Elton's Chigumbura's Northamptonshire Season

[Dr_Situ(ZimFanatic)]

Writer's curse. Just as i posted last post he is out for 2 runs. Strange, Vass opened the batting

Yeah good bowling come back economy of 2 in T20!!! Nice!

Vass opened the batting

But he scored 50 in the first game and 28 in this one so maybe hes not a bad opener, he seems to be delivering! Thats what counts.

Vaas could bat when he played for Si Lanka. He was a real thorn in England's side in the 2006 series. Not to be underestimated.

Elton finally fires hitting 39 not out of 20 including three sixes

Unfortunately, being hit for 30 runs off just one over bowled: not so good.

Chigumbura gets his first 50 today against the touring pakistani side. Well done!!

[bayhaus]

Yeah nice Knock from Chigs there and he basically opened the batting because the opening batsmen only faced 17 balls between them. And he was not out. thats good for him.

Chigs, making his County debut, has just gone into the crease. A dream fulfilled methinks
