One Dayers Round 10: Nairobi Nuggets v Madrid Magic @ T.O.C.A

[Jolldo87]

VS

The return to the shorter form of the game sees the second place Magic playing against the third place Nuggets. A win for the Nuggets will put them back in the hunt for the top two spots whilst a win for the Magic will put them one step closer to playing in the finals. Last time these sides met Madrid had a large win so the Nuggets will be looking to get revenge infront of their home fans this time around.

Last Time they Met:

MADRID MAGIC         212       45.1 overs
NAIROBI NUGGETS      125       41.3 overs
   
Madrid Magic won by 87 runs
  
Man of the match: Dirk Kuyt

We are not favorites? Are you serious? We may have had a rough couple of games, but we are about to break loose! Breeno to ton up! DK 5 for 20

[breeno]

Doggies in 08 to get back to back Tonnes, and Tongs to finally fulfill the promise he has shown. A lasy 50+ from breeno will be handy And Dirk Kuyt to take at least 4 wickets!

Madrid by 60 runs.

One-dayers are back.

Time to dominate in this form aswell.

[Dirk Kuyt]

Nice to have some OD'ers back.

Tongs and Breeno will both make their debut in the shorter form of the game.

Will have to search back to the last OD'er that was played and check the team that played that one.

Looking for a solid contribution from everyone, if everyone plays well enough, we'll win. Simple as that.

Even the great man Bradman gets ducks mate! DOn't worry about getting a first ball, just means that you don't waste deliveries for the rest of us to smash!

Looking forward to my Debut guys, hoipefully I can build a solid innings for us and knock a few over late in the innings!

If D.K. is getting 4 I must be getting the other 6

[Kram81]

I'll try not to bowl my usual shite that I've dished up in this form of game.

Let's go Nuggets.

No change to the last one-day side. Won that game which was a while ago so our one-day skills may be a little rusty. Been on fire in the tests so let's transfer that form to the one-day arena.

Go Nugs!!
