    E. Walmsley 4-0-37-3, S. Khanyeza 3 (2b), L. Viv 1 (1b)
    End of over 19 (7 runs) - RTSpringbok2(188-4). 11 runs required from 1 overs. RR 9.89 RRR 11.00

    Ohgodohgodohgod. Entire season comes down to this over. Walmsley's a god for getting us this far tbh, 2 wickets last over puts me into the middle order.

    Anything to force fielding and seam. So Uneven probably unless you've got a lot of mediums.

    Won SOD 1.1

    Needed to beat a 225k team and have 1st lose to 7th

    Both happened. Ended up finishing first on 9-5 while 8th was 5-9

    Close league

    Pretty stoked

    Weldone mate you're gonna need to get up to 250k by the end of the season to win our bet

    Any chance?

    Grats man, you reckon you'll win both div I's next season?

    Won quite comfortably. That means I'm in division 2 next season. Looking forward to a bit more money, although the wage update will probably kill me.

    I'm already probably very close to the 2nd best among cricsimmers. (Besides recording one of the most memorable meteoric rises to div 2 in the modern history of FTP with 4 straight SOD promotions and 4 straight T20 promotions).

    Yeah, I have a decent chance of overtaking you by the next season-end. In case it doesn't happen by then, it'll happen sometime very soon after that.

    If you took your best player and had 11 of him (obv similarly skilled bat/bowls etc) you'd not rate close to me, ergo you're going to need to buy a best xi to beat me. And I doubt you have the cash.

    The last step is really the hardest - and you've got 15 weeks to do it or else you lose the bet.

    Of course you'll beat me in 2 seasons time. Ill have sold up and rebuilt by then.

    And then you'll never again overtake me...

  15. Skippos SM Morgan

    You're changing your words now. You've always claimed to 'be better than me by the end of season 23' - and now it's 'when you rebuild you'll never be better than me'

    I think you're just trying to find an excuse/scapegoat for when you do lose the bet.

  16. weldone RM Chowdhuri

    Yes. :p

    To be honest, I have changed my strategy. I'm working on a sustainable strategy now. If I want to have a better ranking than you by the end of season 23, the first thing to do would be to sell my 2 super-talented youths Steven Banda and Ian Hyde.

    Edit: Congratulations on winning div 1 btw. :)

    Can't see that happening.


    Even if you somehow made it to Div 1 you'd get slaughtered unless you know most of the teams or were related to them and it was some kind of cheating thing.


    How much money you have?


    And as for the 2nd best - I know it's not me - but what is your record against me?
