Round OneWest Indies v Afghanistan: Chris Gayle becomes the season's first centurion as the West Indies make light work of Afghanistan to complete a ten-wicket win. ScorecardAustralia v Pakistan: Australia dominate at home, winning a match initially favouring the bowlers by seven wickets. ScorecardEngland v India A: One of the best games in the history of the game. Neither side could really get a grip of the contest, and the match closed as a draw with England four runs short of victory and one wicket remaining. ScorecardEngland A v India: A slightly less entertaining draw at Old Trafford, where India batted well into the fifth day in their second innings to guarantee an extra point. ScorecardPoints Table: Australia, West Indies 5 points, India, India A 3 points, England, England A 2 points, Afghanistan, Pakistan 0 points

Next up:West Indies v IndiaIndia A v England APakistan v EnglandAfghanistan v AustraliaDon't forget, you can tell me which bowlers you do/don't want to bowl and let me know what you want to do on winning the toss. Pitch conditions useful as well, of course.

Wow what a thriller! Could have gone either way.

Ill have a turner for England A with low bounce and fast outfield.

Team :
Mukund
Vijay
Dravid
Tendulkar
Badrinath
Raina
Parthiv
Ashwin
Kartik
Sharma
Agarkar

Unfortunate that Nehra misses out despite being the spearhead but I'm going on form!

Bat first if I win the toss. Sharma and Agarkar opens. Followed by Ashwin, Kartik and Raina. List Tendulkar as the 6th option of possible!

Aus XI:
1.Hughes
2.Watson(b)
3.Katich
4.Ponting(c)
5.M.Hussey
6.M.Clarke
7.Haddin(wk)
8.Johnson(2)
9.S.Clark(b)
10.Hilfenhaus(1)
11.Bollinger(b)

Clarkey returns to displace the disappointing D.Hussey, Katich is also on a very thin cord, and if he disappoints again he will very likely join David in his fate.....
You know, I'm trying to decide whether to change my siggy or not...

Shame on boring India for being scared to make a game of it against us. Hopefully their A side will show a little more ambition.
 
Gale
Davies
Bopara
Taylor
McGrath
Hildreth
Rashid
Shahzad
Hoggard
Jones
Panesar
 
I will bat on winning the toss, and if possible set it so that McGrath is the 6th bowler since I see he bowled ahead of Rashid last time.
 
I have still to decide on a replacement for Tresco in the squad.

But Clobs when Zaheer Khan ends up playing 225 balls, there is something not right with the attack. Maybe another seamer in your side would do you good.

ah! no aggression levels this time, seriously I'd have called Zaheer back if he was batting so slowly. Disappointed that we couldn't win. Munsf wasn't up to the mark and I may have to re-consider my bowling lineup but I'll wait for spinny to give me pitch & conditions first.

very happy with Gauti and VVS ... well done boys

Excellent pitch, excessive Bounce, fast outfield - Venue at Kensignton Oval - no way the Indians can win this one, haha.
 
Same squad JP

I'll be running the next round of games tonight - hopefully have them up in around 12 hours. That will probably be the final round until around the New Year as I won't be taking the computer on which the sim is home with me.

Round 2:

More exciting games!

West Indies v India: Gautam Gambhir's triple-century sets India up, but the West Indies get within a ball of saving the match in another tight finish. Scorecard

India A v England A: India A wrap up a comprehensive win with Parthiv Patel impressing with the bat and an all-round performance from Ravi Ashwin catching the eye. Scorecard

Pakistan v England: Brilliant Pietersen century turns the game on its head and guides England to a fine victory. Scorecard

Afghanistan v Australia: Australia give brave Afghanistan a thrashing with Mitchell Johnson in all-round form. Scorecard

Points: Australia 10, India, India A 8, England 7, West Indies 5, England A 2, Pakistan 1, Afghanistan 0

Next up:

Australia v West Indies
England v Afghanistan
England A v Pakistan
India v India A

If I get teams in quickly enough, I can probably run these games on Sunday or Monday...

Ah, so close yet so far.  Same team again JP.
 
And Clobber, you should sack that bowling attack for making the tail make so much.

Good win! Really happy with Ashwin and Parthiv's performance. It was nice to see Mukund getting amongst the runs too. Hope the Little Master and Murali Vijay fire against their own countrymen in the next game.

It works if you pick in form players and drop those who are not performing as their confidence levels will be low. You'd be better off dropping Azhar and picking another batsmen, just my advice though!

Just started running the matches in Division Two, and a couple of highlights below:

South Africa bat, and bat, and bat, and then bat some more, and then just for the hell of it, bat a bit longer against Ireland: Scorecard

Bangladesh turn New Zealand over: Scorecard

I forgot to save the scorecard, but Sri Lanka chased down 430 to beat Ireland by two wickets in a thriller

Results so far:

R1: Bangladesh beat Kenya by one wicket, New Zealand beat Scotland by an innings and 68 runs, South Africa beat Ireland by an innings and 586 runs, Sri Lanka beat Zimbabwe by eight wickets

R2: Kenya drew with Zimbabwe, Sri Lanka beat Ireland by two wickets, South Africa beat Scotland by 276 runs, Bangladesh beat New Zealand by 97 runs

Points: Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, South Africa 10 points, New Zealand 5, Zimbabwe, Kenya 3, Ireland 1, Scotland 0

Saffer's are likely to get into Div one at this rate!
Their batting confidence must be sky high!

I don't think they've taken too kindly for being 'relegated' having won the previous two seasons!

Division Three will get underway when Canada and West Indies A turn up, hopefully later today.

A fivefer for Keedy in his 1st test and then he only gets to bowl 2 overs in the 2nd dig - what you playing at Straussy ?  I'll have a think before picking a side for the next match (actually I don't know who we're playing and I'll have to go have a look - professional huh !)
