Subject: Battrick

Should do, hope it will be fun :)

Rule number 1 of web development : Nothing ever works first time - It's why the hourly consultancy rate was invented.

I've only been playing battrick all these years to see how the FC goes.

Finally the game emerges from beta!

Maybe if you're not very good at it...

Maybe my firm employs consultants...

A close match for a change. My bowlers took a mild pasting

End of Over 20: 204-2, runrate=10.20

But my batsmen might well be able to get the target

I've had a similar problem today.

End of Over 20: 180-3, runrate=9.00

My best bowler took no wickets for 42. Looks like playing normal for the first 2 matches might do for me.

End of Over 20: 185-8, runrate=9.25
Faulkner 4-0-31-2
Bullock* 41 (29 balls)
Convey 0 (0 balls)

Happy with the total, could have been more though, barring a hat-trick from one of their bowlers.

pah!

And that's the end of the match. Bob's Buffoons won by 9 runs.
Bob's Buffoons 204-2
Leeds Apathetical 195-7

mwa ha ha ha. Skittled em out with a ball to spare to win by 50 odd runs. Mind you they were series V, and I've just been relegated from III...

Edit : Ooops ! That was yesterdays game ! Won today too, with 11 balls left by 8 wickets. Hoorah !

I didn't play yesterday or today. Is it because I am rubbish?

Yes. It is.

So when are the next fixtures out? My blokes have nothing to do other than eat and drink and womanise.

Blimey, just like real cricket!

Aaaaages.

So if you are playing more matches because you are less rubbish, do you get more training?

same amount i think. nets aren't match specific.
