Notice also the fact that I'm the only Legends batsman that you failed to dislodge in the first innings.

That's just a sorry excuse from a team who couldn't get me out. Gee, you managed to get the rest of the team out- Why not me? Slow innings you say? Bit of resistance, that's what it's called, son.

Meh, it was a dodgy pitch. Either I could've batted recklessly and gotten out like the rest of my team-mates, or I could've dug in and tried salvaging a decent score. Luckily for you guys the pitch calmed down a bit in the second innings.

 

[rickyp]

sure sure, we will see if thats true tomorrow, id say we would be good odds for the innings win right now.

 

[The Spin]

Ha!!! I cant believe what has happened since that sledging!

5-29! 5 for 29!!!

A 50 for me would have made it perfect, only got 1 in the end but who cares?

Carn the Bits! Bowlers played superbly and the batters showed their stuff. Looks like a win for us now


The Spin's ICL Bowling Tracker:
18 wickets @ an average of 14.1

Congratulations, you stood there deadbatting everything throughout the innings and ended up only adding 30. If you had gone quicker then you might have actually helped your team to a decent total

Haha, love the sledging here. There will be even more if we face the lower Bitters in the final.

 

[rickyp]

yeah but it wont be the same since its not on the same forum.... this is great fun though, shame its only gonna last the 3 days play

 

[The Spin]

The stats tracker has made my sig, so you can be reminded of this all the time!

[The Spin]

You never know, that game is close enough to change at this early stage

 

[rickyp]

yeah, they had 2 draws before this aswell which i find quite impressive

Oh, yeah- Played a more aggressive innings just like the other batsmen and get out cheaply? I think not! Alright, you got a few wickets but nothing to get too happy about, kid- It was a green track and bowlers dominated. Let's see how you fare in the second innings.
