FC - Week 13

The General

The Mouse (*)
At home against a useful mob! LOST a fairly important toss as weather isn't good for batting whereas it will be tomorrow so going to have to win this the hard way!

End of Over 29 (5 runs). General Stars: 88-1, runrate=3.03
Overs left today: 81
Windsor 2-0-14-0
Browne* 22 (25 balls)
Waterhouse 50 (84 balls)

Last Wicket: Lamb c. Thandiwe b. Nevins 14 (FOW: 37/1)
 
The players are off the field for lunch.

End of Over 4 (9 runs). Southend United: 26-0, runrate=6.50

Overs left today: 75
Ahmed 2-0-14-0
Artell* 8 (11 balls)
Hoult 18 (13 balls)
 
Could clinch promotion this week, as we lead the division by 21 points. At home to a semi-bot, so we're going to win comfortably.

BATTY SHRIMPERS v Yorkshire Forever!

We can tell you that BATTY SHRIMPERS won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking quite cracked! A field day for the seam bowlers I would reckon on this partially cloudy day.

End of Over 2 (2 runs). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 12-0, runrate=6.00
Trail by 64 runs. (Yorkshire Forever! 76-10)
Overs left today: 55
Le roux 1-0-2-0
Brush* 5 (5 balls)
Ricketts 4 (8 balls)

Also in associated news, I've finally had enough of Schoeman's under-performance, and he's back on the market, this time for £0 (although we've got a £2m bid already). The final straw was today as he failed to take a wicket in 12 overs against a collection of Respectable on Fresh PFL :haedbang:

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

Mrs BB playing top-of the table. She needs to win one of her last 2, but next week she has the bottom side, so should be OK.

Macacotopia County v DIBS DIPPERS

We can tell you that DIBS DIPPERS won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a bit on the dry side. A fair bit of help for the spinners I think on this sunny day.

End of Over 58 (5 runs, 1b). DIBS DIPPERS: 243-1, runrate=4.19
Overs left today: 52
Organ 13-2-46-0

With only pride to play for away to 3rd place with no need to conserve PFL, I've gone for 7 batsmen ( a couple of them not overly talented) and 2 all rounders today. I've always played 5 bowlers as that's where my strength is. By the time I return to this level I'll probably be strong enough for 4 bowlers in most games.

Pleased to make 363 for 9. They are around 30 without loss if I can get them to around 200 for 3 I should be able to run through them and have a first innings lead.
 
Can we win?

End of Over 1 (Maiden). Napster's XI: 0-0, runrate=0.00 (1st Inn: 34-10)
Trail by 313 runs. (swishswoshswash 243-10 & 104-1 dec)

Struggling to bowl them out, although we will eventually.
