Played in a loss yesterday, we hit 207 in our 40, this was with two guys hitting 50s. I played a slow 14, in 10ish overs, which is actully good for me, not what you expect from a #5-6 with a goose but I decided not to play the flail every shot and played a normal game, also with 3 and 4 not performing it was good to steady the ship. The only one I middled I was droped at long on and got caught 7 overs later with basicly the same shot from a diferent bowler, never hit it cleanly. Just to show the power of the goose, against their 14 year old bowler I played a small prod away to him between mid on and long off, he wasn't that fast but the power of the goose turned a 1 into an easy 2
in our defence, one of our players discoclated his thumb, he went to sit down and a vet from the other team walked up and popped it back into place, ouch!
Special day tomorrow, dads birthday and in a piece of irony he's getting a mongoose! (he gave me one for my 21st) Same specs as mine but a 2.8. After using mine he enjoyed it very much. Will be quite funny if on Saturday we are both batting at the same time with our gooses!!
