A good batting performance and a decent bowling performance. Gardiner was the best bowler with 3-42.

We're out of the relegation zone!

For now anyway.

Two run outs

Topmen at 102/4 off 28, this partnership is getting a bit concerning!

T. Matin (rm) 5.4-1-19-1, D. Bonnor 3 (10b)
End of over 42 (2 runs) - wolfberries(134-10) RR 3.19

Well, that's no more 100 below par two early run outs fucked us to be fair!

[spark]

Uneven pitch. It would be nice if we could bat.

It started badly by losing 2 early wickets but then we recovered to this:

R. Bontempelli (rm) 5-0-25-0, B. Issa 30 (38b), E. McCall 53 (92b)
End of over 25 (4 runs) - Ruff Royals(100-2) RR 4.00

Sadly, a hattrick in the over after the break killed us and we soon found ourselves 118-9. So we only lost 7 wickets for 18 runs.

M. Maloney (rfs) 9.4-0-42-1, A. Ten Dam 8 (16b)
End of over 40 (maiden) - Ruff Royals(139-10) RR 3.48

139 is not enough to defend.

P. Callaway (rfs) 2-0-3-0, G. Roberts-Thomson 25 (40b), P. Buchan 22 (51b)
End of over 15 (2 runs) - Pedagogs(61-0). 79 runs required from 35 overs. RR 4.07 RRR 2.26

Easy win for them. From top of the table to 3 losses in a row means we'll be in more of a relegation battle than a title race.

A. Ten Dam (rfm) 5-0-25-1, S. Benat 1 (2b), P. Buchan 43 (82b)
End of over 25 (2 runs) - Pedagogs(107-1). 33 runs required from 25 overs. RR 4.28 RRR 1.32

They've only got a 7 run and 1 wicket advantage over where we were at the same stage. We've got a chance then, right?
