We won the toss and decided to bat first.

K. McCoist (rm) 8-0-63-1, R. Gilbert 14 (16b), M. Schmidt 27 (30b)
End of over 29 (9 runs) - Ruff Royals(157-3) RR 5.41

We got off to a good start but then collapsed a bit.

J. Jafar (rf) 7-0-37-2, D. Combs 6 (6b)
End of over 38 (11 runs) - Ruff Royals(208-10) RR 5.47

We still might be okay but it's not going to be easy.

End of over 20 (6 runs) - Castle Rock CC(86-2). 123 runs required from 20 overs. RR 4.30 RRR 6.15

It was like the above at the break which is okay, I guess.

B. Gardiner (rws) 5-1-19-1, K. Colfer 19 (42b), W. Chabrol 0 (1b)
End of over 26 (2 runs) - Castle Rock CC(93-5). 116 runs required from 14 overs. RR 3.58 RRR 8.29

Only 7 runs in 6 overs after the break with 3 wickets to go with that is some great work by the players.

It seems I've accidentally decided to bowl first. Not the worst thing in the world, I guess.

M. Roberson (lf) 2-0-12-0, S. Benat 2 (5b), P. Buchan 12 (13b)
End of over 3 (6 runs) - Pedagogs(15-0) RR 5.00

Not a great start though.

End of over 15 (5 runs) - Pedagogs(69-1) RR 4.60

Really need some wickets now.

[eagles123]

Collapsed to 84/5 another dismal batting performance. Be surprised if we even reach three figures.

C. Moses (rws) 6-0-32-2, P. Masingata 14 (17b), S. Benat 54 (76b)
End of over 27 (7 runs) - Pedagogs(125-3) RR 4.63

We got another couple of wickets but they look like they're going to get a big score so we need a lot more. We need them to collapse really.

S. Hodges (rfs) 9-1-36-1, R. Sheridan 9 (17b), L. Clouston 8 (14b)
End of over 42 (4 runs) - Pedagogs(187-6) RR 4.45

It's still not going well. We're going to need a great performance from our batsmen.

[eagles123]

excellent effort from our middle order, especially captain Dann with 58 not out, getting us up to 195/10 in 49.8. Opps batting is very strong so will be pretty close I think, but have to be happy with that total after such a bad start.

[spark]

P. Callaway (rfs) 10-1-47-1, P. Southorn 2 (3b), L. Clouston 25 (33b)
End of over 50 (5 runs) - Pedagogs(232-8) RR 4.64

It's not out of the question that we chase this but if I was betting I'd bet on a Pedagogs win. Callaway only taking 1-47 will probably cost us.

End of over 25 (2 runs) - Topmen(107-4). 89 runs required from 25 overs. RR 4.28 RRR 3.56

Topmen marching towards the required runs at the moment, badly need a couple of quick wickets after drinks.
