got what should be a relatively easy game away to Rhobabians CC- weakish team with PFL problems. am hoping to bowl first, and am putting out a mixed team (resting the likes of Horsfield, J-Mac and Ahmed).

also picked up a resp spinner yesterday for cover and hopeful skill-trading, his wage is 1050 and there's nothing much in the way of secondaries, so should be close to prof.
 
Have an important game today, playing one of the sides who have similar ability to me. Need to get a win and rack up some points after getting two spankings in the first three games.
 
At home to some real rubbish, Brinky is the only regular 1st teamer playing, altough Charl and Andyraj are pushing for 1st team spots.

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

Mrs BB is at home to Sky Blues today, and with everyone bar York (Energetic) at Sublime, she's putting out a full-strength side.
 
away to Thornton CC. I;m top, having won all my games. Everyone else has drawn their games, apart from losing to me. Thornton have got one maybe two decent players. Should be an easy one. I';ve rested a few players.
 
Toughie but have to rest Richie as need him fit for Friday. Saj plays as a batsman only.
 
Everyone arrived early today!

19/02/2008 Played a match and received £127,467 in gate receipts.
 
Raven, Tapp, Browne and Jackman dont play. They have a couple of very good 60-80K players but the rest is 20k and below. However, they do have the biggest squad ever, so not sure how many of their good players they will play ...

BATTY SHRIMPERS v krackens

We can tell you that BATTY SHRIMPERS 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 sunny day.

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

DIBS DIPPERS v Sky Blues

We can tell you that DIBS DIPPERS won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking quite cracked! A field day for the seam bowlers I would reckon on this sunny day.
 
Suthers strikes early, didn't like getting hit for 4 from his first ball. Cooper earns £35k pw so would be nice to remove him.

Holme* 0 (4 balls)

An early wicket, but I'm in the process of changing my pitch to Cracked, and it's ended up H+F for this game, so will be a bit more difficult to bowl them out.

Scarlett 0 (0 balls)

Last Wicket: Unsworth c. Askew b. Cook 0 (FOW: 37/3)

15.6 W Cook to Unsworth
Rank bad ball down leg side, but Askew has taken a blinder! Unbelievably athletic keeping has not only saved four runs, it's also dismissed Unsworth!
15.5 W Cook to Cooper
A flashing blade and straight into Askew's gloves. That was a wild stroke by Cooper.
