Indoor cricket game 4

Friday night, game on Sunday. Waiting for the selections to be confirmed. Slightly nervous as 2 other bowlers have thrown their names into the hat, both younger than me, one... Kirby one of the best bowlers at the club with better figures than me. The other bowler is Chris Willoughby - fast bowler and a far better batter than me (He's in his early 30's). At the moment we've all got a game as only 5 people plus the captain have put their name up to play on the availability vote... But there maybe stalking horses in the background umming and arghing about whether to play, it may be the case that they have Lennon's or the selectors ear? Imagine if Aariz wasn't doing his GCSE's after last weeks performance, how could you not pick him? 

Here below is the club bowling stats with some of the recent players/bowlers and you can see looking at the stats I'm not in the frame to get picked, but in this format apart from Aariz with his 3 for 5 off of 2 overs I'm the one that takes wickets. 

I've already paid my match fee to try and curry favour! Hopefully I'll get picked. As I recall the team was announced last week much earlier than this week - so that kind of infers there are decision issues? 

11pm on Friday day and I asked El-Capitano if the team had been chosen? Then he realises he hasn't posted it yet. He still hasn't, so I reckon he's still fishing around for a pace bowler who can bat a bit? Anyway, I checked out the oppo's form...

With so few games played, I'm not making any predictions. The game is subject to all sorts of variables so it can be anyone's game I reckon. We'll see tomorrow and it'll be interesting to see if he goes with the 3 spinners - Chris Willoughby - being a spinner.

Saturday... Still no confirmation of the team. I reckon they're trying to find someone to bowl seam... in which case who goes? 😬

I've been watching replays of the West Indies and England T20 games and Mark Butcher was saying after the first game where Phil Salt scored a load of runs that he (Phil Salt) thinks all bowlers are crap. I've just watched the 3rd game and seen for the 2nd time Akeal Hosein bowl him out cheap. Hosein is a left-arm orthodox bowler. So much for bowlers all being s**t eh?
