B, what sort of level is Henderson then?

Today's opposition have two Indian internationals, but I'm hoping they played midweek and are either knackered or rested. Fredericks is also very handy, with a battrick rating of around 90,000. I forget what order the higher levels go in, but he looked damn useful.
 
I think he's remarkable which outweighs any of my batsmen. Career strike rate of 21.58 tells a story, he took 7 of my guys last time.

He only has 3 overs left now:

End of Over 13: 36-3, runrate=2.77
Henderson 7-0-21-3
Botham* 20 (41 balls)
Curtis 10 (15 balls)

I tend to try and play around the opposition star bowler. If he opens, I'd set my openers more defensively, maybe promote a nigh****chman type player with poor stamina but decent experience to block at 3 and maybe move one of my more destructive batsmen down the order and set my middle order to very attacking to capitalise once he's bowled out.

If he's a spinner who comes on first change, I'd look to attack the seamers by setting my openers to very attacking and trying to get to 70-0 before the spinner comes on.

With bowling, I tend to vary my bowling orders more to do with the pitch/weather than the opposition.
 
Ah, it's showing as Uneven.

Anyway,

My oppo are 2nd in the league and I decided to throw this game and go TIE and save myself for a more winnable game next week. I think he may have GFI judging by the start he made.

Pegging them back a bit now though.

Strange....

Welcome to Garon Park for the match between ShrimperZone CC and Goodison.

We can tell you that Goodison 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 cloud day.

Anyway, recovery ahoy, Henderson won't return till the last few so fingers crossed we can get somewhere near to 200:

End of Over 25: 84-3, runrate=3.36
Malik 6-0-20-0
Botham* 41 (85 balls)
Curtis 35 (44 balls)

Last Wicket: Sajjad c. Malik b. Henderson 4 (FOW: 14/3)
 
Great line!

27.3 6 Irving to Curtis
Curtis hits that straight out of the ground and through the pub window. They'll have to wipe the beer off the ball before resuming play!
