haha, well I've decided to list them but for a reserve, so who knows if they'll sell or not!

P. Naidoo (rfs) 4-0-15-1, F. Bullock 69 (50b), M. Patterson 1 (3b)
End of over 20 (6 runs) - Ruff Royals(146-5) RR 7.30

Bullock was great again and makes his highest YT20 score. It's an okay total but it might not be enough on a dry pitch.

Ruff Royals won by 31 runs

Ruff Royals Egham Town CC
Batting - Top Order 7,120 5,975
Batting - Middle Order 4,817 6,293
Batting - Tail 3,183 3,757
Bowling - Seam 6,903 (8) 6,394 (8)
Bowling - Spin 8,220 (12) 7,166 (12)
Fielding/Keeping 8,575 8,703
Overall 121,488 120,739

Comfortable in the end. Patterson 3-27 was the best of the bowlers for us. 69 not out for Bullock got us to the good total and earned himself the man of the match. I think we move up to 2nd place but with little chance of catching top spot.

It wasn't that long ago that we were in the relegation zone but now we seem to find ourselves in the top spot. We're 10 points clear of the relegation places but only 2 points separate 1st from 5th.

Great batting by Laurence to get us to an okay total on a dry pitch.

A big game today against Inchigeela Angels. Despite us being top of the league, we're very much the underdog with 2 players away on international duty. I've also rested some of my spinners as it's a green pitch.

N. McPherson (rfs) 2-0-7-0, S. Whitehead 19 (31b), W. Mills 25 (36b)
End of over 13 (1 run) - Ruff Royals(59-2) RR 4.54

We had lost 2 early wickets and were just about recovering but then Whitehead got out so we're struggling again.

forgot to set a lineup, fortunately the default one was basically first choice anyway, unfortunately we do have an ordinary summary bowler taking up 10 of the overs :lol: batting first on humid/uneven, 94/2 at drinks.

S. Muyia (rm) 10-1-47-2, B. Issa 99 (118b), C. Rush 0 (1b)
End of over 50 (maiden) - Ruff Royals(243-9) RR 4.86

An okay total although I'd still expect Inchigeela to chase it successfully. Issa is furious with Ten Dam though. Ten Dam took a single off the penultimate over and proceeded to play out 4 dot balls before getting out on the 5th ball and then the new batter had to face the final ball thus leaving Issa 99 not out.

Ruff Royals won by 90 runs

That could be a hugely important win.

99 not out for Issa set us up for the win. We had to bowl well too. Perry was key taking 5-41 and it was a nice economical performance from Rush (2-14) in his 7.2 overs.

Not a good performance today especially the bowling and I can't even use the excuse that players were away on international duty.

Just lost our 2nd wicket. McCall is carrying the team so far. I'd be very happy with 160+.

I'm pretty happy with that. 90 runs for McCall was an immense performance. Now it's over to the bowlers to do a good job on a sticky pitch.
