I've also got 3,4 or 5 players involved in the Derby v Northants game which has had 2 days rained off - that's wrecking my team

me too

ATM, I'm being slaughtered by what looks like a 10 man team from brendy. 4 of my players have returned scores of 0 and 0 for runs and wickets, another 5 and 0. I think only one of my 2 players in the Der/Nor is likely to play, but if both play then I'll lose 50% of my current wicket count and a seventh of my runs

put this one down as one to forget, I think

I think I've got a full 11, exactly.

I've not been following your scoring, but I'm surprised to hear that I'm slaughtering you given that I'm missing so many bowlers (mainly through being left out), I think I've only got Berg and Shahzad playing (plus the odd part timer) - and neither of them have exactly filled their boots with wickets.

Not sure there's going to any play in the Northants team at all. So presumably with no toss having taken place, all players will be treated as having not played?

Yes, given that the match has been abandoned without a ball being bowled I think it's fair to assume all derby and northants players will be a dnp.

I'll have to check but I think I am struggling to field a full team.

Yep, a 10 man team for me but some good performances in there which may counteract that.

Will try to do the update tomorrow or Friday, although the next Matchweek is not til the following weekend.

For the next matchweek I have only 9 players who qualify and one of them will certainly not play and possibly two more, so I've a long wait to get stuffed by whoever is my opponent.

perhaps I've missed somebody.... either way, before today I had 4 wickets to your 7 or 8, and 300+ to your 500+ runs.

and a quick check of today's scores suggests that you have well in excess of 800 runs to my 350ish. even allowing for the fact that I took some wickets today my 12 won't upset your massive advantage in runs...... and you've got another player somewhere that I haven't spotted yet

What's the all-time low for runs scored by a team in a CFM match?

I must be a contender for the record this round.

That does appear to be particularly low!

Never in doubt!

Could be a crucial win in the title race as well.

turns out that that player was Gareth Berg
