BB ... every player is at very defensive. Im still shocked i got bowled out for 68 with the likes of Lamb, Bayliss, Browne & Stanton playing. None are anything special, but they are all quite solid players against average bowling attacks. Just trying to make it last to Day 3 tbh!

Well you've seen off Mohammed this morning, so there's now a fair chance it will go the distance.

Yesterday's innings was just one of those things, you lost a couple of your better bats to Mohammed and Bradley, and then the rest just got picked off. If you get 150 in front, I would guess Mrs BB would be a tad nervous.
 
We're ahead! Hopefully we can get to 280 at least.

Second hundred partnership and Cold Rod gets his personal ton. Quite why their captain has let Garrity take over 1/3 of the overs god only knows!

Full batting points would be lovely as the top team is on their way to full points as we speak. Still a long way off though.
 
Got him all out for 27 he has followed on and he is currently 16-0 off 5 chasing 466.

Just had a look how the others in my league are doing and blue dragons who I lost to by 72 runs last week was 1008-4 !!!!
 
All out 405.

My declaration target was 430, so not too far off that. The trouble is its taken me 4 sessions to score those runs and I've only 5 sessions to bowl him out twice.
 
and that my friends is karnechewa!!

End of Over 31 (1 runs). barton rovers: 73-10, runrate=2.35

Mclean* 4 (4 balls)



Great bowling from my boys... not expecting it to be so easy for there follow on, unless i can get there 200+ aveage boy out for a lucky duck again!

Still, dont mind if it carries into tomorrow a tad (altho i'll be careful what i wish for) as the £90k will come in handy!
 
35 runs from 3 overs, they want those full batting points! Garrity still bowling which is nice!

End of Over 58 (14 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 319-5, runrate=5.50

Seems my oppo are gunning for the cup, I did think my game was far too easy, but with a little research I have noticed that he has left out his best players

BTR

Oh and have taken your advice BB and not set a declaration today, then tonight I will take my total and +1 for my declaration. That will get me the days extra dosh.

Liddel 140 (136 balls)
 
I've made a MrB type ****-up with my W/K. As Evelyn is rested, I thought I had set Raz to keep, Mediocre WK / Strong Conc, but oh no, I've managed to select Garvey, Worthless WK / Respectable Conc.

They finally change bowler and Sheppard immediately falls but it's his highest score in any form of cricket:

End of Over 60 (1 runs). ShrimperZone CC: 323-6, runrate=5.38
