AI away, sending 2nd team out again as i need my first team fully fit for sunday's cup match.

Welcome to Zion Oval for the match between Matrix_xfx and The Dublin Dragons.

We can tell you that Matrix_xfx won the toss and elected to bat. The pitch is looking a bit on the dry side. A fair bit of help for the spinners I think on this sunny day.

Lost by 263 runs! Bowled out for 19! With this summary that shouldn't happen. Or maybe I'm the worst manager in the history of battrick...

in my game, i lost 2 early wickets. putting us 0-2. Next one fell with 19 on the board. We struggled on and the 4th wicket fell at 58. The next partnership is stopped the ship from sinking. Taylor and Vassel pushed the score to 154!
The tailenders gave their best and got us to a great total to defend of 212.


We knew we had to get their dangerman out!
They were flying when we got the one opener. Still not who we were looking for but that was gonna come!
Gettign him was a great delight and their where 80 for 2. Still a huge uphill for us, but we were not going to go down easily!

Bentley bowled great with taking the big guys out and then the other bowlers folled by pulling their act together...

The team played well to send them packing back home for 119!

The boys played very well
