worst pun, epic

and yeah, well chuffed with that win for Texas. Then again our OD batting lineup is very strong with Dasa and Pooja and what have you. Glad we managed to put decent runs on the board. Well chuffed to blast a 50 that fast, nice note to start with. Should have been more economical with the ball, but there you go.

Damn you, Rose.

good win maine, fairly happy with my batting form

So i get blasted to all areas of the park. At least Indiana won.

Good showing, Colts!

I'm going to bury myself underneath that rather large bit of tan bark.

Great stuff from Forner. Excellent. Good to see California in the winner's circle.

Forner, what a gun performance

Batting failing Texas again in the longer format, shame for Griffen who was excellent, got little support outside of a Dasa 50. Poor batting from myself, but good bowling in the 2nd dig, I've had a positive to take out of every game so far which is good. Just need to pick up our batting some in the longer form and we'd be a strong team

Liam, any chance I can bat at #3? I think I requested it in my signup to be batting at #3 for FC and opening in OD.

I'm a terrible opener in FC.

EDIT: Wow, Josh totally saved our butts there.

You'll have to go at 4 instead. Amla won't settle for batting lower than 3.

I think I need Manan back in here so I am more motivated to do well.

Will he settle for batting above #3? I'm cool with #4 though, I used to bat there before we signed Butler (who I was more than happy to have take my spot!).

Texas are looking for another spinner, you should get him to sign up.

Rai continuing to impress while Griffen bounces back from some poor form with a couple of good knocks. Colts going well.

Who're the NY openers?
