Probably a question of whether
Alfie- Stokes/Cummins/Broad
can hold off
Red- Starc/Cummins/Labuschagne
and
Junior- Labuschagne/Starc/Moeen
given all three have
Smith and Root

Hmm. I hear the footsteps of a charging Starc-powered Red pair at my heels ...
Think I might need a Stokes Innings to save this

Marnus refusing to contribute anything probably means you are safe so not much to worry about I think

Mo's a bit of a deadweight at the moment.

I'll do this tomorrow. But I think Starc has scored best out of the key players. But will it be enough to sink Alfie?

Diligent has a four man team, which I think is unique in this FL.

Commiserations to Mike on the wooden spoon.
Previous winner Durhamfootman gets to take his pick from the box of Celebrations. Prize has been scaled down due to shrinkflation.
And Alfie will keep the commemorative FL 'urn' until we meet again down under in two year's time. Though the 'urn' never actually leaves my pool room.
Nine points in it. The difference between a Jonny Bairstow blinder or another fumble.
And that gentlemen is the difference between winning and nowhere.
So goodnight. Don't forget to take all your waste home with you.

Well 2956 is definitely more than 2947.
