Couldn't play at the weekend because of a back injury, but played last night as a batter in 20/20 and hit 47, including a couple of big sixes, and took a couple of catches.

Won t20 tonight so through to quarter finals poor 13 with bat again but 5-1-25-2 including a wicket maiden off my 3 yard run bowling cutters and yorkers won by 51 runs as well

First duck of the season, a golden one at that. Stumped off a leggie when my back foot didn't move out of the crease or in the air

We played a team 5 divs higher. We got 116-8 (?) they were 120-5 off 16. We gave them a game

Made up for yesterday with 51* retired today we successfully chased down 197 (in a T/20) with 7 balls left

Made my first considerable score of the year last week, blasting a 27 ball 71*! Since then, its gone all downhill and back to the uncertain 20's.

 4-14 today, and made 77* last week.

[Mr Cricket]

had a good week! 3 50s since saturday and a 40 not out off 13 balls last night, never hit a cricket ball like that before in my life. got games saturday and sunday on good pitches and then on monday playing a 50 over match for county gents with free food/beer all day!

good weekend coming up then mr. c!

another 2 hour trip up the M5 tomorrow, feeling in good touch though with a couple of recent 50's behind me so looking forward to it.

Who've you got today Ian?

[espocrespo]

played today for 2's, the opposition batted first, the first three batsmen got 50's (all first teamers) and then declared, after there main batsmen popped his knee out, this was 237 for 2 off 37 overs.

I went in 7, this is when we were, 40 for 6, got 3 runs, ball stuck in the track of the 1sts opening quick bowler, popped up, just chipped it straight back to him, was so annoyed.

to make my day worse i find out from the scorer it was the 7th ball in that over :/

[alexrickyponting]

ooh that would piss me off so much! unlucky.

also played for two's today, against a team who were promoted last season and have the odd tactic of inserting the opposition and then batting out their 47 overs later for a draw! we were 20 for 3 (i was 4) and me and my mate put on 80 odd, i toed the worst ball i faced to point on 37, gril-height wide outside off  we got to 223 for 9, declared on 50 overs so we had 50 to bowl them out, got them out for 100 or so with 15 overs left, they never even tried to get the runs!
three times in a row ive done the hard work, steadied the ship after a bad start and then got myself out! 24,30,37 last three games, any tips?

Easy win today with a cheeky 67 for me at last

just been looking at the scorecard, that guy who got me out normally plays firsts, he has played 10 games for them this year, surely you cant just drop down after playing that many games

After 3 league 50's this reason I finally converted one today . We got 306-5dec off 49 overs, I scored 178. We managed to bowl them out after 50.3 overs, only 3 balls left. We won by 170 odd. Marvellous. Off to buy some more beers!

[Colesy]

Finally got league runs! Got 110 today, first league ton!

Played for the 2's to 'get runs' and they batted first, got 204-8 off 45, one bat getting 98*, not much else, mainly 10'/20's. We batted, I opened and we got off to 6 an over for 6 overs so a good start. Wickets kept falling cheaply mirroring their innings and I knew I'd be playing the role of their opener who got 98*. I got out caught at long on needing 5 to win. Still, 4 bowling points and max batting points, can't complain
