Cricket-Match-Special ... A forum for discussion

so far I have 7 wins out of 7.

Berdych and Harrison play each other, which seems like a bit of a cock up on my part

11 out of 12 go through. If I had checked the draw I could have given myself a chance to avoid the one that slipped away

Think I got 11 through too. Karlovic let me down.

Looks like I've got my first five R2 matches all still to come tonight.

Update after first round:

Presumably something wrong in your formula, Ian - if the three of us only have 10 points?

I take that back. Just seen the rules. Clearly I've never taken more than 10 players through to R2 before!!!

I hadn't spotted that either, Brendy

r2 and I lose another player to one of my own again. Zverev (the good one) and Berdych both crash out, which is bad news for me. max of 8 into r3, which feels sloppy

Well I appear to have lost four of my 11 already, and am seemingly in the process of losing two more over the next hour. It was nice whilst it lasted.

make that 2 as Donaldson bites the dust

at the moment I have 3 definites Edmund, Querrey and Pouille; 2 strong favourites in RF and RN; no idea where Cilic has disappeared to, but hopefully he's still around and I can't find Young anywhere, so going on current form he's probably playing Cilic

feels like everything is falling apart

Is this a normal feeling in a tennis FL?

it seems that Young is playing Monfils later, and Cilic has already beaten Mayer to progress to r3

I reckon I could be down to 6 by tomorrow

Monfils has already won the first set. All square half way through the second.

Bad move to bring in Dimitrov

Zverev, Tsonga and Kyrgios already gone, now Federer is 2-1 behind!

Feels like it's been an odd tournament

unpredictable!

5 only, into r3

very disappointing
