Musical chairs on the leaderboard, but no-one challenging for the top spot as yet.

Stands coming up on the rails. Has Red seen him coming?

I'm going to write to the ACB and demand that my players who aren't playing are picked (to hell with international duty) and that the ones who are playing play better.

It's not too much to ask.

Was looking to win Aussie domestic FL after being second in past two Big Bash FL's with FTS keeping me in 2nd spot by winning both Big Bash FL's iirc. With Red and FTS ahead , i don't see a chance to win this time as well.

Terrible round of matches

player scores for matches 13 and 14

0 Sayers (SA)
0 Dunk (Tas)
14 Paine (Tas)

everybody else NR

I thought it never rained in Australia, and the constant beating down of the sun, boiling everyone's heads, was the reason for the Aussie psyche

I'll update the leader board when some actual cricket next takes place

Being in desperate straits as I am. I think it's cruel to make me wait for my 14 points.

apologies to SP. Both he and I thought that Michael Klinger was a SA player, but I've just noticed that he's actually a WA player. A quick check back through the WA matches, and he has played in all of them, accruing 117 points in the process. I'll add them in when I compile the leaderboard later today.

still all to play for - 7 matches left and only a 300 point gap

just for reference, I'm away on a Rhine cruise next Friday, for a week. It means, sadly that I won't be around for the final match, and the final calculations, so you'll all have to wait a week, I'm afraid (shockingly unprofessional of me, I know). Unlikely to affect the winner, although there might be some movement for the minor places to keep the interest going.

Just so that everyone is aware, the Sheffield Shield FL starts just as I return, so have a think about your teams, and I'll set the thread up either over the weekend, or early next week, and then I'll get organised when I get back on the 31st Oct.

800 runs scored for the loss of only 4 wickets in the Tasmania/Queensland clash

If 20 wickets had fallen for 200 runs in 20 overs a side, the pitch inspectors would have been brought in. Not sure why they never get involved when batsman can seemingly flay the ball anywhere they like at will, but they don't seem to.

Whatever happened to a fair contest between bat and ball?

I'll update tomorrow when match 18 has been completed
