Another month and another game
There's nothing new from this side, other than the cool jerseys that have lime green stripes!!!!
Ok so here are some updates.
1) TJC HAS ITS CRICKET NET.
Well, yes its true. It may not look like much if you have actually seen it, but its really fun to play in. =) The wicket is a bit slow, and the ball does kick up a lot, but heck, its a net. =)
2) TJC Cricket has a brilliant bowling line up! =)
Yea, let me try to say this the same way Andrew Miller will on cricinfo.
TJC Cricket is led by a fine fast bowling quartet. Nikunj and Balaji open it with the new ball, and their distinct actions make them lethal. Nikunj, with his side arm action swings it away from the batsmen beating them with sheer pace, while balaji, with his new and improved bowling action, gets up to a decent pace while swinging it in. Vinoth the first change, just blows batsmen away. Any bat that gets on ball is due to sheer luck. =) Harish is the workhorse of the 4, and completely plugs one end.
TJC also has access to 2 decent spinners, one off spinner Ashwin, who might not turn much but has good line and length, and Anantha who can get the ball to turn on glass. Not to forget, our bowling line up also includes an accurate lefty in the form of Devang.
Yay. back to normal Raghav.
4) TJC ALSO HAS A GOOD BATTING LINE UP
Here's the probable top 6 batsmen:
Raghav, Balaji, Anantha, Nikunj, Harish, Vinoth.
Nuff said.
5) TJC JUST OWNED VJC.
Haha. sorry Victorian, couldnt help it. It was a good game for our boys, who played their hearts out against a lacklustre opponent who never really showed up today. playing on a really small pitch (BTSS, nuff said) VJ struggled to make 122 (mainly due to a lot of extra, the bowlers had a crappy run up). TJC then chased it down in 12 over, with Anantha going crazy and hitting 8 freaking 6ers. wth. I shall stop now.
Well thats all for now, our tournament starts next friday so ill update again then.
Cheers!
