A long way to go yet - I expect the leader will change again tomorrow

Red Devil still leads, after Sussex briefly overtook after today's first game.

bad day today - I went from about 800th overall on cricinfo to 1,400th but I hung on to my lead in our little comp - 2 games to go ...

Red Devil still leads and will win the cricinfo competition. Can I catch sussex?

I'm clawing my way back up the table. If, I hadn't had that spell of picking up minus points in the middle, I might only be be 500 points behind Red

I'm up to about 650th overall on cricinfo - maybe I can break into the top 500!

I'm somehow 401st.

It's a good job you didn't enter the CMS league then, as otherwise I might not be winning! Although if I'd been chasing someone I would have picked a riskier team rather than playing it safe, so i may have been up there with you, or I may have been much further back

Rest assured, my points total would've be far less if I had entered the CMS league. I no doubt would have gone for more audacious selections like Seelaar of the Netherlands and Coulter-Nile from Australia.

Well done to Red Devil on a convincing win

The footman caught myself, but sussex held on for the runners up medal.

Thanks Dr

535th overall on cricinfo - not too bad. I wonder how many took part, at a guess maybe 10,000-20,000?
