the knee-roll.
A. Duncan lbw b. K. Sreedhar 121 (118b 10x4 3x6) SR:102.54

It's already over. It's only if I can grab another wicket or two before I go down.
34.5 . Mabothe to Crawford : [dropped] Crawford hits a leading edge and there is confusion on the field as Joubert and Mabothe both shout "MINE". The players collide and the ball spills from Joubert's hands, with Crawford looking on with amusement.

41.2 1 W de Smeth to Beattie : A huge mix up there and McLaughlin is well short of his ground.
G. McLaughlin run out (K. Selth) 0 (0b 0x4 0x6) SR:
40.6 W Bol to Furlonge : [catch] No ground is too big for Furlonge! Except maybe this one. Good catch by Sreedhar at deep mid-wicket.

And BOOMZ and I play for supremecy next week. The Killer Bees explode! ;D
I have HP next week. Easy win. :P
Bring it BP :P
I have the battle for last place :P I should beat Q hopefully on a Flat pitch again........
Look at the Stats Centre. Gecko is up there for most of them. ;D
Why do I have to be the top Moose Chasers team?
Hey, I won! Woo!
Duncan just saved his career also ;D

We are playing on a Slow pitch next week in Sunny conditions. Spinners and Medium pacers do well. I will be playing 4 bowlers with either of those bowling types ;).
Hey HP.....
Remember two seasons ago when we planned to organise a big rivalry game together?
We did. The suspense is killing everybody else now ;).
How about we just count today's game then? :P ;D
You would like that wouldn't you -_-.
I forgot to change tactics ;). Woke up too late and got on at like 10:45 just to have the side locked in ::).

Why thankyou ;D
Shaggy, I think my outs/outs rfs and exp/exp wristy will enjoy the crumbling conditions. If need be I could play Jackson over Sodumo as well, then my batting would be very deep :)
Won't be a walk in a park next round Shaggy ;).
Although My match shoudl be :P.
Alex, I think my Expert/expert and Expert/Outstanding Finger spinners along with my Expert/Expert WS will all enjoy the conditions. If need be I could go for another spinner and play either my Accomplished/Expert WS or Accom/Accom FS.
These conditions best suit me I believe Alex, as Dry/Crumbling are my specialty.
Was a good match today Daz closer than it looked ;) your batsmen failed and my bowlers fired that was the difference :P Will be close match against BP next week :D

If I win I could potentially be 2nd on the ladder ;)
Well I own you both with my Outs/Outs finger spinner Hof and Outs/Outs wristy! (ps yes I know Shaggy, Chris owns us all ::))
Don't fkn remind him R&B. He has too big a head as it is right now... -_____-
lol
Who is your wristy? Outs/Outs is a gun. :o
Bhonganitha Chiba, check my squad ;)
On fielding training now.
Thats one sexy barbie. Nice batting too and summary for all rounder. Not cheap though. :x
Yep he bats at 8, helping out my middle order ratings, and pushing Smith with reasonable bat summary to the tail, helping that.
He was at 60k with a minute to go, then me and a guy had a short biding war until he jumped the price to 130k so I knew It was his last bid so I went one more ;)
I picked up my exp/exp 29yo WS for 20k while I develop Baba Udana who is Acc/Exp at 21 I think.
haha yeah thats right roo boys you better believe it too hahahahaha nah kidding your better than me but this season will be really hard for me because of my wages being so high i should have moved to scotland as well
Yeah my wages are quite high too, so I think I will be selling Smith during the week :'(
Got down my Wages from 100k to hopefully at least 90k.
9.5k roughly going next few minutes. Maybe another 3k depending if another player of mine gets a bid. So hopefully can handle the wages and academy investment.
Smith is 9.6k by himself ;D
Make that over 12k Cut. van der Hoeven has been bid on. Hopefully he goes to a good home :D.
HP I will also have 4 bowlers who are either medium or spinners. Mine aren't that good, but still. :P
You already know Flanagan and Sreed. Other two will be Bol and Kamb. Goss will be taking a little break though (FM) as these 2 are fighting over the remaining Bowling spot in my team :P.
I will have Hogan (F), who took 4 wickets today against Shaggy, Hussey (AR/M) who is a new recruit, Shachi (M) not sure what he can do, Deware (FS) He is ok, hasn't proved much yet. My last bowler will be me (WS) who also took 4 wickets today against Shaggy.
You wanna talk about cheap wristies, try 37k for a 23 year old exp/exp wristy Shaggy';)
Who is replacing smith though R&B?
I dunno, at the moment Worthington is sitting on the sidelines so probably him, unless I can get a good FM AR that's got better bowling than him...
Oh OK...
Worthingtonwillbe happy to be back I'm sure,a step dow though. :(
Yeah Worthington is still decent, but yeah anything is a downgrade on Smith :-\
I could buy 40 credits (Only $5) and name Thomas Ducker (outs/outs 22 y.o bat) Willow Shagmeister ;D
Lol ;D
I sent it in. Now the long wait until the rejection/acception.
It will be accepted ::) Hopefully :x
Alright, let's take a look at this week's matches:
Shaggy vs Alex- Crumbling
Can Rimmington shine for Alex on the crumbling, or will the day be dominated by Lidgerwood and Hart? (I'm assuming Hart is a bowler too? Baba isn't playing is he?)
BratPack vs BOOMZ- Slow
With both teams sitting 1st and 3rd with two wins, this game may just shape the whole league. Must win game for both if they wish to maintain their spot in the top 3.
Master Q vs Fletch- Flat
These two teams are both 0-2 but this is the chance for one of them to take the opportunity to turn that all around.
Hellopplz vs MajorLazer- Slow
This game is getting talked up a lot by ML, can his boys perform as well as he says they will? Only time will tell...
DazBurg vs roo boys- Flat
In a shock upset last time these two teams met, DazBurg's Greatness clinched the victory in a nail biting finish, so they have to go in favourites for today's game.
nice 8)
im so bored, im not playing today :'(
Haha shattered. We need to make sure you change the title to Matchday 3 though BB ;)
