Australia vs South Africa ODI Series

[Brett_Lee]

How does the reserve player work then?

 

[aussie1st]

What are you complaining about Zexy I've got him as captain lol. Everyone has him as you would be stupid not to.

The reserve system is just for show right now.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Yeah, that's why I put him in my team. But if I knew back then that he wouldn't play two (at the moment) I would choose him. If he wouldn't be available for three or more matches I wouldn't. He can bat and bowl, so he gets a lot of points, but if he is out for three matches, someone else was a better choice then.

But I hope he plays in the second ODI. I hope Ponting gets back to form tomorrow.

 

[ZexyZahid]

I was disappointed that Ponting didn't play. Abhas could lose 17000 cash if South Africa wins this one: http://www.planetcricket.org/forums/vbookie.php?do=viewitem&item_id=394

I've put some money also on Australia, but it looks like South Africa will win this one.

Update after the 1st ODI: http://usa.cricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/2005-06/AUS_IN_RSA/SCORECARDS/AUS_RSA_ODI1_26FEB2006.html

I've lost some money cause of this, but Abhas lost 17.000 money. :

Everybody with Smith in their side is on top. Gamerkid22 won a fantasy game, but is now the last one in this fantasy game.

Dam what a shocker, I need some miracles already.

 

[akira2291]

a FC game without a captain for me :/

 

[Hariz]

a FC game without a captain for me :/

Yup thats the problem many are facing, including me

 

[ZexyZahid]

Hopefully Symonds and Ponting come back, because I need them to do something about this. Unless they want to get a duck.

 

[y2j826]

Hopefully Symonds and Ponting come back, because I need them to do something about this. Unless they want to get a duck.

me too i have ponting as captain and symonds as bonus player and they both didnt play in the last game. however smith gains some points for me cuz he is my bonus player too, but even it didnt make difference for me in Fantasy game.

 

[Brett_Lee]

Yes Ponting and Symonds would help even more!

I cant believe im leading

 

[ZexyZahid]

Ponting has been ruled out for the second ODI.

 

[akira2291]

what about symonds?

 

[ZexyZahid]

It's too early to tell about that, since the match is on 3rd March.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Ntini got six wickets. The only disappointing about his wickets is that they were all caught by catches.

Update after the 2nd ODI.

Katich wasn't listed in the squad. So his scores aren't counted.

And I dropped. But it's mainly cause the Australian batsmen didn't perform. gamerkid22 was 227 points behind me and he is squared with me.
