FC Week 13

Couldn't help noticing my oppositions batsman's rather interesting FC average:

Batting M I R n.o. Ave SR HS C st 50s 100s
Season 2 1 490 0 490.00 100.41 490 2 0 0 1
Career 5 5 492 1 123.00 91.45 490 4 0 0 1

490 runs in one innings and 2 in the other four. Impressive! He's 0 not out so I'll be hoping not to add much to that tally.
 
Polished off the last 4 wickets with no runs added this morning. Sadly this is a good indication of what the conditions are going to be like today. 3rd place won today, if we can get full batting points and get a draw we'll be top by 3. Means that we'll need at least 3 batting points to get top spot (as long as we avoid defeat!). Roll on 15-3....

End of Over 116 (Maiden). Four Oaks Saints CC: 427-10, runrate=3.68
Cook 26-7-61-5
 
sunny weather today, and Scholes has his best flat-track bully face on.

End of Over 18 (7 runs). Pettefershire CCC: 142-0, runrate=7.89
Trail by 177 runs. (arsenal14 cc 319-10)
Murtagh 1-0-7-0
Scholes* 87 (68 balls)
Latham 52 (43 balls)
 
End of Over 2 (Maiden). Barnby in the Willows CC: 0-2, runrate=0.00
Trail by 805 runs. (Napster's XI 805-4 dec)
Moore 1-1-0-1
Hayfield* 0 (5 balls)
Brownfield 0 (2 balls)

Last Wicket: Eade b. Moore 0 (FOW: 0/2)
 
End of Over 46 (Maiden). General Stars: 103-4, runrate=2.24
Trail by 259 runs. (1 1=6 362-3 dec)
Senior 14-3-22-3
Tapp* 63 (151 balls)
Raven 4 (21 balls)

Last Wicket: Bayliss c. Tonderai b. Senior 5 (FOW: 95/4)

Lost 4 quick wickets but hopefully these 2 and Titters can drag it out! Obviously playing for the draw!

:)
 
Every over blocked and odd run added is valuable here, these two are the weakest of my top 9 (strong and proficient) but are seeing off a pair of remarkable bowlers. They have better bowling to come but happy at the moment.

End of Over 9 (Maiden). ShrimperZone CC: 16-0, runrate=1.78
Trail by 411 runs. (Four Oaks Saints CC 427-10)

Cronin* 61 (100 balls)
Daniel 22 (33 balls)

Last Wicket: Swayne c. Purches b. Porter 44 (FOW: 269/4)

Moving towards declaration target.
 
End of Over 14 (1 runs). Barnby in the Willows CC: 17-4, runrate=1.21

Titterton* 12 (19 balls)
Tapp 74 (181 balls)

Last Wicket: Raven lbw b. Spiers 9 (FOW: 110/5)

Raven didn't last long !!
 
Hmmm, cracked pitch king Askw departs early which is worrying as I hoped he'd stick around for his usual 40 odd. Wheat is proving a bargain at £300k, particularly given his first week concentration pop.

End of Over 18 (Maiden). ShrimperZone CC: 43-2, runrate=2.39
Trail by 384 runs. (Four Oaks Saints CC 427-10)
Thomas 9-4-27-1

Last Wicket: Askew c. Parkin b. Thomas 8 (FOW: 43/2)
 
slowing up here, could do with losing a wicket to get Big Ben in

End of Over 38 (3 runs). Pettefershire CCC: 218-0, runrate=5.74
Trail by 101 runs. (arsenal14 cc 319-10)

I've lost.

The players are off the field for lunch.


End of Over 29 (Maiden). Barnby in the Willows CC: 38-10, runrate=1.31
Trail by 767 runs. (Napster's XI 805-4 dec)
Littler 4-1-3-3
Chadwick* 0 (5 balls)

28.1 W Littler to Midworth
Midworth gives himself some room to try to play a fine late cut, but he only succeeds in steering a simple catch into the safe gloves of Barness.
 
2.1 W Nguyen-lee to Mohan
You won't see an easier catch than that, Sutherland didn't have to move in the end.

End of Over 2 (Maiden). Barnby in the Willows CC: 0-2, runrate=0.00 (1st Inn: 38-10)
Trail by 767 runs. (Napster's XI 805-4 dec)
Moore 1-1-0-2
Mohan* 0 (6 balls)
Brownfield 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Hayfield c. Barness b. Moore 0 (FOW: 0/2)


1.6 W Moore to Hayfield
A thin nick and taken behind by Barness. There was no need for Hayfield to go chasing that!
1.5 W Moore to Eade
Snick... and gone! Smart catch by Barness, diving away to his left.
 
End of Over 74 (Maiden). General Stars: 172-5, runrate=2.32
Trail by 190 runs. (1 1=6 362-3 dec)

Trail by 24 runs. (arsenal14 cc 319-10)
Mckenzie 13-0-85-0
Scholes* 163 (181 balls)

The players are off the field for the change of innings.


End of Over 109 (6 runs, 4lb). Beyond Heresy: 402-6, runrate=3.69

annoying

End of Over 22 (3 runs). Barnby in the Willows CC: 38-3, runrate=1.73 (1st Inn: 38-10)

Whittingham 2-0-4-0
Timothea* 14 (59 balls)

Great stuff from these 2!

End of Over 97 (1 runs). General Stars: 204-5, runrate=2.10
Trail by 158 runs. (1 1=6 362-3 dec)
Spiers 21-5-33-1
Titterton* 48 (134 balls)
Tapp 107 (320 balls)

Last Wicket: Raven lbw b. Spiers 9 (FOW: 110/5)

Raven, Tapp and Titterton wont be bowling in their 2nd innings, mainly to save on too much of a PFL hit! That leaves just Akram, Khoto, Hitchman and Thompson bowling!

Plummer's introduction to the middle order has provided some resistance. We may yet have a chance to avoid the follow on.

End of Over 59 (1 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 152-4, runrate=2.58
Trail by 275 runs. (Four Oaks Saints CC 427-10)
Thomas 14-5-33-1
Plummer* 40 (95 balls)
Curtis 47 (97 balls)

Last Wicket: Cunningham lbw b. Carrick 13 (FOW: 68/4)

I think we'll be a different team next season with him available every week. Maybe III in both formats won't be so bad anyway....
