Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
ha ha yeah, i might of got a little sneaky look.
So who can tell whats going on with Wendouree, they could be in a bit of strife this week. They are by far the best team on paper but dont seem to be showing it yet. I guess its better to be in a bit of a slump now rather then later. But they still seem to keep winning.

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
Considering it only costs $50 to enter a team (plus a new pill and $40 for umpires) it's pretty disappointing. Surely even just for a bit of fun and an event that can draw a crowd a few more clubs would give it a go? This is why the 7's died in the arse, nobody wants to have any fun any more!
If my reading of the draw is right, would next weeks fixtures be BRCC V NAPS, Mt. CLEAR v WEND (being the highest ranked loser???)

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
I think the highest ranked winner plays the highest ranked loser. So it might be Redan V Wendouree and Naps V Mounties. I cant remember how many Mount Clear made but if Redan bowled Lucas out for 79, you would think they would be the highest ranked winner.

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
by percentage, wickets lost and runs for/against.
so it could be close between wendouree and haddon both lost 10 wickets and made shyt all runs.

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
I imagine that must be wat the draw will be. Surely they wouldnt pit naps and wendouree against each other again...but then again this is ballarat...
was very disappointing. First couple of years drew hundreds of people to the games as players and spectators and was a lot of fun. And those who played the other day would agree that it was good entertaining, laid back, fun cricket. At the end of the day thats wat it should be about.
Perhaps as a future thing, the BCA should advertise the event to the public, get them involved, make a big time out of it. Surely this would make them some money...

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
I know some clubs don't have all players available to play after work and therefore its a waste of time putting in a team full of 2's and 3's players and getting flogged. Also I know clubs know this event has been staged for a few years now but once the invitation is sent out to the clubs the BCA only give clubs 2 weeks notice to enter a team which isn't much notice

Re: Ballarat Cricket Association
Agreed Napisan, this isn't a quickly slapped together competition on the back of an idea from some big thinking association guru, they know it's coming around well in advance and despite the thoughts of the BCA us cricketers do have lives off the field and find it difficult to jag extra time to play in competitions like this. It's not easy to find a competitive team that are available to get to the ground at 5:30pm on a Tuesday night ready to go.
Surely next year the BCA could open up some lines of communication from all clubs to see why they aren't participating in competitions such as the 20/20 and what could be done to drum up some more interest. It's a fun format to play (especially for hacks like me) and it's entertaining for a crowd. Instead of finding new ways to fine clubs for pedantic and borderline pathetic issues BCA, how about doing something nice for us for a change and maybe making a bit on the side instead?

Techno4, follow this link http://results.cricketvictoria.com.au/Results/tabid/54/Default.aspx?orgid=18 and check through the BCA Division 1 and Division 4 results. I think they're the only 2 teams they have in the BCA District competition
