Falcons chose to field

Falcons need a win here.
Fabian has to come good with bat

In reply to Raskil

First with ball.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-15 23:15:35 

And that's where we have deteriorated most, fielding.

 
Raskil 2024-09-15 23:24:13 

In reply to natty_forever

He’s been decent with the ball.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-15 23:24:18 

No King. I'm now playing 8.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-15 23:25:22 

In reply to Raskil

Best he's been in the power play. Goes at 16 in the power play.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-15 23:27:56 

They drop Jewel but not Primus, interesting.

SLK lose their 2nd wicket as Duplessis goes to Green! Did not make much of his earlier chance. Greaves must be happy.


42/2 after 5.4.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-15 23:28:16 

But all the teams the West Indians fielding is sub par.

 
Raskil 2024-09-15 23:30:00 

In reply to natty_forever

They have a dream start here.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-15 23:30:21 

Chase gone for 1st ball duck!

Went after it from ball one which is no this game. Poor decision and shot. Green on a hattrick!

 
positiveg 2024-09-15 23:30:35 

Chase take more time to get set than his actual stay at the wicket. Lol

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-15 23:32:08 

Seifert survives the hattrick ball! Seriously perplexing Chase's shot.

42/3 after 6.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-15 23:35:29 

51/3 after 7

Seifert nice 6 over extra cover to end the over!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-15 23:43:40 

67/3 after 9.
Auguste 15 off 13.
Seifert 10 off 8.

 
Drapsey 2024-09-15 23:46:59 


This Pitman guy looks built for fast bowling.

Hope he doesn't go the route of OT.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 00:48:00 

In reply to Drapsey

I see you and Natty have pledged your allegiance to the Falcons?

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 00:48:06 

8:44pm: Hip hip hooray! No covers in sight, so we're not far from getting back to cricket. Sopper soppers are swooping across the ground, getting rid of the moisture

78/3 after 10 - Rain delay maybe soon over!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:05:22 

7 balls after he restart and Seifert goes! Big wicket! Green having a good game with 3 wickets.

84/4 after 11.1

Rajapaksa in now!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:07:03 

Two lefties in for SLK. With Green's success i expect to see Kofi James soon.

 
Chrissy 2024-09-16 01:08:01 

86/4 from 12

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:09:27 

Yes as expected Kofi to bowl the 13th over.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:10:38 

Goneee! Wow Rajapksa going the way of Roston Chase! Big strike! SLK in a spot of bother.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 01:12:20 

Problem with these teams...their batting sucks. Get out shots all round. David Wiese is a sensible guy. Hopefully he can get some here.

 
Chrissy 2024-09-16 01:15:23 

In reply to voiceofreason

Correct
5 down

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:15:58 

6666 finally Wiese breaks the shackles!

100 up!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:17:48 

Gone!

A 4fer for Chris Green on the final ball of his spell! Auguste the top scorer gone bowled playing across the line!

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 01:18:27 

Greeney come to the party.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:18:38 

Auguste 35 off 28.

103/6 after 14.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 01:18:54 

Top spell that by Green.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 01:19:43 

Descarte can bat. 6 overs to go.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:23:48 

105/6 after 15.

Can SLK finish strong - 150 plus? No real consistency through this innings. Credit to the ABF bowlers but some questionable shots too.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:25:03 

In reply to WIForever
5 to go. Descarte can bat but he needs to play straight and get himself in first. Playing too much across the line too early.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 01:29:02 

In reply to voiceofreason

Saw him score some runs in the Vincy tournament. These two need to bat out the overs. Get to maybe 145.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:29:57 

44444 finally Descarte gets hold of one! Really ugly innings here.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:30:38 

44444 ok he is getting his eye in! This one over the offside. Good over off Springer 12.

122/6 after 17.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:36:49 

Only 7 from that Amir over!

129/6 at 18.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:39:22 

Descarte gone. Twas expected. Never looked the part. 13 off 14 balls. Springer strikes!

130/7 after 18.3

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:40:04 

Aljo the new man in!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:43:03 

Aljo goes ! Springer has 2 in the penultimate and only 3 runs ! Springer has a spring in his step.

132/8 after 19.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:43:33 

Young Pittman only 21 entrusted with the final over!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:44:49 

6666 Wiese off the 2nd delivery! A short one he swivels and pulls it for 6 against the wind!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:45:58 

6666 again but this one is a teaser yeah Beckett! Green just watches it as it soars agonisingly over his head!

 
Chrissy 2024-09-16 01:47:44 

152/8 from 20

 
Chrissy 2024-09-16 01:48:25 

In reply to voiceofreason
He will learn

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:50:15 

Yikes 6666 off the last ball! Wiese and SLK take the momentum to the dressing room! What a stormy innings by Wiese 44 off 26!


152/8 after 20. Good comeback by SLK but is it enough ? ABF don't have Zaman, King or Jewel. Will be an interesting chase!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 01:55:48 

In reply to Chrissy

Yes has some potential. Good pace.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:01:50 

Greaves and James to open the innings!

Wiese after that whirlwind innings, opens the bowling.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:03:13 

Kofi wild swing off the outside edge over the sole slip fielder Roston chase 444444 unconvincing runs.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-16 02:05:56 

17 overs

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:06:16 

66666 Kofi connects . A little move to outside the line of the ball and pulls it over long- on for 6. Big shot after several misfires.

11/0 after 1.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-16 02:06:34 

In reply to voiceofreason

66666666

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:06:45 

Khary Pierre to bowl the 2nd!

Two singles.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:09:00 

Kofi James out!

Soft dismissal . A wide delivery from Pierre moving further away he was on the back foot and reaching. Easy catch for JC. SLK strikes early!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:10:41 

Successful Pierre over 14/1 after2.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:12:12 

Aljo for the 3rd ! SLK needs to keep striking. ABF batting a bit shallow.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:13:07 

44444 shot by Billings just a push really past the bowler! Shows you how good this pitch is.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:17:46 

10 off the over - 2 wides- 24/1 after 3.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:17:48 

Supporting the Falcons to win this. Their batting looks a bit short.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:18:21 

Sam Billings is overated.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:18:50 

Billings really not top billings this season with another failure. Soft dismissal as he steers a short delivery into the midriff of short midwicket.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:19:23 

Hamilton strike rate is 70..lol

 
natty_forever 2024-09-16 02:19:28 

The least said about Hamilton...

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:19:45 

Hamilton gone.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:20:06 

Wow my boy Jahmar Hammie 1st ball duck! Not good! Pierre on a hattrick! SLK on the up!

 
PalsofMine 2024-09-16 02:20:21

Falcons the mind set is wrong. Go hard. Bumbuhclaat!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:23:52 

What an over!

Wasim avoids the hattrick but then 4 dot balls to conclude the over! A double-wicket maiden! Khary Pierre in patois land!

24/3 after 4.

 
natty_forever 2024-09-16 02:24:42 

In reply to voiceofreason

Nice try. Not one patois speaker has shat on himself!

 
Logic 2024-09-16 02:25:12 

In reply to voiceofreason

Instead of running up to bowlers confusing their head with his thoughts when their captain already gave his advise Billings should try working on his own game

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:26:35 

ABF will do well to get this score. Noor Ahmad is a big bowler and he is following up on Khary's success.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:28:26 

Greaves bamboozled. Big time setup. Classic bowl dong that.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:28:26 

In reply to Logic
Yeah saw that. They probably took away the gloves so he could focus on his batting. Well that did not work this game and then Jahmar got a duck!

 
natty_forever 2024-09-16 02:28:37 

Not enough Jamaicans.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:29:29 

As I said based on Khary Pierre's success it now makes Noor's job easier! Greaves joins the procession to the pavillion!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:31:16 

This large fan turnout deserves a win. SLK all the way!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:32:34 

Now Chase in the bizness! They playing matchups here! Offspinner takes out the only leftie in the top order! Wasim goes! 28/5 ABF we have a problem!

 
Chrissy 2024-09-16 02:32:49 

In reply to natty_forever

Dis done
28/5 from 6

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:33:13 

Duncyness on display. Crowd messing with the Falcons mental game?

 
Drapsey 2024-09-16 02:33:21 


This Falcons team make cricket look hard.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:34:57 

Block out 20...and score the runs. 7 an over dimwits. Chook and run with the odd boundary.

 
WIForever 2024-09-16 02:35:58 

In reply to Drapsey

Chanders did make batting look difficult.

 
PalsofMine 2024-09-16 02:36:32 

cmon Shamar. Make a match of it.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:41:39 

Springer should have been out off the final delivery of Noor's last over but nobody detected the faint edge.

38/5 after 8.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:42:33 

Can Green and Springer stitch together a Pship here and make a game of this?

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:46:33 

Aljo to bowl the 10th. Can he break this budding partnership? 18 from 20 so far.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:48:07 

Nice Bumper by Aljo. Springer jumping!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 02:51:52 

Just 4 off the over!

50/5 after 10.

103 to win off 10 still gettable but the loss of wickets is an issue. Still to bat Allen, Primus , Amir and Pittman so yes some big hitting to come. Far from over!

 
Drapsey 2024-09-16 03:08:04 

In reply to voiceofreason

Springer should have been out off the final delivery of Noor's last over but nobody detected the faint edge.

Strategy, VOR, strategy.

Springer is 17 off 24 balls, why would anyone want to get him out?

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:13:55 

76/5 after 14. Time to go for it ABF. RRR now edging on 13.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:15:24 

In reply to Drapsey

Point taken. At the end of the day, wickets mean more pressure on the new man. ABF really have to utilised Fabian well.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:17:01 

Ok Shamar take a break!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:22:59 

Nasty collision oh no --- Aljo and Wiese collided. Wiese may have gotten the worse of the exchange although Aljo got hit over the head with his elbow. Oh yes that was a 4444 much needed.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:24:54 

Springer run out by Green who sold him up the river of no return! Could be best for ABF as that Pship was going nowhere. Springer 24 off 32.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:27:07 

95/6 after 16. Green gets his highest CPL score 37 off 30b. He will need another 37 off less to make a fist of this!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:27:46 

Wiese to bowl the 17th. 4444 Green low full toss dispatched!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:31:29 

105/6 after 17.


48 off 18 balls. Fabien and Green will have to explode!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:37:22 

Green's valiant effort comes to an end. 48 off 37 b. Noor 2/13 from 4. He will enjoy TNT and Guyana conditions!

108/7 after 18.

Fabien gone! brilliant catch by Chase! Match is done but probably was long before this dismissal with 5 wickets in the PP.

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:39:48 

444 primus off the edge! Still 40 off 9.


6666 Primus !

34 from 8. Just too late!

 
voiceofreason 2024-09-16 03:46:03 

Wiese applies the finishing touches with the ball as he did with the bat. Should be the MOM.

Kings win by 26 runs and now jump to 2nd and now have a positive NRR.
ABF season albeit still mathematically in it they will need to beat both TKR and GAW and hope that the top 4 falter big in their remaining games. Highly improbable.
