206 in a tour match but go it off 400 balls- it was the worst innings of my life

LOL, at least make your lies believable. 206 was the worst innings of your life, yeh sure mate.

I have a game on Sunday, and then another on Wednesday. Hope to get into double figures if i get a decent innings. My top score has slowly been improving though. Had a shocking net practise with the bat on Thursday though, got out about 4 times. Apart form the 4 wickets i played pretty well, very watchful, very straight bat. Played a couple of nice cuts and drives though, aswell as a nice hook shot off a full toss at my helmet :p

I hate people who lie, on here. Thats the problem with these threads. Its amazing how many double century makers we have on Planetcricket, we should get a team together we would be a hell of a side...

And Monty57, get a life mate! Make your lies believable if you really want to lie!

I believe Monty57 believe it or not.

I played a 20 over game the other day. I scored 166 but it took more than 40 balls so I was dropped for the next game. Worst innings of my life.

I dont really care if you dont believe me and if you have stood outside for 2 days-you will realise why it was the worst innings of my life

206, althought rare at any form, be it youth or adult, and into County games.

But its not impossible, so if you've done it congratulations. I've played in France against an upcoming northern french collect side 2 summers ago and made 100 against below par bowling, but with the shoddy pitch i spent from 12.40 to 18.55 out there, i played a slash shot at the ball which ended up carrying to the keeper. Either way, i was loving it, staying in etc.

You have to be a patient kind of person, which im not!

And 206 over two days at youth age is a bit strange, as you usually have to retire. But to say its your worst knock, is really demeaning it, its like, oh, top scored BUT took a few days, so im gunna disregard it. Not every top score is priceless wether its world record timing, quick, slow or normal.

Monty57, if you include more information in your post then people are more likely to believe you. You don't have to include individual names but things such as opposition, age group, type of match etc all help.

Played last evening, hit 51* playing at 6. Off 40+ balls. Dropped twice, out of a no ball and skied a six which looked a sure catch down at third man, but overall i was playing along the ground well, looking for the gaps.

Bowling, 3-1-13-1, the wicket was a leg glance to a reletively wide leg slip who took 3 attempts to pouch it. I was involved in a run out, bowled a reletively high looping ball which was deposited arial just behind the slips, and our wicketkeeper (Who has a hand problem so wasn't behind the stumps) made a direct hit. I was doing a bit of a dance, fantastic throwing from a way out!

Overall we won by 17 runs, scoring 167 off 33.4 overs.... they where bowled out in 25 overs with our wicketkeeper (Sore hand man) having a bowl and taking a cracking wicket with some square turning leg spin, round the wicket, behind the batsmens legs, and onto leg stump..A la Warne, but not as good :p

Made a lot of 50's, but only three score in excess of 100. 162* / 174* / 187 caught on the slog!

I dont want to talk about my innings on sunday :(

What happened ? 450* but unfortunately it came in 250 balls, way too slow :rolleyes:

I am hoping to improve on my top score of 9 today. Have an academy game, hopefully get a decent bat again, opened the batting in the last academy game, and my 9 gave me the 3rd top score :P. Apparently i'm going to get a decent bowl aswell, hoping to get my full 8 overs in.

Here are my stats- My bowling on Sunday was dissapointing, i bowled decent areas but got slogged around, bound to happen every now and then. 0-21 off 2 overs isnt exactly flattering though.

Chimp - the website is play-cricket (google it). Your club may well have a page on there. What club do you play for and I'll have a look.

This is the link for Stevenage Cricket Club.

They only appear to put up the first XI though. I lie, this is the team list page.
