very nice... boys need to pick things up B. Umesh 6-0-30-0, H. Mullings 63 (74b), S. Botten 45 (60b) End of over 32 (11 runs) - The Slack Caps(157-3). 134 runs required from 18 overs. RR 4.91 RRR 7.44
Iridium XI 141 for 1 (Lindsay 71*, Amin 43, Texel 1-46) beat Screw Hawthorn 140 (Williams 41, van Dalen 6-10, van Zandt 2-20) by 9 wickets Scorecard Code: Screw Hawthorn Iridium XI Batting - Top Order 10,173 11,722 Batting - Middle Order 6,587 9,643 Batting - Tail 4,010 5,657 Bowling - Seam 8,575 (30) 9,451 (40) Bowling - Spin 10,328 (20) 8,923 (10) Fielding/Keeping 9,204 10,243 Overall 153,068 179,889 van Dalen tore through their batting lineup and set up a pretty easy win in the end. Wasn't too sure how strong this team was so went full strength. I'm almost certain he wasn't playing his best XI.
nice Iridium - I'm stuffed... W. Mott 9-2-46-3, A. Nadarajah 4 (6b), G. Fitzsimmons 0 (0b) End of over 37 (1 run) - The Slack Caps(185-7). 106 runs required from 13 overs. RR 5.00 RRR 8.15 Raide - could be interesting... you may have bowlers opening the batting and batters bowling... check your keeper.
@Raide: I'm gonna wait to see how much you rate and then I'll challenge you with my youths and some second XI players.
It's... still... possible... E. Wrigglesworth 9-1-33-3, A. Nadarajah 21 (44b), K. Khan 0 (0b) End of over 47 (3 runs) - The Slack Caps(219-8). 72 runs required from 3 overs. RR 4.66 RRR 24.00 not likely though.
Farrrrk, Dollery got raped. G. Dollery 4-0-23-1, J. Sardesai 11 (19b), P. Nigam 34 (55b) End of over 18 (18 runs) - Bharat(74-1) RR 4.11
McMahon's first over is a good one. W. McMahon 1-0-1-1, P. Nigam 36 (58b), H. Choudhury 0 (0b) End of over 21 (1 run) - Bharat(82-2) RR 3.90 Bowlers going well I think (although it's a sticky pitch, not sure what a good total is)
I think I got lucky - all my bowlers are my reasonable/average guys - opened with my two FM bowlers. 7 out of my top 8 are average/reasonable bats (number 8 is my bowler, so I guess he's technically bit of an allrounder) Wicketkeeper is Barrie Long - who is the best wk I have in my team. So - my team isn't retarded
McMahon is actually a pretty ok starting allrounder I got imo. Average batting and bowling and he has a talent for each (accumulator and skilled bowling)
"W. McMahon is tired." How does this work? Is there a know performance drop in percentage? Does the drinks break negate it? Interesting, so much more stuff than in Battrick to take note of.
His performance will dip slightly until the drinks break where they will be no longer tired. If your players are tired before the game has even started, then you should start worrying.
