End of Over 14: 89-3, runrate=6.36, reqrunrate=6.39 (318-4)
Everett 2-0-13-0
Elson* 37 (36 balls)
Appleby 32 (33 balls)

Just on the runrate. Anything could happen if these two stay in.

You got much batting to come?

I've got mediocre batters down to 7 but after that the best is woeful (and they're all set to attacking after 7).

End of Over 20: 99-3, runrate=4.95, reqrunrate=4.47 (232-10)
Mainwaring 5-0-23-0
Curtis* 39 (29 balls)
Wilson 8 (24 balls)

52 off 47 balls for one of my batsmen now. Going well.

Not going well now. Only 5 runs from the last 3 overs.

Lamacq got 7 wickets for 9 runs. Hmm. maybe I should have taken It Easy...

Elson falls for 76 :( Appleby is scoring too slowly so Primus will have to do something.

My defeat and relegation now seem somewhat inevitable, i need a miracle, or a team who doesn't want to promote


End of Over 34: 157-6, runrate=4.62, reqrunrate=7.87 (282-5)

End of Over 41: 268-5, runrate=6.54, reqrunrate=5.67 (318-4)

Get in. I come back from having my hair done and I'm in a great position. Down to my last 2 recognised batsmen though so if one goes out I'm screwed.

And I'm down to my crap batsmen now. I regret putting them all to attacking.

And that's the end of the match. And they shall know us by the trail of dead C.C. won by 84 runs.


Bugger, what a waste of a GFI

My woeful batter just hit 10 off 4 balls leaving me 298-6 needing 21 runs to win in 6 overs.

I thought Fish's figures were bad but this is even worse

And I've won :D After saying how slow Appleby was he got 123 off 134 balls and my attacking woeful batsman reached 18 off 14 :D

I won too, on return from being out. Nothing as manly as "having my hair done" to distract me, though. I was lifting weights instead.
