Jammed by Jammers

Well that was one ass kicking as our bowling was put to the sword..after the first 15 overs From 47 for 2 at 15 overs to 334 for 6 after 45 is a bit of pounding. Kudos to the first three bowlers and Tanmay valiant 80+ but in the end...they made too many runs.

Let's start from the top down...team leaders/ veterans first.

Paul - 5.5 (.5 batting, 2.0 fielding, 2.0 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
Batted ok at the start but lost his wicket before he could accelerate. Fielding was ok. Bowling was economical but no wickets.

Tanmay - 7.0 (2.5 batting, 1.0 fielding, 2.5 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
Batting was very positive and top scored for the team. Bowling was economical and the fielding good. Dropped the man that went on to get 171 when he was not even on 10...ouch.

Coach - 3.5 (1.5 batting, 1.0 fielding, 0 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
A four of the first ball batting was a highlight in an otherwise disappointing day with the ball.

Wazza - 7.5 (2.0 batting, 2.5 fielding, 2.0 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
Useful 37 but we needed more with the bat. Bowled very well on a tiny ground. A good day...did what he could to get us over the line.

Chuck - 3.0 (0 batting, 0 fielding, n/a bowling, 3.0 discretionary)
Made 3 runs...missed a few stumpings..an unforgettably bad day for Chuck.

Dalip - 8.0 (1.5 batting, 2.5 fielding, n/a bowling, 4.0 discretionary)
Got us off to a good start with the bat. Played his role but on tiny ground he should go on to get a 50 or 100.

Umair - 5.5 (0 batting, 1.5 fielding, n/a bowling, 4.0 discretionary)
Did not bother the scorers much AGAIN. Average fielding...what else is there to say.

Bala - 2.5 (0 batting, 1.0 fielding, 0.5 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
Fielding and batting was poor...bowling was blasted to all corners. Bad day.

Sahel - 6.5 (0 batting, 2.5 fielding, n/a bowling, 4.0 discretionary)
Batting was poor, fielding was great. The usual bunny and he lasted more than 3 balls!

Atif - 3.0 (1.0 batting, 1.0 fielding, 0 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
Shaky 12 runs off the bat...bowling was 8+ and over economy...fielded averagely. A poor farewell game starting with him turning up 1 min to start time.

Reddy - 5.5 (1.5 batting, 3.0 fielding, 0 bowling, 1.0 discretionary)
Ground fielding was wonderful, band what a catch he took a certain nominee for CATCH OF THE YEAR. Bowled poorly in his one over. Did not get a chance to really bat and came not-out.

7-4-1 and looked like we are out of the playoffs sicne at that time it was top 2 team format.
