HMCA Vigne Cup 2016/17

Annoyingly, 2 of the scorecards for last weekend are still missing from the CricHQ site. Even though all the cards in the 2nd division are up already...

Eagles played against The Development side yesterday and today in two t20s. Loads of players pitched up to play on both days as they were told they were playing and poor poor professionalism from Timoni saw several guys two days in a row get promised game time and then just sat out. These people can't seem to run anything at all.

Anyway,

The notable performances were Admire Munyumwa bowling well yesterday for Eagles. BLessing Muzarabani, Cuthbert Musoko, and all Eagles bowlers got decimated. Bar Munyumwa

And today, Wellington and Diplock stood out in the bowling department. All other bowlers went at stupid economies. Maunze batted well along with both Maruma brothers.

Final game is tomorrow and strangely enough the picks of the bowlers Admire Munyumwa and Brandon Diplock aren't playing tomorrow in what was said to be the "team of both days based on performance" Why am I not suprised...

Diplock has no chance here. He's disliked for whatever reason.

OH played Royal at OH this past weekend.

OH batted first and Cephas Zhuwao was off to a good start but tried going big one too many times and was out for 25. Vusi batted well for his 35 but fell trying to double step a spinner. Saad Khan and Brandon Diplock then went on to get a good partnership going but after they went out, the wickets tumbled due to poor shot selection.
OH were all out for 188.

Royal started very luckily with OH putting down some sitters and weren't helped by Cephas Zhuwao's no show after he batted, he went out the ground and only returned 15 overs into the second innings. His team mates were very upset by this but Cephas then bowled well tying up Royals decent start. They needed 40 runs from the last 15 overs with 5 wickets in hand. Brandon Diplock then stepped up with some good hostile bowling, and wrapped the game up for OH in the end finishing with 3-22 off 9.5 overs. Royal finished 20 runs short in the end.

OH won by 20 odd runs

The law states that if he's been absent for more than 5 overs he has to wait to bowl for a period equaling the time he's been off the field. So in theory should only have been able to bowl in the 31st over.

[Flakeman]

Yea he waited a while before he ended up bowling

Only two matches again this past weekend.

Only two matches again this past weekend.

I see that there are only 2 scorecards up on the website again. Why is this?

[Flakeman]

Country Club seems to rely on schoolboys and there was the St. John's t20 this past weekend. OMS I dunno what happened with them. Rainbow are being useless and don't want to hire OGs
