With the season all but wrapped up now and rain coming around more often that a Pete Hosk bat review i thought id start a little topic to see who on the forum can claim this seasons "top score"....before we get into it if you feel you could be in with a good shout of winning it we may ask for some evidence to back up your claims in order to win the covetted the Custom Bat Forum Golden Bat award for the year.
Its just for a bit of fun so get your top score listed down for the year :D
Ill kick us off with my personal top score in my long illustrious cricketing career which was 124* on a sunday league game. This has supass ed my season target of 52 runs which i managed last season in total :( lol
-
131 not out not a winner I bet but decent
-
damn u Roco...damn u to infinity...im now closing this topic ;)
-
121* so i hate both of you :D
-
Cmon Tom I told you two months ago when I scored it
-
yeh id forgotten that...and you didnt even us an Ayrtek bat to hit it did u?
-
I remember Buzz saying he scored a big hundred... 160ish?
-
Thanks Alvaro - your memory is very good.

-

-

In that case ill allow your post to remain intact lol ;)
-
Senior Buzz takes the lead and trumps Roco thus far with a superb 176...however he was out ;) fine work mate! tough one to beat lets see if anyone can better you!
-
110 not out which is paltry set against the feast served up by the Buzzmeister...
-
Not the highest score, but I could have one of the highest strike rates? 91 off 37 deliveries?
-
Good going craigy batting thuggery there.....my 124* came off 51 balls tho ;)
-
89 (of 56 balls) in a Sat league games
78 of 26 balls in a T20 Cup Game (4X9, 6X6,2X1, 1X4)
Used my Newbery Thurxton SPS
-
yeah buzz got out AND got his on a saturday of all the days in the weekend to choose so his dont count ;)
thanks tom-tek :D
im hoping mine was the only not century by an opener this season? :(
-

Any hundred in any form of cricket is one to be proud of - Whatever the bowling is like, you still have to get the runs and typically bat between 18 to 35 overs to get there. That takes concentration and effort.
ARP, I open the batting too.
-
84* no where near a winner i know, but im still happy
-
but buzz, urs were on saturdays plus you got out so i win ;) ;)
-
mine was not out aswell plus i am a no.3 :)
-
110 off less balls. 2nd ever ton, the first coming two weeks earlier (109 off 94) :D
-
opening....you must be joking...i went in at 6 when i got mine as per below...

-
65 :(
and that's having been dropped to the 2's :(
Poor season.... :(
-
100* batting from ball one all the way to beat local rivals, that was a good day lol.
-
good work mate great to reach the 3 figures on the nose!
-
what was that using tom
-
If i remember correctly it was hottest day of the summer aswell so it nearly killed me haha but well worth it.
-
74* in a 20/20
-
Roco was using some screaming cat bat someone very kindly parted company with lol ;)
-
Not a winner but 105* batting at number 7! Was also involved in a 170 run stand, totally demoralised the opposition who thought the game was after 20 overs.
I got to 50 just after my partner and I said that I'd race him to 100 (baring in mind neither of us had ever scored 100), a few overs later I hit the returning opening bowler for 25 on one over. My partner didn't get his ton.
Perhaps this could be an entrant for a new comeptition about partnerships?
-

i threw up after a tidy 89 a month or so back, heats even worse when your a junior and so still have to wear a helmet :(
-
only played about half a season and my highest score was 83... only in a friendly.... only manage to bag 4 fifties as well this year :(
-

I did it on one of the hottest days of the year complete with helmet, then had to bowl 10 overs after it, thankfully I had scored a Ron as my bowling was awful.
Must have drank about 10 pints if water the next day n hardly pee'd - think I was a tad dehydrated!!
-
138 not out. Average of 88 in the league.
My team won the Somerset League on Saturday so promoted back to the WEPL. Hopefully will be back where we were a few years ago in another couple of seasons.
-
I got 15 of 2 overs on the hottest day of the year. Dripping sweat walking off lol, alot of respect for you guys
-
only had an 81* so far 3 games left tho!

Somerset Division?
-
yes that's right Ian, hopefully we can go straight up again.
-
after averaging a tidy 34 last year with 5 fiftes this year i was looking for a ton to seal my number six spot with atop score of 37 so far this year ( match winning and the hottested day of the year ... cue the chundering ) my battting has slipped but then 54 wickets so :D
-
Had a 101* twice, one was off 38 balls :D
-
my highest is 76, against top of the league. went from hitting one 50 last year to four so far this year with a couple of 40's.
I hit it against top of the league, we fielded first and I opened the bowling and bowled 12 overs. Also dived ontothe ball and got a huge dead leg which kept with me through out.
chasing 260odd to win against a quality bowling attack i decided to just go for it. I did it in 23 scoring shots and hit 14 fours and 2 sixes. I loved that innings!
-
My highest this season is 90* to go with my 82*,71*, 68* and 6 other scores of 50+ with 3 of them being not out also.
-
i got 139 and got out with 15 overs left - oh what couldve been.
-
yes that's right Ian, hopefully we can go straight up again.
Ahh could be seeing you in our division then!
Best of Luck I will be looking on the website for scores next season then!
-
Mr Buzz still leading the poll at the moment then.....tough score to beat!
-
No hundreds this year, but managed 5 50's and 31 wickets, so fairly happy with the season...
-
Im happy with my 1 wicket under my belt this year ;) last game of the season to scrape it tho...do i qualify as an all-rounder off the back of this?
-
104 not out
-
I'll take my 17* and leave thankyou very much! ;) Haha
-
No Tom, you remain a slogger :)
-
164 not out, only ton of the season and my highest ever score, i seem to remember buzz making 190 or something but maybe ill have second place. (havent read thru all of this topic so havent seen all the other scores)
-
Who do you play for Buzz?
Thanks Alvaro - your memory is very good.
178 vs Pyrford (dropped on 0!)
and just because I can - I also got 147 vs Streatham & Marlborough

Playing for Streatham & Marlborough CC? I hope you weren't the guy who dropped me on 0!!
Please don't let on to forum members who have the impression that I play like Mark Ramprakash know that in fact I only have one shot, the moo over cow!!
oh :o
-
No it wasnt me that dropped you. Interesting game though- 265-1 chasing 300- ended up 287-9!

We were 199-0... definitely a day to be an opening batsman (all 4 openers made 50, two made 100's). We (including me) dropped a fair few catches. There was also some classic panic.
-
well only 2 games left for me to try and knock some one of the top spot lol
-
Buzz is lightyears ahead of us all at the moment ;) my league cricket is now over but have a game on sunday at the local ground!
-
Have three games left but happy to be in the top ten ish scores for the season on the forum :)

138* in twenty/20.

We lost our two openers at 15 and 30 runs. So we went in with 35 and 30 overs left.
-

-
Jakob...are u using the bat that you got off of us as yet?
Yes I am, but it havent performet, as much as it can, yet..
First 6 matches 200 points and with an average of 42, but then i started to fall apart.. But it still goes like a train.
-
With the season done and dusted for myself and not caring too much as I havent won it....I am proud to present the 2010 trophy for top score to Buzz for his knock of 178.....i will shorlty be thinking up a competition that i can win!!! may take some time tho :(
No expense has been spared in getting hold of the trophy....
(http://i444.photobucket.com/albums/qq167/tom_ayrtek/buzz.jpg)
Feel free to print this out and put in on the fridge :D
PS if anyone beats the 178 this weekend or by the end of the season we may revoke the trophy
-
Tom I am truly honoured to received such a prestigious award, I would like to thank those involved, including the groundsman for making the flatest track in history, the bowlers for bowling 42 overs of right arm medium dross from both ends the whole time and to Andy for making me a magnificent bat to use (that last bit isn't meant to be as sarcastic as the other bits...! ;))
It has been printed off an put in a frame on the mantle piece
-
One game left for me this sat but doubt will beat it as plan to have some fun in the last game so congrats buzz (wish I could face medium dries from both ends lol )
-
i have one game left too not that i have the patience for 180 odd! or the skill :-[
-
Buzz it was an honour to be chosen to present such a prestigious award....just remember where you Left it when it comes to handing on the award next season :D
-
I wouldn't get so cosy with that trophy Buzz I'm after it!!! One game left and the boundaries are smaller than Peplow!
-

That is a great incentive for Colesey,
-
Good Luck colesy! with peplow sized boundaries you dont stand a chance!!
-
You're on Buzz. I very much doubt I'll get 100 let alone 180 but that's my goal. I hope the weather holds.
-
well my top score was only 46* this year batting in the lower order but a guy in my league got 218* and my friend got 189* in a sunday league game
-
if were going in to strike rate here i might aswell butt out - slow and steady wins the race :) striking at 80 is probably standard for me, never been able to smash it like some ive seen!
-
Due to school and work, I only got to play two matches. Got 7 off 5 in first match opening and then got a third ball duck to the worst lbw ever against a spinner who took 6-18 off 6.
Bowled 3 overs of leggies for 9 runs
-

I rekon I went at 100 this year, a contrast to last year
-
I went at around 120-130.
Of course my average is less than 20 :D
-
My strike rate is probably about 60-70, had a few cheeky swipes with the willow, but have unfortunately had to play some boring rear-guards - 17 runs off 74 balls going in at 15-5 being a case in point...
