End of Over 79 (1 runs). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 280-3, runrate=3.54
Hone 12-2-45-0
Middleton* 54 (78 balls)
Blake 0 (5 balls)

Last Wicket: Raziuddin lbw b. Blezard 17 (FOW: 279/3)

Could do with Middleton bashing a quick 50 and getting out.

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

Bowling change brings the break-through for Mrs BB

End of Over 80 (4 runs). Aylesbury: 228-4, runrate=2.85
Bradley 10-1-43-1
Batt* 1 (3 balls)
Gillespie 70 (131 balls)

Last Wicket: Tselane c. Stride b. Bradley 82 (FOW: 227/4)

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Askew listens to his manager! Cunningham won't play Friday or Sunday anyway so that works for me. Hopefully Cooky can up the pace again.

End of Over 73 (Maiden). ShrimperZone CC: 322-1, runrate=4.41
Malloy 10-1-36-1
Cunningham* 177 (232 balls)
Cook 0 (1 balls)

Last Wicket: Askew c. Rosenior b. Malloy 126 (FOW: 322/1)

What's your declaration figure ?

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

oh s***. 33-3

 

[The General]

BB - Mrs BB side certainly are a tough nut to crack. Tougher than the team she played last week. I can imagine her oppo getting around 400 this week, anything less than that she has done well. It seems alot of teams in our league like playing on batting friendly pitches which could see alot of games in the league end in draws as each team will bat for about 120 overs and its going to be tough to get a result after that! Least i got 10 wickets today even though they are probably a better side on paper but the oppo have had a tough run of games and the majority of their best players are struggling with PFL!

Looking at the way her game has gone, I would guess that most of her oppo's batting is set Defensive or V. Defensive. One of the guys who held you up last week isn't playing, but even then, she doesn't really have the bowling apart from Mohammed to blast through sides. That could change as her all-rounder is nearing Sublime PFL, has Superb Stamina, and is Destructive mentality, so that will give her some more options. She's also Ok at her place because she plays on Cracked, to maximise Mohammeds bowling. I think she'll be quite pleased not to get relegated, but it's going to depend on her main 3 or 4 players doing the business pretty much every week.

What's your declaration figure ?

500, fancied batting for a while in an FC game for once! To be honest, given that I only have 5 decent batsmen on show I didn't expect to get there but Ritchie is having a stormer.

End of Over 89 (2 runs, 1lb). ShrimperZone CC: 400-1, runrate=4.49
Southgate 18-2-55-0
Cook* 56 (72 balls)

[blues_r_best]

I know my team is historically a bit toothless in attack but this is ridiculous

End of Over 90 (2 runs). Royal Bruisers: 336-1, runrate=3.73
Boateng 13-4-34-0
Powell* 119 (235 balls)
Nash 161 (256 balls)

successive 100's for Horsey....

[The General]

95-4 now....

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

Seen off their openers, but lost 3 wickets in doing so. Now looking to cash in on the change bowlers and have advanced to 86-3, 24 runs behind.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

End of Over 92 (7 runs). BATTY SHRIMPERS: 347-3, runrate=3.77

Blake* 35 (46 balls)
Middleton 85 (116 balls)

Last Wicket: Raziuddin lbw b. Blezard 17 (FOW: 279/3)

Going to get more than 10 overs at them at this rate. Although I wonder if Prasad will bat on and let Middleton get his ton ??

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

End of Over 93 (Maiden). Aylesbury: 261-4, runrate=2.81
Higgs 12-3-38-0

Last Wicket: Tselane c. Stride b. Bradley 82 (FOW: 227/4)

 

[MrB]

Ritchie goes after a great knock. Saj has managed 43 runs from 3 innings so a quick unbeaten 50 would help his average along!

End of Over 93 (3 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 418-2, runrate=4.49
Southgate 20-2-62-1
Cook* 66 (83 balls)
Sajjad 0 (0 balls)

[The General]

110-4. Just Phillips to come with Jackman at 8 who did manage his highest ever score last Thursday when he managed 30 odd not out. Im sure he wont re-discover his batting form when i need it later on this evening!

Come on Cold Rod. If one of these goes we'll havea very slow run to the declaration.

Is he set to the same orders as his mentality? That's what I tried with Evelyn and he's responded with successive hundreds.

Hmmm, attacking in FC? Sounds a bit crrrrazy but maybe I'll give it a go!
