Sorry I forgot to post about it.

Anyways, we won, I didn't really "contribute" this game, only scored 9 runs off 3 balls, went for 20 runs off my 2 overs, a bad day for me, a good day for the team.

Finals is on Friday(June 10th), practicing hard for it, hope to do well.

No problem mate. All the best for the finals.

Thanks.
Btw, how have you been going?

Yesterday was the final game to this Spring season. It was a pretty one sided game, we clearly were able to out class the opposing team.

I contributed a good bit in this game, after my poor performance last
game, giving away 20 runs off 2 overs and scoring 9 runs off 3 balls.

This game, I stepped it up, 58 off 39 balls and a took 3 wickets with the ball, which pretty much set up the win for us.

So yeah, good day at the field.

Congrats. And yeah, I'm going great practicing for club cricket.

21-0 (He was a gun be fair)
1-2

Not bad mate.

Had some awesome practise the other day with a mate. First bowl in a few months. Bowled seven balls outside leg stump on the same spot and they all spun in to clip the top of off stump. He was toally bemused

I had my final rep trial for my area. Feeling confident. My bowling was awesome - lots of spin and flight. My fielding was awesome - I took a ripper of a catch but my batting was 'meh'. My area's known for its bowling, not batting. We only got twenty balls so I didn't get my eye in.

Well done mate. Are you an offie or a leggie?

Offie.

I'm scared. In two days time, I'll be facing year elevens and twelves charging in at me!

Easy peesy.

I'm a useless batsman though.

Had cricket training this afternoon. It was good. Bowling was awesome - great line and length but I needed to toss it up a bit more. Batting was awesome. I was smoking them and fielding was good.

Cricket training started a couple of weeks ago, Bowling better than i ever has, got a pit more pace, great length. Batting was alright, but it getting there.

Stop complaining, I play seniors and I'm a rubbish batsman. I scored 17 once last season though.

My Cricket season will start soon, too bad I'll be in europe when it starts.

Yeah hilt, i'll be playing 16's and seniors this year

I played for my 3rd X1 when I was 11, scored a 36 on debut and went up to 2nds, I now occasionaly play for 1sts, but bat at 8.

Had a 'surprise' match today, wasn't part of our schedule but, went with it anyways.

We got a terrible start from our openers, we ended up losing 4 wickets in the first 3 overs. So it was me and another player at the crease with 17 overs to go, we both took on the bowling in our own ways, I went after the bowlers. He was a bit more cautious on his shots, but in the end we were able to get a pretty good score up. Tbh it was a great recovery, we were 20-4 at one stage, we ended up 156-6. I scored 68 of those runs, the other guy scored 56.

Now we were set to bowl, then comes the rain... EPIC FAIL.

What do you mean 'surprise'?

More than good score, by the way! Good stuff.

They informed us 2 hours prior to the game.
