End of over 40 (8 runs) - Ruff Royals(213-7) RR 5.33

I'm happy with that although in humid conditions I'm not always sure slow pitches play as such. Nice 43 from Mills and an even better 47 from Dotson from 35 balls.

It's all down to Holland for us bowling wise.

Well he was useless

He's not had a great game!

[wolfberries]

Lawrence, Hopper and Holland are our stars, Holland's been poor and now Lawrence is run out. Not looking good for us!

L. Bruce (rfs) 3-0-9-1, J. Easton 1 (1b), C. Martel 2 (6b)
End of over 18 (1 run) - wolfberries(62-5). 152 runs required from 22 overs. RR 3.44 RRR 6.91

Hopper out too so that looks like it's gameover.

[wolfberries]

Currently 103 for 6, yep game over long since.

[wolfberries]

Three run outs....

okay I know it's div 5 and he's got no future as a senior but this guy has been insane for me, 9 centuries in 19 innings, average of 117.64

Ruff Royals won by 88 runs

A big win which is very handy. Decent batting, decent bowling, and decent fielding although we did have some drops. I'll enjoy it while it lasts as my best 2 batters will go in quick succession in a few weeks time.

Looks like a T20 specialist to me; he's been out 14 times in YOD but only 7 times in 23 innings for YT20!

End of over 13 (2 runs) - Ruff Royals(63-2) RR 4.85

A tough start and we only need to lose one more wicket to be in serious trouble.

[eagles123]

Loss the toss and having a bowl on uneven/sunny against Topmen. Been a pretty even first half of their innings, 101/4 at drinks.

End of over 25 (3 runs) - Ruff Royals(107-2) RR 4.28

We've recovered a bit but I'm not confidence these 2 will stay in long enough.

S. Hassan (lfs) 8-0-31-0, C. Paton 34 (35b), B. Issa 78 (108b)
End of over 40 (4 runs) - Ruff Royals(186-3) RR 4.65

Paton due to get out soon as he's a finisher. I wouldn't mind another 80+ runs.

[eagles123]

opps middle order just been too good, 258/5 surely gonna be too good. we'll see
