I faced the first ball and took a single. Athreya faced the next few balls and scored 35 runs. There were 3 no-balls and 1 wide. Each no ball went for either a six or four. So, in total, he faced 8 balls (3 no-balls) and scored 3 6s, 2 4s, and 3 2s. I think I've missed one run in there somewhere, but it was good clean hitting on both the off and leg side!
The Rockers are a good bunch of guys. There was plenty of trash talking on the field, quite a few stares from the bowlers, etc. But they were sporting, played hard, and were really nice off the field. So I personally enjoyed it, because it made it a little more competitive in the beginning and so more fun!
There were a couple of juicy comments I particularly enjoyed, but the most entertaining was the way the bowlers' follow throughs kept getting shorter and shorter as the batsmen "introduced" themselves. Initially the follow throughs ended by the batsman's face, and a few overs later they eneded near the non-strikers!! :-)
Tango said... And Ruchir will still leave sometime soon, and IMHO Purdue will miss him a lot, he has really turned into a genuine quality allrounder this year.
Although Purdue are more like the Wildcats (in a sense they don't heavily rely on one person), I really don't think they have a shot at a championship without Ruchir. ----------------------------
definitely. he is one of their back bone players. from what i have seen, Purdue got few very good player and they are supported by the rest very well.
------------------------------ Just food for thought. Nothing personal against QC Kings and PCC. Both are great teams on there own grounds ;-) ------------------------------ I am a big fan of peoria cricket Club. They can win games on any ground and they have proved it. I think QC Kings is the one who needs to prove that they can win away games. Last year I heard they lost everything and so is the case against Eagles this year.
Yeah, I'm not surprised. My runup would get shorter too. By the looks of the scorecard, it seems Rockers would have fancied bundling you guys out quickly (ofcourse theres a ton of talent which didn't even bat)...
It seems you and Athreya "introduced" yourselves right about when a side would seems confident. After getting a few cheap wickets :)
Horizon & Pak, Horizon & Challengers are two games which would be very interesting. Just because your team draws from talents of a bunch of teams ...
Wish Arsenal had been in that pool though. That's some line to play against. Would have been a great cricketing experience. Bu, weve got the Cats, United & Anjuman to keep us busy...
Amazing how people jump on the bandwagon when a team does really well. I am talking about Rockers vs Horizon game. A bowler has a bad day and he is decimated not only by the bat but more by a bandwagoner.
Its a pity to see such lowballers on this blog specially the ones who were not related to the game. If a bat scores 40 runs in an over its worth mentioning but butchering the bowlers is very uncalled for.
I have played for the Rockers for the past 3 seasons and I know my team inside out. Most of the posts seem to be out of ennui or detestation for the Rockers. Knowing our spirits I am sure our bowlers will come back and fight hard as we have always done in the past.
Please!!!! Don't act like an overly sensitive woman. Considering the type of shit 'we bloggers' give to players and teams who have bad games, I thought your bowler got away unharmed. No one even named the guy.
Please read some of the recent comments against Raheel and Nasir, or check some of last seasons blogs when 'we bloggers' ridiculed the Challengers after their defeat to Phoenix.
Man you're really reading blogs which don't exist:
'A bowler has a bad day and he is decimated not only by the bat but more by a bandwagoner'
'I know my team inside out. Most of the posts seem to be out of ennui or detestation for the Rockers'
As usual aboslutely unrelated and silly stuff from you. Should grow up man. Nobody's been beating down the Rockers, in fact its bunch of real good kids... 40 runs an over is worth a checkle I guess (whoever the bowler was, don't still know by the way). I think it would be worth a chuckle if I ever happened to bowl and got hit too.
The whole bandwagoner thing is ridiculous and I will not say any more than look around you, at yourself and your own surroundings. With relevance to cricket, figure out why you play the game and what you want from the time you invest in it.
Not that it matters really, but he's a great guy and a good captain.
Also has real good hand eye co-ordination as Romeen had mentioned earlier.
Don't know if he is playing occasionally for Phoenix as was mentioned sometime ago on this blog.
Obviously, it wasn't his night with the bowl. Personally think he's a way better bat than a bowler. As a sloooow medium bowler at Hanover Park, you aren't going to get much help. Ball sits up even if youre medium.
One of the most dominant leagues in the Midwest. They have more than 53 clubs in the Association and growing strong by the day. Tariq Ahmed is one of the most dynamic President's to lead this league. http://www.laopen2020.com/teams.php?teamid=11 ------------------------------------ Tariq Ahmed is one of the most dynamic President's to lead this league. ------------------------------------ ok, so who would have sent this last bit out, TA himself????? I still cannot stop laughing
VP, Who else but TA himself. Can you think of anyone from MWCC who will write such kind words about our President??. The man is like a piece of stink cheese manufacutred in WI. The can't sell it in WI but other states..in his case he sells himself as good only to LA open. As for ADDI, Why does he keep reminding us of the LA open as if we would not look this up anyway. This guy is more self promoter than TA so we got two piece of stink chese going up to LA open. They may need SWAT team on stand by by time these two are done at LA open!!!!!
and is there any limit for how many players u can have on your roster or can u change the roster in each game. ---------------------------- addy would plz tell us your 18 players roster ----------------------- 18 rooster..Looks like ADDI taking some cheerlads in pants. I hope he is also taking protective cups but then again some of them don't needs these???????????.
straight_drive said... guyz TA is dynamic. not easy to run a league from 700 miles -------------------------------------- Are you kidding me sd??? there is nothin going on in here
Phoenix had shitty bowlers to begin with. Now they've lost Jaggi for a few weeks.
They have already lost four games, with two washouts. Which means they'll have to win 5 of their last 6 games to advance (assuming a team with 32 points advances)
Yeah right! With games against Milwaukee United, Muslim Gymkhana, St.Louis and Wildcats, thats never going to happen.
what ever it is all understand there are issues. But this is the time we need to get behind our own MWCC boys and send them with best wishes to do well. I mean MWCC is playing against Aussies all stars and Punjab Blues and even Venture XI have got international guys on their teams. Last year they did well despite of all the odds made to the second round. I am sure goal again is to make to the second round to the knock out stage and take it one game at a time. This MWCC team is reprenting us and only 11 players can play on a team at one time. Its very good that there so many talented players in MWCC who can qualify to play. Unfortunately, team is selected by management who were, don't forgot 'we elected'. Lot of other would have made to the cut or what ever but this is the team that is announced for what ever reason. 20/20 is a batsmen game and no matter which bowler bowls or balls (According to Varad:) will get whacked or should say word of the day "Butchered'. I mean MWCC has Satha, Shahid, and Nilesh who have done fantastically well in our league and especially Shahid and Nilesh who are pick of the players last year for their all round abilities at LA open. If Satha, Sahid gets to their 'Butchering' best its a different story. We are underdogs no matter what we think and either we get written off (Bloggers expectations) or its a chance to 'rewrite history' only time will tell. Until then atleast lets wish em the best and give the encouragement and leave all the 'butchering' after score cards are out:) Let all say 'GO MWCC' one time ask them to make us proud and while they are at it request them to 'rewrite history'. Lets hope for the best!
i see muslim beating purdue, challenger and pak. they will beat milwaukee since asif is not there(when will he be back from Pak???) st lous is tough to beat at home and wildcats are having breakthru season. \how will ajit's absence affect their balance???
looks like Ruchir Saheba is a star in making!!! he is in great nick right now. challenging mehul,shahid and nilesh as one of the best allrounders. talent like this needs to be indentified early and developed. who else is on the rise?
VP said, ------------------------- taking a break this week for la is really stupid. the entire league comes to a halt 'cos 15 players are missing???? TTTTTTTTTAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! ---------------------------- We lost my holday week end off cause of this S**T. They could have just given those teams off whose players were selected..10 teams I think. Afterall the know who they were going to select no matter what anyone else or the season stats say. Or was TA & SA expecting us to go as cheer-lads like ADDI is trying to do?? Only Dictators do this kind of crap. We all know what happens to dictators???.
shek is running and also stretching hamstring on the way to greek goddess bar:))))romeen is at hospital chatting with nurses:)))rup finished bashing mgmt, simon etc etc..no new material available. aditya got drunk after scoring 75 against kids..oops rockers. mitral is still crying that insensitive bloggers abusing team. raheel is getting harecut for la chicks(put time restriction on this fellow). varad one eye is stressed after optimization problem. chally and jack are hungover after night victory. mehul is buying mirros and planing to direct the sun on TA at LA.

C_Talk, for a moment I tought I saw c8w cause he is the only one who will write this much to get a simple point across..or are you c8w. I don't think anyone of us bloggers have ever, not, supported our boys to represent us. We may have dislike a few on being selected but no loss of support. If you are new to this blog it always been about MGT (TA) and they way he goes about spending our funds to his own liking on this tour.
cricket_Talk said... what ever it is all understand there are issues. But this is the time we need to get behind our own MWCC boys and...... -----------------------
exactly my point. why would talented youngster come play here if they are not given an opportunity. this is a young man's game. all the young talent is going to guess where. you got it! ACC
S_D said, Hey Rup, have a nick, eh? good_will_prevail
can't hide even if u want to ---------------------- I don't need a nik to let anyone know how i feel. Nice suggestion though. Keep it up good_will. Next Rup will be Tango or may be CMW????
CMC, Youngsters can play, opportunities are available to play, but not to nurture and improve. They cannot hope to play competitive cricket using MWCC. We don't have the necessary infrastructure to support career objectives.
neanderthal_walking said... ************************** cricket_Talk said... what ever it is all understand there are issues. But this is the time we need to get behind our own MWCC boys and...... -----------------------
sounds dirty to me. ********************************* CMC
N_w got good hind sight and I bet Tango got good fore sight:)just JKin I am just a MWCC league fan
CMC, Having new management will not suffice. We (MWCC) all should agree if that's the direction we want to go. Composition of the management does not matter.
why phoenix doing so bad with compare to similar side like them? (cats, united, purdue, MCC)
MCC and United have at least two very good bowlers. Purdue and Wildcats have multiple good bowlers. Phoneix only has one good bowler, Priyank, and as good as Priyank is, he's no Asif or Mehul.
Yeak i think Phoenix is dead for the rest of this year. May be even relegated if not careful. Last i heard Jaggi is out 6 weeks and with their schedue and weak bowling... They are staring at Div 2. Adi you got a lot on your shoulders.. Now is the time to prove what you are made of???
Man i missed a lot on my Break. Transfers, x-fers, phoenix going get killed. May be Phoenix should recruit Harry Potter. Simon selling Rup to the sharks TA & ADDI saying Rup is me. This Simon guy realy hates Rup and ICC. Hey rup get me some of your personal info cause I will have to chip in for your Funeral expense. Then again those two ain't got the balls much less get bullets to shoot anything so you are safe.
Its ok tango its happens to all of us work can get the best of us!!! Yes its gonna be BIG NEWS to all the teams you can see him playing the purdue game.
bears are crumbling. i feel bad for them. muslim is strong now, like tango said they have tough schedule, but should be good for them as a team if they get 4/5 wins.
well muslim still has a long way to go. But if the 3 brothers and new addition of faisal, arif, afforze with there current talent not only becomes of the youngest side but also most talented.
Some times too much talent group together become no talent. Too much conflicts. Good Luck to Muslim and I hope they harness all this talent into a winning team and the championship.
muslim has a hard schdule non stop playing all playoff contenders so they need to step us there game. But they need 5 out of 9 games otherwise they can forget there dream team season goodbye!!!
Sehwag is playing nice, Our vice captian is not going to play due to personal reasons, isnt that funny. Shahid Munir pulled out of the tournament last minute!!! Good Selection Comittee!!!!!
Too much brilliant people with too many strange ideas. Conserve some thoughts for other things that will benefit you in the future..and stop targetting others,who speak the truth.
Hello to Rup,Chally and Goodwill_P ,three people that seem to share similar opinion as myself.
i dont know nor do i care buddy, but all i know there is better younger talent in this leauge, compared to which was taken. They asked mr. tehseen of st.louis to go. Without any disrespect to him he did the leauge a favor by not going. He is old and cant run!!! On the other hand leauge didn't even ask IMRAN SYED last years top scorer. How do u justify this !!! Not to mentions his other brothers Kamran and Rizwan who are excellent players as well!!!
Na, the figure out who Tango is so he is on their shite list like me and ICC. They know it but refuse to accept is that to compete you need players who have the heart and desire to do so.. Not the ones who just want to go for name ans see what LA looks like. Jack would have done great on this tour!!!
Guys.. the scores from Chicago United Vs DreamCricket Fooglies is updated periodically at: http://www.dreamcricket.com/dreamcricket/news.hspl?nid=6930&ntid=4
Unfortunately, I do not have updates from the MWCC team. I will talk to Zafer/Tariq and update
mcww lost they posted close to 145 and ther other team chased it in last over and united lost by ten runs they needed 20 in last two overs but werent able to chase it good luck to both teams. If they both loose they can come back as early as tomorrow!!!
Yes, we lost in a close game. Batting first we scored 142/9 in 20 overs. Madhu scored 32 of 25, Amit 43/33. Sohail and Satha all got starts, but couldnt convert. Asif and Amit both got 2 wiks. Ventura won in 19.3 overs. They needed 30 odd in 3 and then 8 in the last one.
Chicago United lost a close one too. I dont have details(they are playing back to back).
BTW, guys, new LA Open thread is now open. Lets take it there for discussions... and if anyone gets any updates, please post it there immediately as well :-)
The Abid Laheri Tournament is well on its way. I hope you all are enjoying the bliss of Night Cricket during this summer. As always we look forward to make things better, so any feedback from you is much appreciated.
I write to you today for some important information regarding Umpiring Assignments. Going forward, for each game a Team's Name will be uploaded against the game that they will need to provide an umpire for. The entire roster of games will be updated on the web and the Teams Responsible to provide umpires for each game will be available. Kindly review your Team Assignments and notify me, tariq@midwestcricket.org and umpiring@midwestcricket.org of your individual Team members that will be umpiring the games no later than 48 hours before the game start time (1900 hrs). A Team failing to provide an umpire for thier scheduled game, will be fined $100, a second violation will result in the fine plus a deduction of 2 Points from the Points Table. Each Team will be responsible for umpiring 2 Games. In rain affected games, the umpire who has started the game, will be responsible to complete it when it is re-scheduled. Please have your Umpiring Players read the Umpiring Responsibilities available in the Ground Rules section on the MCC Home Page. If you have any questions or concerns in this matter, please don't hesitate to call me or e-mail me.

Varad,
The Rockers are a good bunch of guys. There was plenty of trash talking on the field, quite a few stares from the bowlers, etc. But they were sporting, played hard, and were really nice off the field. So I personally enjoyed it, because it made it a little more competitive in the beginning and so more fun!
There were a couple of juicy comments I particularly enjoyed, but the most entertaining was the way the bowlers' follow throughs kept getting shorter and shorter as the batsmen "introduced" themselves. Initially the follow throughs ended by the batsman's face, and a few overs later they eneded near the non-strikers!! :-)
adi, those bowlers follow thrus might end up by the umpires by the time chall and pak are done w them hehe.
sorry Rup! definitely next time..
Tango said...
And Ruchir will still leave sometime soon, and IMHO Purdue will miss him a lot, he has really turned into a genuine quality allrounder this year.

----------------------------
definitely. he is one of their back bone players. from what i have seen, Purdue got few very good player and they are supported by the rest very well.
------------------------------
Just food for thought. Nothing personal against QC Kings and PCC. Both are great teams on there own grounds ;-)
------------------------------
I am a big fan of peoria cricket Club. They can win games on any ground and they have proved it. I think QC Kings is the one who needs to prove that they can win away games. Last year I heard they lost everything and so is the case against Eagles this year.
Thanks
Pranav
Yeah, I'm not surprised. My runup would get shorter too. By the looks of the scorecard, it seems Rockers would have fancied bundling you guys out quickly (ofcourse theres a ton of talent which didn't even bat)...
It seems you and Athreya "introduced" yourselves right about when a side would seems confident. After getting a few cheap wickets :)
Horizon & Pak, Horizon & Challengers are two games which would be very interesting. Just because your team draws from talents of a bunch of teams ...
Wish Arsenal had been in that pool though. That's some line to play against. Would have been a great cricketing experience. Bu, weve got the Cats, United & Anjuman to keep us busy...
Best of luck ...
Pranav, Against Eagles, QC Kings lost at home...which happens to be the only victory for us so far :)
Which teams are good at chasing targets in our league?
HELLO
WildCats are the best chasers they proved it year in year out MCC finals Chased down 300+ score under pressure was THE best!
Amazing how people jump on the bandwagon when a team does really well. I am talking about Rockers vs Horizon game. A bowler has a bad day and he is decimated not only by the bat but more by a bandwagoner.

THATS CALLED BUTCHERING!
Div 1 good chasers
* United
* WildCats
* Pak Gymkhana
Div 2 good chasers...
* Giants
* ICC
* Peoria
* Arsenal
tango, there might be a request to spare "we bloggers" stuff...be ready with a retort :)
did u guyz notice this season, too many condolences. Man...its just tough to lose loved ones. Very sad to hear such news. Makes me very sombre.

Farhat, I heard a rumor that u guys trade afroze too is that true plz give some conformation on that.
what happened to the United Vs anjuman night game does any one have updates?
United chased 77 runs in 8 overs at a loss of 1 wicket.
guys look like in la midwest team n united will play almost same teams. lets predict who will do better? tango and nw?
Varad after reviewing the scores of Rockers it seem Prasant is the unfortunate bowler.
I think midwestunited will do much better than mwcc.
I predict midwestunited will goin in semis.
and mwcc comin home after the first round.
Yeah, I just noticed ...
Not that it matters really, but he's a great guy and a good captain.

Why does he keep reminding us of the LA open as if we would not look this up anyway. This guy is more self promoter than TA so we got two piece of stink chese going up to LA open.

hey adi,
look like phoenix getting worst. any thoughts ?
I think Tariq's the only President having a lower approval rating than George Bush.
i give phoenix one more game to get its act together
phoenix is still trying to find its rhythm this season
by the time they find the rhythm, it will be time for next season
Phoenix had shitty bowlers to begin with. Now they've lost Jaggi for a few weeks.
They have already lost four games, with two washouts. Which means they'll have to win 5 of their last 6 games to advance (assuming a team with 32 points advances)
Yeah right! With games against Milwaukee United, Muslim Gymkhana, St.Louis and Wildcats, thats never going to happen.
tango is that a pic of you, bush, ta, addy?lol
Please!
That monkey looks better than either of the guys you mentioned (myself included)
BTW, Muslim Gymkhana has an absolutely bezzerk schedule!
Their next six games are:
Purdue, Challengers, St.Louis, Wildcats, Milwaukee CC and Pak Gymkhana (rescheduled)

mehul, u have tough schedule at la???? back-to-back games on first day. watch out, addi may not make it:))))
u got a point cricket_talk,lets cheer for our boys this weekend. I don't expect them to win, but earn respect by playing competitive cricket.

They could have just given those teams off whose players were selected..10 teams I think. Afterall the know who they were going to select no matter what anyone else or the season stats say.
Or was TA & SA expecting us to go as cheer-lads like ADDI is trying to do??
Only Dictators do this kind of crap. We all know what happens to dictators???.

"talent like this needs to be identified early and developed. who else is on the rise? "
we are a middle-aged cricket league...IMHO, objective of this league is to simply offer playing opportunities, not to further one's career in cricket.
come on sd now you sound like SA and TA, CYA and "f" everyone else. thought prosess like that is the reason this league is stangnant!
wake up buddy!
Guys u r missing Maninder Bola as upcoming allrounder
Hey Rup, have a nick, eh? good_will_prevail
can't hide even if u want to
CMC - I stated my opinion based on majority of the players who are past their prime age (by cricketing standards).
How many youngsters do you see playing, anyway, despite MWCC supporting the academy.

exactly my point. why would talented youngster come play here if they are not given an opportunity. this is a young man's game. all the young talent is going to guess where. you got it!

Hey Rup, have a nick, eh? good_will_prevail
can't hide even if u want to
----------------------
I don't need a nik to let anyone know how i feel.
Nice suggestion though. Keep it up good_will.
Next Rup will be Tango or may be CMW????
CMC,
you do have a point but i think simion is right. majority here looking for time pass cricket.
No, rup is not Tango or CMW, Rup is good_will_prevail
CMC,
Youngsters can play, opportunities are available to play, but not to nurture and improve. They cannot hope to play competitive cricket using MWCC. We don't have the necessary infrastructure to support career objectives.
And I still say you are still guessing.
keep this up and you will never be a detecttive???
that's why we need management to build one. have the foresight and vision.
Didn't c8w say earlier that Ruchir is moving out of the Midwest?
Is the move temporary or permanent?

CMC, Having new management will not suffice. We (MWCC) all should agree if that's the direction we want to go. Composition of the management does not matter.

Finally, some fun!
Cricket_talk, but you forgot about the person in the middle. Wasn't that you?

am 'Stuck in the middle' with a 'Fo'(.)(.)'nd' sight
What does that mean? Sorry sir, I don't understand municipality school English.
where is everyone? romeen, shekhs, adi, c8w?
brother tango, want to talk about why phoenix doing so bad with compare to similar side like them? (cats, united, purdue, MCC)
c8w will give us a nice long preview of the LA Open games.
I'm looking forward to it.
Afroze is a new member of muslim gymkhana this news is confirmed:)
Guys I am here reading the blog not tired from 20/20 can play another one now
why phoenix doing so bad with compare to similar side like them? (cats, united, purdue, MCC)
MCC and United have at least two very good bowlers. Purdue and Wildcats have multiple good bowlers. Phoneix only has one good bowler, Priyank, and as good as Priyank is, he's no Asif or Mehul.
and phoenix batting look strong only on paper.
Jack, how are u?

So? Big deal! Afroze is no Shahid or Mehul.
Yeak i think Phoenix is dead for the rest of this year. May be even relegated if not careful.
Last i heard Jaggi is out 6 weeks and with their schedue and weak bowling... They are staring at Div 2. Adi you got a lot on your shoulders.. Now is the time to prove what you are made of???
Tango its alright I was just testing as bloggers thought u r the smartest one u still r 'work in progress'
'Fo' 'nd' short for 'fore and 'hind' only 'Fond' sight for every is
(.)(.)
Sheks would get this as he knows the greek goddesses

Ok Ok my bad, I'm just getting very frustrated at work today. Wish I were a professional cricketer.
And BTW. Ideally, Afroze switching to Muslim will be big news to me, just not today.
Man i missed a lot on my Break.
Transfers, x-fers, phoenix going get killed. May be Phoenix should recruit Harry Potter.
Simon selling Rup to the sharks TA & ADDI saying Rup is me.
This Simon guy realy hates Rup and ICC.
Hey rup get me some of your personal info cause I will have to chip in for your Funeral expense. Then again those two ain't got the balls much less get bullets to shoot anything so you are safe.
Its ok tango its happens to all of us work can get the best of us!!! Yes its gonna be BIG NEWS to all the teams you can see him playing the purdue game.
Phoenix should recruit one good pace bowler for next year. They desperately need one to complement Priyank.
Muslim Gymkhana have just become one of the favorites to win it all this year.
for sure. muslim in great shape. i think they can rattle purdue if they bat first
bears are crumbling. i feel bad for them. muslim is strong now, like tango said they have tough schedule, but should be good for them as a team if they get 4/5 wins.
well muslim still has a long way to go. But if the 3 brothers and new addition of faisal, arif, afforze with there current talent not only becomes of the youngest side but also most talented.
Even if Muslim split their next six games (3-3), they'll be in good shape to make it to the playoffs.
well muslim with 3 win in 5 games. if they can get 4/9 they might be through. they gotta beat phoenix though.
which is most difficult away game? STL, MCC or PURDUE ?
The way those teams are playing, its hard to pick out one. But I'd say Purdue will the easiest since their ground is similar to Washington Park.
Some times too much talent group together become no talent.
Too much conflicts.
Good Luck to Muslim and I hope they harness all this talent into a winning team and the championship.
agree. i think STL is the worst
muslim has a hard schdule non stop playing all playoff contenders so they need to step us there game. But they need 5 out of 9 games otherwise they can forget there dream team season goodbye!!!
i think this year 7 games might do it for play offs for one team.
simon I am fine thanks... So how many 100s you will make this year?

LA UPDATE
I JUST CHECKED IN. WE HAD SOME FLIGHT DELAYS. JUST HEARD THAT VIRU IS ALSO PLAYING FOR AM INTERNATIONAL. DAYUUMMMMMMMMM......
GOOD NIGHT...
Which teams will be in finals of Div 1 and Div 2?.......
Sehwag is playing nice, Our vice captian is not going to play due to personal reasons, isnt that funny. Shahid Munir pulled out of the tournament last minute!!! Good Selection Comittee!!!!!
who is going in for sahids' place?
TA HIMSELF LOL i am not sure but wait and watch the clowns play!!!
hasan shah is going in his place i think. was he in the list earlier?
Too much brilliant people with too many strange ideas. Conserve some thoughts for other things that will benefit you in the future..and stop targetting others,who speak the truth.
Hello to Rup,Chally and Goodwill_P ,three people that seem to share similar opinion as myself.
Shahid is not playing??????
Damn! They better pick a bowler to replace him.
My boy Sanjay Patel would have been the ideal pick.
i dont know nor do i care buddy, but all i know there is better younger talent in this leauge, compared to which was taken. They asked mr. tehseen of st.louis to go. Without any disrespect to him he did the leauge a favor by not going. He is old and cant run!!! On the other hand leauge didn't even ask IMRAN SYED last years top scorer. How do u justify this !!!
Not to mentions his other brothers Kamran and Rizwan who are excellent players as well!!!
Rup/Chally:
Good win last Tuesday. Good team. Looks like one star was out so Dan got a piece a de action.
yo tango, i thought you were LA bound too.
Na, the figure out who Tango is so he is on their shite list like me and ICC.
They know it but refuse to accept is that to compete you need players who have the heart and desire to do so.. Not the ones who just want to go for name ans see what LA looks like.
Jack would have done great on this tour!!!
Thanks Dr B.
the blog is dead is everyone in LA beside ICC players and a few other in between? :)
Any updates on the LA open.
anyone has Zaffer # can call him for an update.
He told me he is going up there on his own to watch the games.
Guys.. the scores from Chicago United Vs DreamCricket Fooglies is updated periodically at:
http://www.dreamcricket.com/dreamcricket/news.hspl?nid=6930&ntid=4
Unfortunately, I do not have updates from the MWCC team. I will talk to Zafer/Tariq and update
The Fooglies end up with a score of 180.
The Fooglies won by 11 runs The Fooglies end up with a score of 180.
mcww lost they posted close to 145 and ther other team chased it in last over and united lost by ten runs they needed 20 in last two overs but werent able to chase it good luck to both teams. If they both loose they can come back as early as tomorrow!!!
which leaves chicago united needing to beat BLUES to goto next round.
or then can go on LA city tour spend sometime together.
Yes, we lost in a close game. Batting first we scored 142/9 in 20 overs. Madhu scored 32 of 25, Amit 43/33. Sohail and Satha all got starts, but couldnt convert. Asif and Amit both got 2 wiks. Ventura won in 19.3 overs. They needed 30 odd in 3 and then 8 in the last one.
Chicago United lost a close one too. I dont have details(they are playing back to back).
Raheel bowled well and got one wik. DAXX and Hasan(replacement for Shahid) were not in the playing XI.
Best game online to me
