I like this. It's worth the read even though I am not participating.

In troubled times, being philosophical helps a great deal, it helps you to remain sane and not do any further damage.

When you win the toss - bat.
If you are in doubt, think about it - then bat. If you have very big doubts, consult a colleague - then bat. |

Toss
CRICKETWORLD 1ST XI VS AUSTRALIA at CWCG
5 day match
Pitch Condition: Normal AUSTRALIA WON THE TOSS AND ELECTED TO BAT FIRST "the australians will be looking to set a big total which is out of reach for the cricketworld xi, and with a batting line up like this its hard to see cricketworld causing a problem"
the australians post there team as:
Phil Jaques
Matthew Hayden
Ricky Ponting Captain Michael Clarke Mike Hussey Andrew Symonds Adam Gilchrist Vice Captain + Wicketkeeper Brett Lee Brad Hogg Shaun Tait Nathan Bracken with cricket world XIs team as
WG
robbie NewBowler Vice Captain MP12 scuudz Freddie Slogger72NO Wicketkeeper + captain Kerm Fishcake PietersenFan JP "this is the first test for the new era australians, without warne mcgrath martyn and langer, and it will be interesting to see how they get on"
"replacing warne is hogg, who is favoured instead of MacGill, likely die to his world cup proformances, Bracken is in for McGrath at the expence of Clarke, and Tait is also in the team"
"as for CWXI WG and robbie open the batting for the first time, and 3 spinners fielded (strangly)" Edited by Pietersen Fan - 26 April 2007 at 3:52pm |

Can someone help me fasten these buckles down the inside of my trusty pads, I'm afraid that these days the good eating and drinking make it difficult to perform the task unaided.

Maybe you need to do the little Jayasuriya ritual to make sure your pads are in place after each delivery. Oh and dont let the beard get in the way of that hook for 6 off Tait. |

"robbie (an opening batsmen) and kerm will be opening the bowling, i imagine this is mainly due to 90% of cricketworlds able-bowlers are spinners"

so 10 overs have gone
australia are 50/0
Jaques is on 12
Hayden is on 37
a good start for kerm who has bowled 5 overs for just 12 runs, not such a good start for robbie who conseded 23 runs off his 4 overs
Pietersen Fan then came into the attack and got hit for 3 staight 4s off his first 3 balls, these were then followed by a few singles, giving him an economy rate of 14 after his first over Edited by Pietersen Fan - 26 April 2007 at 4:38pm |

yeh very well bowled MP12 especially considering you are batting at number 4 in the 1st batting innings. i thought it might be a good idea to have a sort of "press-conference" where by the eam as a whole or an individual member answers questions about how theve done, and the hopes for the next innings or game... any views on this?
