Incey and I have just finished the coin tossing series. Have been going since I first posted it. He took an early lead but buckled under the immense pressure, and I went on to win 77-54. I'll bat, ta.
I heard it was really because until a few hours ago Incey didn't realise you were cheating and using a double headed coin.

Damn, was hoping for an innings win there. Oh wells, easy win touch wood. Good to see different people performing well. 10 wicket win pleaaaase.

They are indeed. Quite tempted to open with Prince next game, tbh. It'll be either him or Paine up there with Gibbs.
