Good idea, Ive been posting as wickets fall and its looking sloppy. I think Ill just try to make it as simple as possible from now on with a few graphics and talk about key events and players.

Hopefully this will develop slowly and surely into something that is a nice blend between a diary and a story.

Thanks for all the comments guys, keep them coming. Also missing some gay jokes so lets try to get some in there.

*immature giggling* "Mmmmffff...get some in there! Ha ha! That sounds a bit gay! Giggle, chortle, hng hng!"

Another suggestion would be to play good players and people who do not disconnect.

[hMarka]

Well this is a diary for all games that I play, regardless of who it is. Anytime I play a match on my ps3 I will post it on here. Most of the time I don't have a choice as to who I get to play.

I am sure he would love to but where are they!!!??? I wish I had PS3 'cos I would whip his tight little ass (Gay comment for you!)

[hMarka]

This will also help me keep track of who the quitters are and what percent of people quit.

[OffCutters]

Yeah, but you still gotta give your opponents a little spanking!

Now thats more like it.

[OffCutters]

Why the interest in gay jokes?

Based on my analysis you`ve been desperately wanting them!

[hMarka]

Just exercizing my right to free speech and if needed, my right to be gay.

Can't take our freedoms for granted. Some people are not so lucky.

[dutchad]

Damn it I told you not to use my profile picture anymore! That really bums me off!

verses ThandaMilk

ThandaMilk won the toss and chose to bat.

(ThandaMilk)
Australia 83 all out 20 overs
Watson 21(36)
Warner 20(13)
----------
I O'Brien 3/8
J Franklin 3/20

An unusual decison to open the batting with Mitchell Johnson led to a slow start for Australia. Johnson himself took 8 balls to get off the mark and fell for 2(10).

Australia 28/1 at the end of the powerplay.

Watson 16*(25) playing sensibly as Warner 20(13) and Ponting 3(8) fall before the 10th over. Australia 45/3 in 10 overs.

Clarke's 3(8) nervy innings ends with the first big shot he plays. 46/4 in 11 overs.

Watson 21(36) finally falls to a slower ball from Franklin after an over of blistering pace by Butler . A very patient innings and a shame he could not add more, was timing everything perfectly. 52/5 in 13.1 overs

Wickets tumbled with no big contribution from the 13th over onwards.

(LeftArmFast)
New Zealand 86/6 in 16 overs
Oram 28*(21)

A very tight field (only 1 man on boundry, 2 short covers/midwickets) saw McCullum fall for 0 in the 2nd over.

2/1 in 3.0 overs. A very tight field and Brett Lee and Siddle bowling that nagging offstump line. Too hard to get anything away, and not worth risking anything at this stage. Going to try to suvive these tactics until he runs out of fast bowlers.

5/2 in 4.2 as Ryder falls to another close fielder on a perfect shot.

Guptil 1*(13)

Field is now relaxed all of a sudden, singles at cover, fine leg and mid wicket.

13/2 after 6 overs, New Zealand struggling against the Aussie quicks.

25/4 in 9.3 and the Kiwis are collapsing chasing a small total. No boundries hit yet!

27/5 as Fulman goes as well to another perfect shot.

Great bowling with a fair field as well now, NZ just crumbling on their own incompetence.

Oram and Taylor at the crease, 57 runs needed in 10 overs.

Taylor gone to a perfect drive at short cover.

39/6 in 12 overs pressure on NZ.

71/6 in 14 overs as C White takes a pasting and NZ slowly crawl back on top.

Oram 28*(21) leads NZ to a very nervy win.

LeftArmFast wins by 4 wickets.
-----------------

Match Thoughts

ThandaMilk has improved notably as a player. Had a brief chat with him about the tight field and he was very open to suggestions. Look forward to playing him again in the near future as he is slowly becoming one of the better players on PC.


MOM Jacob Oram 28*(21) held New Zealand together during an epic collapse

[Biggy]

Finally a bit of a challenge for you but pulled it off.

Also, how did Guptill fall for 0 in the 2nd over then be 1* (13)?

[OffCutters]

Stop being a tight-ass and stop smacking every single person you face.
