End of over 45 (2 runs) - Camberwell Carrots(151-10) RR 3.36

gonna be an awkward chase, but happy with that. Unfortunately it might prove irrelevant with Ffoh going so strong.

End of over 47 (21 runs) - Ffoh(288-3) RR 6.13

Really bad bowling from us in the 2nd half; very disappointing. Need my batsmen to turn up but I suspect we'll be skittled for a low total, unfortunately.

End of over 25 (4 runs) - South London's Number One CC(93-2). 59 runs required from 25 overs. RR 3.72 RRR 2.36


going along nicely, but our batting is a little shaky if either of this pair get out, so not taking anything for granted in terms of our result just yet.

I wish this game was 24 overs a side as we were well ahead in comparison.

The reality is that it's not gone well for us in both innings after that.

Not sure what we need to get/how long we need to last in order to hand the title to South London's Number One.

It's some collapse for us. 132-1 to 182-9.

[eagles123]

Not quite to be, losing out by around 0.02 NRR if my calculations are right. Well done to Ffoh on consecutive titles, they beat us comfortably in both games so can't complain about that. And pretty happy with 2nd is first season at this level, even if it is a little gutting to miss out on the title by such a narrow margin

Ruff Royals won by 9 wickets

I'm happy to start with what turned out to be a comfortable win.

All the bowlers took a wicket on this uneven pitch except for Bruce who still did a great job by only going for 9 runs from his 4 overs. 55 not out for House and 32 not out for Gilbert saw us get the win.

I certainly don't feel like we're as strong as last season so survival is all I'm looking for.

Home today in crumbling and windy conditions, won the toss and batted.

Not really surprised we lost, going to be a long tough season for our youths.

[eagles123]

won the toss today in overcast/dry, opted to have a bat. Not feeling particularly confident, got a fairly rotational side out.

surprisingly managed to get a tie out of this one, opps needing 1 run from 2 balls, but a dot and a runout saw us to 2 points in a game I fully expected to lose. Happy with that!
