Subject: Battrick

my remarkable/sensational batter is not available either :P

One conc pop today. From my records and the training times posted on the battrick help site, I have a quiet few weeks coming up. :(

1 batting pop to proficient for me.

I really do think I have 4 strong batters ready to pop to superb, plus my alrounder should pop in both batting and bowling very soon

End of Over 5 (4 runs). Pboranjing CC: 35-0, runrate=7.00
Manoshan 1-0-4-0
Crabb* 22 (15 balls)
Walters 13 (15 balls)

More FC today. Seven an over will do, I guess.

Hundred up.

End of Over 13 (9 runs). Pboranjing CC: 103-0, runrate=7.92
Manoshan 5-0-40-0
Crabb* 66 (40 balls)
Walters 36 (38 balls)

Think I set my declaration for 550 today. Might be over in one day if I remembered to change it from 650.

I looked about 20 minutes ago and i was bowling 1st. They were 14-3 after 11 overs :) Should be an easy win today, need to get back on track after an unexpected loss last week. I should wrap the game up in day 2 I guess, set my declaration target at 600.

My opposition are in bat, and 102-3. They usually bat well, but have no bowlers to speak of, so it will probably be a draw or a 3rd day win for one of us. I've rather stupidly picked my default line-up, complete with 2 all-rounders of moderate / fresh fitness. I'm expecting them to be useless.

I'm against 2nd today - hoping to reinforce my lead at the top.

So far they are 92-0, not a good start on a bad batting surface and weather! Could be a challenge

throwing the match against the great unwashed :P

Nearly out :) 34-9

Got my opponents out for 40 something, I am on 240-0 after 33 overs :) I have effectivley already won the game but I set my dec target at 600 so will change it tonight so I can bowl them out early on and only have to play one and a half days :)

they've slowly crept along to 212-2 now, need wickets!

Oh now THIS is annoying.

Beresford* 87 (124 balls)
Swann 5 (56 balls)

Swann is a 14k BT rated bowler, Beresford a 250k BT rated all-rounder (I assume). Swann is doing diddly squat, but enabling Beresford to get the runs he wouldn't have got if the tail had crumbled.

Grrrrrrr.

Sorry to hear about your plight but I am now 443-0 at the sandwich stop and quite happy thanks awfully.

Doesn't it feel a little empty, thrashing bots every week ?

yes. but I have lots of lovely runs! They are my friends now!



actually got three proper shuman beans take over this week, but I think I will search for my kicks next season where I will moan about getting fisted each week whilst you can lord it up thrashing hoi polloi.

fisted, is that like nosed ?
