Bloody hell, what was that guys? Part of it is on me for telling you to be too defensive early on but last time we played this lot you didn't make it through 50 overs. But still, 6 overs to go we had 6 wickets in hand and 59 runs to get. And what do you do? Score 10 runs? Lose 6 wickets? I'm not blaming you Jezza, Dylan, Malcolm. You're not there to score runs although we might be having words abut your line and length in the first innings. But for now, well, everyone have a think about their decision making in this game.

Antepli Ejderha sorry pal, hard luck. It was such an epic I’d have been gutted to lose, so I’m sure you are.

I'm out of the cup but I did better than I expected. I kept the opposition down to 219/10 but then got bowled out for 123 in 37 overs. One downside if that all my seniors are a bit tired now and it's going to be a pain to rest them enough through the next couple of weeks.

I had a similar experience, played away to a better team, made 308, had them three down when they were half way to their target then I couldn't break a partnership and we lost by six wickets with seventeen balls remaining. Still I enjoyed being part of the big competition and made a handy 37k from gate receipts. Now a lot of my players are knackered and tomorrow's very winnable T20 is going to be an exercise in trying to win with the minimum possible. Defeated by Etienne on Saturday, the youths got beat today so I've already lost more matches in August than I did in the whole of July.

Good win Antepli Ejderha 5 for 18 from Hussey!
When I went to bed you were seventy something for four at the halfway stage in the first innings and expected to see the Dragons quickly knock off whatever total you dragged your way to.Last edited by Levin; 08-08-2020, 07:51.

It was a good win, well done AE.
The only comfort I can take from the Casuals’ defeat to Fuzzy Ducks is that we weren’t all out in our run chase, thanks to a nice stand between keeper Ervin Graham and seamer Qais Lalor. Graham also caught three which helped him to a couple of MotM points. How’s that for a positive spin?

My player wages are about 90K a week, and my academies about 105K, plus the stadium upkeep (8K), so just over 200K all in. I'm selling off some of my more expensive/greedy players in an attempt to be able to upgrade my youth academy at some point. I think this may prove to be a mistake....
