BT - FC Match 11

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Playing my reserves again, should be an easy victory

krackens v BATTY SHRIMPERS

We can tell you that krackens won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a cracker! Hard and fast - should be a run-fest out there on this sunny day.

End of Over 11 (Maiden). krackens: 8-1, runrate=0.73
Singh lali 6-4-2-1
Philpott* 1 (32 balls)
Johnson 3 (13 balls)

Last Wicket: Trench b. Singh lali 2 (FOW: 3/1)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mrs BB up against Sky Blues today, so everyone is rested. Could be some serious leather chasing here.

Sky Blues v DIBS DIPPERS

We can tell you that Sky Blues won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking like a road. As flat as a pancake. No help for the bowlers on this sunny day.

End of Over 11 (2 runs, 1lb). Sky Blues: 52-0, runrate=4.73
Karel 6-0-23-0
Lawrence* 15 (20 balls)
Fiddes 36 (46 balls)

My opposition threw the game, if goes to day two I'll be lucky

End of Over 12 (2 runs). Southend United: 93-0, runrate=7.75
Rennie 6-0-37-0
Hoult* 44 (38 balls)
Bartlett 49 (34 balls)

 

[The General]

End of Over 14 (Maiden). Tommy_B's Allstar XI: 43-5, runrate=3.07
Guy 7-1-26-3
Swanton* 16 (14 balls)
Gamble 11 (25 balls)

Great start for my boys. Jackman got the other 2. However ...

These 2 in now are seriously useful players. Swanton probably looks better than he is and is an allrounder but Gamble is very tasty. At 20yo, he is nearly a 6 figure BTR player and is averaging 239 in the OD's and 429 in the FC format! But he is at invig. These 2 will put on a stand as Guy and Jackman are departing but Tapp and Titterton are bowling small spells at 4 & 6.

You'll go up to 3rd now Kev, as Mrs BB has Sky Blues. Thankfully for her, that's all the top teams played twice then, and she can get back to some proper games.

35.6 . Jackman to France
Jackman bowls one heading towards middle & off, but the batsman is well forward in defence and the man at point picks up the ball.
35.5 . Jackman to France
Sound defensive technique from France there, getting well forward and deflecting the ball to the on side.
35.4 . Jackman to France
Big inswinging yorker, well dug out by France who lives to fight another day.
35.3 . Jackman to France
Well wide of off, lift, no shot offered by the batsman.
35.2 W Jackman to Gamble
The batsman is struck on the back foot right in front of middle stump. Plumb LBW.
35.1 1 Jackman to Swanton
Worked around to square leg, Browne running in from the boundary to field.

Great stuff after lunch! Guy has taken France since then too! :)

[The General]

BB, just looked at the Sky Blues team and had Mrs BB played a couple of her better bowlers she probably would have won the game. He said at the start of the season he wasn't looking to camp in the league but i have a feeling that the fecker will be attempting to do that!

Kev

 

[loz]

slowing down, but that's not a huge concern as i want 3 days receipts. good to see 2 centuries in there.

I think she told him that she was playing a very weak side, so that's why his team isn't as strong as it could be. The real test of whether he's camping will be when he plays 1 1=6.

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Bot-bashing for me today. Trying to maximise my gate receipts and preserve as much fitness as possible.

They have both played each other twice already i think.
