After this weekends draw against BCL we (Wanderers) have to go for maximum points in these last two games. The BCL game was one of my worst cricket games ever played! Conditions was poor, tall grass,wicket good on day one, piss poor on the last two days, not to mention in my first innings knock which was on day two, I got a ball that kept lower than my ankles which the end result was me getting bowled for 22. The final day turned out that BCL gained first innings points, then they gave us a target of 197 to win in 24 overs. Was a difficult target considering the state of the wicket but we had nothing to loose an all to gain. We put up a good fight with a batsman short, Kirk Edwards who is in Bangladesh with the westindies team, we got 170 for 8 in the 24 overs, I got 40 in 38 balls, but Ian's 38 in 17 almost gave us the win. Was great that Stuart had a good game taking 6 wickets in the match and had scores of 49 and 38. Last two games of the season coming up and we have two teams which are at the bottom of the table so we will have to take advantage of that and look to gain maximum points from them, as we are 5 points away from the leaders. Until then be safe! Time for some breakfast at the cafe!
