BT20 Groups

[Hari Sombar]

How are everyone's groups ?
And how well are you expecting to do ?

I've got 1 guy from my OD league, the rest are high places div IV and V. Expecting to come top 3, top 5 with no trouble.

[MCMLXXXII]

I am in Pakistan Group 27. The top dog is Suttay Jutt who is #3 in Div II. I will have a tough time with Khan Tigers, who is also in my group, for second place. Mighty geese is also in the group. There are a couple of teams that are #1 in their Div 4 league and I would have to be careful with my PFL when I get around to playing them. I don't want to take them too lightly.

Nooo so close, the bowlers lost it for me !
Lightening innings from Xolani, SR of 226 :14:
He has a few 20k + players so happy with that, but it was close
He also changed the pitch from H&F to flat :13:

I am yet to play Jungle and Lancers. Lancers would be easier for me to beat and idealy I shud TIE in my game against Jugles tomorrow and GFI on saturday against Lancers. But... because of izee on sunday I'm going to play my 2nd team against Lancers and expect a loss and will have to GFI agaisnt Jungle tomorrow but will still lose.

SO baisically due to the PP league and me prioritising that above 20/20 = I'm going to be out

[Hari Sombar]

I have already played durty, bloopers hasn't, I already beat bloopers, so I should be through, unless I lose on TIE

[iZeeshan]

I had a really hard group, with 3 div IIs. Should finish 4th

[Straight Bat]

you have to be kidding me, I lost by 3 runs!

[iZeeshan]

Won, but still in fourth, and will stay fourth.

[FAM]

Should be able to go through. Upsetted the second best team in my group, which should lose against the best team. Right now I am on 3rd. Got easier teams in the last two matches, but pfl is the worry.

[MCMLXXXII]

I am 2nd in my group and sitting comfortably there. The person who I thought was second best lost to me yesterday and also has lost to one other person who I have beaten. The guy who is in third right now and equal in points, will lose to the guy in first. The only threat I have for losing a game is against MightyGeese.

This will be tough because I play 2 consecutive games with him. I play him for the BT20 and then next day play PP league game. I can't show him all my cards. I need to decide which is a priority, and depending on how I stand in the group, I might go out easy in the BT20 game and play full strength friendly. I have to keep my PFLs in check. What is the lowest PFLs that you guys play with for a player?

[Hari Sombar]

I was playing with Xolani a lot, when he got to fair, I stopped playing him.

I should come 2nd now, just 2 more games which I should win on PAN

[Zaheir]

Welcome to our new player! Let us know the name of your new team and if you need help.

I made it through to the next stage of the BT20's by winning my group. I had two tough matches, the rest were walkovers for my reserves.

I beat Haqs Heroes who tops his group in III. The big match which I expected to lose was against Altamash's high flying division II side, Karachi xi. I pulled off an upset yesterday against him and won to take the group.

[FAM]

What the hell? The best team in my group lost their last match by just 1 run, and because of that I wasn't able to go through. :S I was expecting them to win.

[Saqlain_doosra]

I'm through to next stage but my bowlers fitness is already moderate. I have 7 bowlers but still they fitness is nto good.
