Battrick Match Thread

[Sean]

I thought I'd start a thread just for Battrick users to post updates during a match.
Post updates, results etc. in here.

[Sean]

I am playing Real Payne United CC tomorrow.
They are fourth on the ladder.
I'm already certain of a spot in the finals. I am 3rd with 2 games left.

They have a player called Stuart Blenkinsopp.

He looks like a gun. I'll need to get him early. It seems that my captain, James Thackeray, is playing his brother, Vic Thackeray.

I didn't even play my main guy last time. and my main bowler did not bowl!

[Sean]

Bad bad start.
I won the toss and elected to bat.
I come on and we just lose a wicket.
4.5 W Thackeray to Warrington
Out! Warrington tries for a pull shot only to see the ball catch the edge of the bat and go straight up. Dayton takes an easy catch and Warrington is on his way.


End of Over 6: 12-2, runrate=2.00
Oconnor 3-0-6-0
Mccormick* 6 (15 balls)
Clee 0 (6 balls)
Last Wicket: Warrington c. Dayton b. Thackeray 2 (FOW: 9/2)

[Sean]

I just noticed that Thackeray got his brother out for 4.

[Sean]

F***!! (Sorry for language)
9.5 W Oconnor to Clee
That's what bowlers love to see! The bails flying, stumps everywhere and the batsmen's face when he looks down at his stumps, priceless!

End of Over 10: 31-3, runrate=3.10
Oconnor 5-0-13-1
Mccormick* 21 (28 balls)
Whitman 0 (1 balls)
Last Wicket: Clee b. Oconnor 3 (FOW: 31/3)

I really need some better batsmen. THey are so inconsistent.

[Sean]

Mccormick has just gone BANG!

14.2 6 Muralitharan to Mccormick
That full toss has gone soaring high, high, high in the air and I don't think that it's coming back! That's gone into orbit!

He is 39 from 41 balls.

make a bid for him now. i think he finishes on saturday. my team is class acts. bat him in position 5 or 6 and he will score quick 50's for you with strike rate like afridi. he scored 96 off abt 40 balls for me in one league game. go to search and type his name in. he plays for class acts.

[hasbeen]

i saw another good batsman for you who bats for a team called rebels. haresh ghandi. i think he is at 50 000 and his averaging 81. he bats as a opener or number 3 ie anchor man. i was gona bid for him but cant afford it

hopefully no one will. if you get him, he will be a good buy for you. you going to bid for that haresh ghandi guy?? he seems to be a good opening or one down batsman. look at his recent matches. he seems to make a lot of 50's and 100's. if i had enough money i would have bought him.

I still have to wait for tomorrow. There could be other bids and I could lose.
and I only have 62,000 in my balance. How much do you have to have for your team to be taken away from you? I heard it was -300,000.

lol you have plenty of money then. my bank balance is - 172000. just dont let it go over minus 200 000 and youl b alright. the thing is after minus 150 000 you cant make bid for any players, and each week you make a profit so you wont go bankrupt.

[Sean]

Six to Black. BANG!

24.1 6 Walton to Black
Planted his front foot to the pitch of the ball, and swept it magnificently over midwicket.

11 runs from Black that over. Excellent stuff!

what do you think of this guy sean? im thinking of selling him. with nets he can become a brilliant player because he is so young at 18 and averages over a 100. would you be interested if i decided to sell him???

[Sean]

The thing is, you'll probably get a massive bid if you put him up. Don't bids go for 2-3 days?

[Sean]

NO!!!!!!!!
25.3 W Oconnor to Mccormick
He's out! That was a disgraceful shot. It was a wide ball and he's had a little dabble and gifted Dayton a catch.

I think that might be game over for me. He goes for 64.

sean you seem to have 212000 to spend on players. hopefully youl get billy clarke and haresh ghandi and maybe you need to invest in one or two more batsmen. how are your bowlers like???

[hasbeen]

the first thing i did when i joined was, decided to buy a lot of players because the ones they give you are *****. i signed upto 15-20 players at the begining and it has worked for me because i have only lost one game since i started and that was to the top of th table team. you need to invest in players to start sucessfully

i would train him but i aint got enough nets to train him. if you have 3-4 nets then i think he would be a good buy. 1-2 batting nets, one fitness net and one fielding net. then in about 4-5 weeks his batting,conc and stamina would be competent. if he has an average of 100 at the moment then after 4-5 weeks training, who knows lol he might average a lot higher. im just saying how much would you b willing to offer if i sold him to u??? give me a price and il consider it.

It's cool. I think 2 will be enough atm. I'll look for some bowlers.

OH MY GOD! Longrigg, probably one of my worst batsmen, has carted Walton for 6!
31.2 6 Walton to Longrigg
Going, going, gone! Out of the stadium and onto the road. Longrigg sure got a hold of that one.

[Sean]

Ahh god.
31.6 W Walton to Longrigg
Longrigg's bat has got stuck in the turf, and a direct hit from Blenkinsopp at point catches him well short of his ground.

[Sean]

This is a classic comment from the commentator.

31.3 . Walton to Longrigg
Short and wide, just like my mother in law. No run.

Handbury has moved to 19 but I feel a wicket will come soon and undo the work that these 2 have done.

buy players that can improve your team. this is my advice. buy one or two youngsters under 19. train them up for a season so they improve every week. along with that buy 5-6 players who are 20 odd who can perform for you week in week out straight away.

[Sean]

I have to keep Mccoormick and Black. They've been brilliant for me.

[Sean]

Who should I put in the nets?

[Sean]

BLACK INTO THE NINETIES! The nervous nineties.

[Sean]
