FTP: From the Pavilion general chat

[Iridium]

Bowled my opposition out for 105, Phelan taking 4/12 from 4 overs. Lost 2 wickets chasing down the target, so won by 8 wickets. First win in T20, which is kinda sad.

Does the match rating play a huge part in matches? Just interested to know.

 

[Chewie]

If your match rating is higher you should be expected to win your match. It's like an average of the rating of your players. So in a way it plays a part because the higher match rating, the better your players are

End of over 12 (8 runs) - Saurashtra Lions(116-3). 85 runs required from 8 overs. RR 9.67 RRR 10.62
A. Yogesh 0 (1b) , T. Logan 44 (29b) , B. Thotagamuwa 4-0-43-1

11.5 W Thotagamuwa to Gambhir : Got him! Beaten in the flight and the ball sneaks through the gate and disturbs the furniture. Lovely bowling.
G. Gambhir b. B. Thotagamuwa 69 (40b 4x4 2x6) SR:172.50

Tough task. Lost both openers on 1st & 2nd ball of the match....

Ruben Mol started his career with a 6 lol, in the first over, after Byrne hit a six in the same over then hit a single before Mol then hit a six to get off the mark first ball. He ended up making 81 off 51 balls with 5 fours and 4 sixes putting on a hundrede run partnership with Miller who scored 53 off 28 (Byrne was dismissed early for 10). Young and O'Leary took it to them at the end though with 36* off 20 for Young and 31* off 15 for O'Leary as we scored 212/3.

I then bowled them out for 139, James 3/36 (4), Habeebulaah 3/30 (4), Muddle 2/14 (3), Kentwell 1/12 (3) and Fiebig 1/47 (4), so I won by 73 runs to move into second on the ladder, with 3 wins and 1 loss.

I'm owning up my league. As Iridium can testify.

I'm owning my youth league (1st in Div 4), going well in T20 (2nd in Div 4) and going ████ in OD (7th in Div 3) and I expect another OD loss this week.

Great start for me in FTP.
Bowled out my opposition(who is 2nd in my division) for 48 in a T20 and then won by 9 wickets. Three new signings really did the wonders. They took 8 wickets between them for 26 runs

LIES!! ALL LIES!! :laugh

Naw, Chewie is tearing up our league. He's unbeaten. I've got 1 win from 4 games. (1 of those losses wasn't mine and the other 2 came about cause I had a crap team)

 

[Chewie]

I've got a NRR of above 6. Which is quite impressive after 4 matches

 

[aussie1st]

Ah great I'm on a massive losing streak and I play 1st in OD. My team seems to have gone crap all of a sudden as I did alright in my OD league last season.

It's pretty damn good. It's 'cause you're bowling teams out for under 100 and chasing down the runs in less than 10 overs. In your last game, you ended up with a RR of 14.00 chasing down 80-odd.

I just realized I went into my last Youth game with 3 spinners. I really need to find some fast/medium bowlers. I did a youth pull and got a 16yo fast bowler so I'll be working with him.

I've got a RF bowler you can have if you want

^ My two RF bowlers. Not sure which one I should keep but you can have the other if you want.

 

[hedger_14]

No use to me. I would have taken them if they had better bowling.

 

[Chewie]

I was referring to Iridium I have some better bowlers and they're LFM and RFM so I normally play them instead of these two.
