FC - Match 6

[MrB]

Reverse fixtures from last week, hopefully we can repeat last weeks surprising win. Hard & Fast pitch (do people still use them?) but cloudy first day and we've made a couple of early breakthroughs.

Welcome to icedgod CG for the match between icedgod and ShrimperZone CC.

We can tell you that ShrimperZone CC won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a cracker! Hard and fast - should be a run-fest out there on this partially cloudy and humid day.

End of Over 17 (2 runs). icedgod: 49-2, runrate=2.88
Overs left today: 93
Marriott 2-0-3-1
Lampard* 21 (54 balls)
Alvi 2 (7 balls)

Last Wicket: Hickes st. Lamey b. Marriott 6 (FOW: 41/2)

 

[Grayson]

My opposition, Yamas, appear to have thrown the game. I'm batting until 360, but don't think I have follow on set, so won't finish today.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

My opposition, Yamas, appear to have thrown the game. I'm batting until 360, but don't think I have follow on set, so won't finish today.

Thought I recognised the team name, he sold a lot of his players yesterday. My mate at work picked up one of his double Elite batters for 3.5m

Anyway, we're struggling a bit as Polly's gone early, and we don't have any other batting until we get to Lindop and Burns at 7+8.

[MrB]

Interesting about Yamas, they're in my OD league. They've actually sold their entire team, wonder if they're giving up? He'd told me he could no longer afford the wages and would have to do some 'trimming' but not this much. Sadly I played them a couple of weeks ago!!

Looks like some people picked up some bargains. Now I'm back in the market for a bowler the list has dried up again!

 

[Grayson]

A team in my OD league is giving up, sold a few on Sunday. I missed them. I missed Yamas' firesale too. Annoying cos I have a spare 3.5m or so that I could've used.

All done, hopefully we can bat safely and take advantage of the sunny conditions tomorrow. Batsmen are set attacking to try and give us time to bowl them out again, hope it doesn't backfire.

Elvyn Moor vs Southchurch Village CC

A flat pitch in the sun it wasn't looking too good at 177-2 but once one wicket fell they tumbled quickly.

End of Over 46 (9 runs). Southchurch Village CC: 227-2, runrate=4.93
Lead by 21 runs. (Elvyn Moor 206-10)
Overs left today: 0

With the next threat under Tioman Islanders going bot this week and having their squad reset it's a two-horse race between us and Tioman. We meet in the last game of the season and it is our league to lose now.

 

[MrB]

Lost Sini after a slothful 2 from 23 balls but after that Richie and Lamo took control at finished the day and 90-1. Will look to bat as long as possible in the sun tomorrow.

 

[MrB]

Cruising along here.

End of Over 45 (5 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 183-1, runrate=4.07

The players are off the field for lunch.

Last Wicket: Sinethemba c. Alvi b. Easton 2 (FOW: 11/1)

 

[The General]

Nice innings and 270 runs win after bowling them out much quicker and for less runs this time around.

 

[MrB]

Richie got out and Sandy quickly followed but Graham is getting a rare chance to test his batting skills. Think I set declaration at 450 so wil have plenty of overs to bowl them out again.
