Hoping to have a bowl first restrict them to around 300 and chase that down

End of over 50 (11 runs) - Dbest XI(288-6) RR 5.76 E. Hendricks 0 (1b) , G. Zippynbungle 3 (4b) , E. Johnson 10-0-77-2
A nice score batting first. Smiddie rightly pointed out that he went in a weak bowling attack, with 3 spinners. I had not noticed that earlier. I have 3 meds and hopefully all of them will deliver the goods on the green wicket.

25.1 W Mahmood to Ollivierre : [catch] Out, caught at leg slip! How often do you see that? Ollivierre tried to slog one that held its line and ended up practically middling it onto his back leg pad. The ball bobs up in the air for a simple catch for Bastian. Mahmood is estactic with that one, must have been the 'Teesra' he was working on... T. Ollivierre c U. Bastian b. N. Mahmood 60 (70b 3x4 1x6) SR:85.71
not looking good for me on flat. 2/162. hoping to restrict to around 300ish. Need garner to do well

That makes it two of our Nat Management team pissed off with the ME... LOL, yeah expect abit more from national managers. It cant possible have anything to do with luck can it? people never get run out in RL cricket so why should it happen in FTP lol... I have a legendary experienced, exceptional rating batsmen with finisher talent) and he has failed in every game i can remember this season (important games as well) along with my ex nat exceptional rating batsmen with elite experience up the order has failed me abit this season, while my younger inexperienced players have been doing well, and my captain who has good experience but lacking the prims like the others have done awesome. its a game get over and stop blaming the ME...
