[The General]

Bit prompt i know but hey ho!

I face the MCC XI at home and will be looking to bowl first, skittle them out cheapily and get the runs quick. Decided i wont TIE as i just want it over asap! They have some decent players, but are severly lacking in fitness!

I will post my thoughts once i receive advice on the other thread :p

Yawn, should be another easy win against a former II side that appears to have given up. Like Kev's opponents they have some decent drained players but that's about it. Resting Richie but playing full bowling strength again, no need to rest them as they don't tend to have to bowl for too long!

We'll be looking to enhance our place at the top of the promotion table while Suthers looks to up his position in the overall Level IV bowling averages. Another 10 wicket match in FC, what a guy! Though Anderson's 14 wickets in a day was also rather impressive for Nick's mob today.

6th v 7th level on points for me - a win would be great but his squad looks stronger. Fitness is an issue for him rather than me, almost all players rested from FC

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Full strength side for me today. I've got about half the side at Energetic, but hoping for a painless victory on a TIE.

 

[MrB]

Can I nominate Kev for the award for worst grammar and spelling in thread headings?

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Definitely. He's 2 for 2 this week !

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Wanted to bowl today, oh well.

Wazzes Wanderers v BATTY SHRIMPERS

We can tell you that Wazzes Wanderers won the toss and elected to field. The pitch is looking a bit on the dry side. A fair bit of help for the spinners I think on this partially cloudy and humid day.

AFC Wombles v DIBS DIPPERS

We can tell you that AFC Wombles won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a touch on the green side. All the seam bowlers have been out there rubbing their hands on this partially cloudy and humid day.

Good start, as I look to get up to 2nd place

A 35 run and counting 10th wicket partnership could be all important here. I need a wicket.
