The Season has begun.....

Yesterday was the first game of this season and boy did we start with a bang.

Kov's lost the toss and I went in to bat 2nd :-). Next week Kovs can play in my place, no prob.

Granted the first two batting pairs had a tough time out there and posted a total of only 28 runs. However Prin and Krem managed to bring it into the 50's with some big shots.

But I think the men of the match must go to Sugan and Kribs, who showed no respect to the bowlers and batted intelligently by complimenting thier big 6's with some fine strokes onto the side nets to bring the score up to 108! ( I think Sugan has been perfecting his "stroke"in his spare time:-)

Anyway after that we just killed those guys with great bowling and fielding from everyone. If there's one thing I thing we should work on is , is our throwing at the stumps. Every game we 'throw away' numerous chances of run outs by totally missing the stumps. We ALL do. I think Suren is right when he says, we should not stop throwing hard, but rather bounce the ball into the base of the stumps. In that way at least the guy behind the stumps has a chance of catching the ball aswell. But I'm the last to coach about fielding! just a thought.

I still dont have the stats, I wont blame anyone for that (PRIN, PRIN, PRIN) :-)

On another note, my fantasy football team is up to shit! None of my strikers scored. That a$$hole Ronaldo did phuck all for me. Check out the poll.

Maybe next week Someone can take photo's of some of the players during the game and I can post it here. Will be a nice memento when our knees give up and the curtain closes on our cricket careers. ( Either that or we get too fat to bend to pick the ball up)

til next week

The Grading Game

Welcome!
This is the new blog I created for the team. Its a place where I hope to update the player stats on a weekly basis! Have a look at the table below.So whoever gets the score sheet after the game, dont run with it posie and frame it. Give it to me! Prin if you have last nights sheet with you, please send me the info for the table via email.

Yesterday was a good game. A welcome return to form. Suren, the "Valhalla Express" stunned us all with his bowling. Rumor has it that he got personal coaching from Kapil Dev in the off season.

Kovs was unfortunetly not there. Injuries always plague the stars. Sugan is developing into the team's pinch hitter, if there is such a thing in action cricket. We must just save that boy's eyes. Dont know if he can take another blue eye this year!

Everyone did well yesterday, keep it up. Personally I was brilliant in the field, as USUAL. Nish...dont comment :-)

I put a totally irrelevant poll on the blog this week. Please vote, and please feel free to post any comments aswell. Its better than sending emails and we'll have a central place to talk crap without having to hide the swear words A$$, F*ck, etc, etc....

Til next week.

PS. Phuck Liverpool.
