Post Match Update
updatebtgr5.png

Broadys messing around of the batting order and Blairs failure again looked to be the costly thing in this match. They fell about 30 runs short of what they needed against a side with a competent top order and it was that top oprder thanks to a magnificent 100 from their number 3 got them home to a tricky but attainable target of 272. Broadys lower order ineptness once again proved costly has they failed to add the few runs that could have taken them to victory. The moving around of the batting order was not a clever idea but I feel i'm finding the right order and getting a good sense of where to bat people. Another 50 from dangasela shows his class batting at 1 but next week he'll be 3. Blair got a start and out and I'm going to leave him at 2. 3 ingram got out for a golden duck,really dissapointing when given extra responsibilty but because hes a natural finisher i'm going to move him to 6 next week.Thay showed his fantastic batting again with an impressive 75 when we were just in a spot of bother.he's staying at 4,his best position. Hockley showed why his selection was a good one and he'll be batting at 5 again next week following an unbeaten 88.Mckenna made only 1 so I'm going to put him at that position :p next week and try to get him to make some quick runs. Another quickfire 16 from my keeper and a capitulation from my tail got me to 271 all out. Then bowling wise Sadlier proved his pop was good ;) and he can only bowl at number 2. Bowled very well taking 2-44. McKenna was awful again,going to have to look for pops soon or a new bowler and maybe him as a pure bat. Mellor was rubbish again,I need some money now. Might sell Blair soon. Oh yeah one of their bowlers took 6fer but who cares :p howell 1-57 ok given the wicket, Wingham 1-51 off 7 overs, way too expensive. An alright performance though,if we beat the bot and the other promoted team we could survive.No interviews I don't have the time. Oh yeah last update for a week because I'm going Portugal but this pleased me-- Gate Receipts: 85,813 :D I'm out of debt and soon will be back on track

the image is way too small. battrick users will know how to find it ;)

no :p in the mean time Broady won a friendly with a classic Blair 150 and lost the killer relegation battle. Looks like we're down now and having lost some members it looks a tough season

got to do this quickly with school soon:

Match Preview
Broady V elite XI

Reporters summary:
elite xI Broady
Top Order: respectable mediocre
Middle Order: mediocre feeble
Lower Order: abysmal worthless
Seam Bowling: respectable woeful
Spin Bowling: competent feeble
Fielding: feeble abysmal

Won't win this unless they rest a few and i get ridiculously lucky. In other news I sold Rimmer for 2K. Btw my bowling was only woeful because i played Ingram as a bowler by accident.

weekend review
Once again i was busy but we lost twice, once to the team i previewed and once to PC member gray nicholls team. There was some performances of note in the first game which with the bat we put up a fight thanks to 80 from Dangasela and 90* from Thay but the 2nd game was apalling.

Yep, unlucky last weekend Joe. I'm sure your fortunes will improve this weekend and you'll turn the corner in your season after a shaky start in a new league.

Good work Joe.

4th in the league and a strong oufit. Unless I can do some damage early on in their innings and my batsman perform i will lose. Will be very tough but you never know.At the minute i sit bottom of the league with no points, 4 behind the closest 3 teams :( but there is still hope.

The team

Cockerill (WK) After rcent pops moved him up the order until i find the cash to buy a good opener.
Blair
Dangasela
Thay (C)
McKenna (B3)
Ingram
Hockley Batting depth :D
Mellor (B1)
Howell (B4)
Sadlier (B2)
Wingham (B5)

Experimenting but may as well in a game like this

I can see that top order only a problem for you Joe.. If the luck comes by your way tomrw, you can still win it.. Should be good contest! :) Prbly batting second might turn the things in ur way.

Sadlier and Mellor really need to perform for you with the new ball. You could do it, but it's gonna be mighty tough.

Good luck.
