Club Cricket Thread 07/08

[Earl]

Its that time of year again. Club cricket starts today in most areas. This is the thread for everyone to brag about their results.

 

[Twizzle]

Or express their frustration, what ever applies.

We are looking for a threepeat in second grade Tweed District and I'm skipper.

Bring it on.

We won on forfeit. Pretty disappointing considering how keen I was for a game of cricket.

[Bomber]

Our local comp started today, with six teams competiting.

I scored for my team - not even good enough to get a run, which is fair enough considering I let 46 runs up in one over last year.

Half of our team consist of high school players and we were playing the reigning premiers. They batted first and were looking shaky after thirty overs but scored 120 in the final ten to score 4/241 of their 40.

We were bowled out for 191 in 31 overs in reply. The openers were on fire but the tail starts at #5 for our side, and we fell in a heap, losing our last 4 wickets for 10 runs.

Might get a run next week.

 

[Twizzle]

chased leather all day in a hopelessly undermanned team, with players out injured and rep cricket and other sh*t

chasing 305 we are none for 30 its, a pretty good batting wicket tho, a draw would be a good result from here

1 got one for alot (to scared to look at the score book)

 

[Twizzle]

got bowled out for about 160, only had 9 players

1 win and 1 loss so far

 

[Jobdog]

Won the toss, batted first, got 149. I got second top score with 25. They chased it down with 9 balls to spare. We've got 1 win, 1 bye and 2 losses.

 

[PARANoIR]

Played my first game in 3 years two weeks ago.

I an absolutely rorted lbw decision. only lasted about 5 balls, I got 2. First time I'd batted in the 3 years, only decided the thursday before hand i was gonna play, and I hadn't had a net or anything. I got 2 for 10 with the pill.

Last week was a little bit better, after a net session I got 84 not out off 77 balls. The f**king tail died in the ass. lol.

 

[Bazal]

Baz made his long awaited first grade debut after a week in thirds that shall not be mentioned, :lol:. We batted first, got off to a huge start of 114 off the first fifteen overs then collapsed in a heap to be 6/190 odd after thirty. Chipped in with 32 not out off 29 balls at the end and my mate went absolutely nuts to be 60 odd not out off about the same number of balls....wound up at 6/297 after our forty overs :crazy: Then bowled them out for 289 in the last over. Massive game really....the drought has been good for one thing down here, if you beat the infield there ain't no reason to run...

Edit-First grade return, not debut

 

[Jobdog]

Bah, if I hadn't have thrown my wicket away I coulda beaten you Baz

 

[Dutchy]

I gots 44* and 4/32 off 10..

Jobbers..where u at this week?

 

[Bazal]

No you couldn't tbh JD....

 

[Jobdog]

Baz, I was on 25 with 4 overs to go and the whole leg side on the fence. There was a single every ball there, but I straight pulled the bloke down mid on's throat

As for your question Dutchy, we're at Tommy Armstrong this week. I've heard its not the best ground .....
