Fantasy Ashes

[Shrimper]

Anyone know when the scores are done? I reckon i have about 400 odd. The ton's from Katich and Ponting really helped as did Hilfenhaus and Johnson getting a lot of wickets. Collingwood was brilliant as well.

Edit: They're done already, i'm top. :D

Bwahaha! Beating Welham = Primary Target acheived :)

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Is Pubey (or anyone really) going to update this thread i wonder ?? I can't access the site from work and am curious as to how i ended up .. poorly i should think as i have Cook Bopara Swann Broad and Anderson who will all be low scorers i imagine

Swanny is a proud member of Rusty's Reich - hence thirtieth out of thirty-two. Ex-strawberry.

Blimey i'm delightedly shocked with that, Ponting (wrongly IMO) getting MOM obviously helped but even so ...

Who was more deserving than Punter? I don't like him, but he did score a ton fifty...

1 Peter G Winning XI 866

That is some start .. who is this anyway ?? step forward and take a bow sir

I would have plumped for Strauss - great bit of captaincy with the physio running on and the glove replacements - genius.

Collingwood ... Ponting was obviously top scorer but i thought his capaincy could have been sharper when they were trying to take the final wicket, PC did more than any English batsman in forcing the draw, close on 6 hours at the crease yesterday

 

[Napster]

2nd eh? Not a bad start.

 

[EastStandBlue]

Just above Rusty... Courtesy of KP and Bops.

Maybe if he'd stayed there until the end of the innings. A fine knock undoubtedly, but it was down to 10 and 11 to last out the last 13-odd overs.

 

[BLUEBLOOD]

Yeah i spose .. and if they'd taken the final wicket and we'd lost the game then Ponting wins it fair enough

That said i have Ponting in my team and not Collingwood so a top notch decision afterall really ;)

 

[Shrimper]

'tis me. :D

I just went to change my team and gave me Mark Rothmans, needless to say i logged out and back in without touching it.

Btw, i've put my dad's name in instead. Changed it but it's still me. :D

 

[blues_r_best]

When are the teams announced for the second test?

Found it, put Anderson in for Broad, Hilfenhaus in for Watson, and Katich in for Hauritz

 

[Shrimper]

I put Harmison in but he's not in there so i've swapped him with Flintoff and put Hughes in place of Onions.

 

[Pubey]

i put harmison in but forgot to swap him back out!:'(

 

[Shrimper]

I did it just as the test was starting, you can still do it now i think.
