PDCA

[whufc]

I imagine though the PDCA couldn't afford to lose the LO comps. In fact they make up the majority of teams these days and are arguably the bread winner for the comp.

Then become a one day comp.

Fear of losing sides is an interesting argument - with Churches gone, there isnt a lot of variation with options - B&LCA, ATCA, A&SCA, Hills.. clubs aren't going to ATCA if they dont have turf, ASCA dont play one day cricket and Barossa is also mostly two day cricket isn't it?

Reality is if people wish to play cricket, unless they want to travel halfway across the state, they'll play the format that the association sets.. and clubs really have no choice but to plan/recruit for that format.

I still think extend the current format in Grade 3-5 down into the LO grades - make it 5x 2 dayers and 10x 1 dayers, and promotion relegation.. heck even if you drop the over requirement right at the bottom to 60 overs in a day - what's an extra 20 overs in the field going to hurt anyone? Surely clubs can field sides for a measly 5x 2 day games.

That's the PDCA these days anyway isn't it. Atco to Athestone on the weekend. Trips to the inner city, Dublin, north haven.

I would think ATCA if allowing hard wicket and A&SCA would be considered genuine competitors.

ATCA - If they end up having the hard wicket comp, yeah.
ASCA - They play 2 day cricket in all grades.

Adam strikes the ball very well too, genuine A Grade standard, used to frustrate the hell out of me.

Apparently so, scorebooks didn't add up.. thought they'd past and hadn't.. Word is both innings didn't add up, and result will remain a draw coz well they should've been better at scoring haha!

That is poor at 1 fa, it's a no brainer. Captain's error.

There is also a version of events that PV thought they were chasing a lower target, and passed.. realised after it wasn’t the case and actually was under the target - Eyre Royals claim the win, Vista compromise for a draw, captains agreed.. then PV disputed the result given they had 9 wickets in hand and half the overs remaining haha.

Live scoring helps these problems.

That's why you establish the real target once the first innings is complete. If PV were scoring in the second dig as they approached the target there should be ensuring all is correct.

Once they found out they hadn't won why didn't they go back out to hit the required extra runs. Wouldn't be the first time teams recommenced an innings to complete the game!

In this instance two of the fielding side would've lit their durries and opened their cans as three others dashed for the car to pack a cone so the captain says "ahh, just give two runs to Smith and put them on to Jim's bowling, he bowled crap anyway so an extra 2 aint gonna kill him".

Common sense needs to kick in at this level.

The amount of times I used to get lower grade scorebooks and they didn't add up so I just added a run here and there and tinkered bowling figures - no one was ever any the wiser.

Generally I just tried to keep the runs scored the same and then add/take from the bowlers - they don't notice as much, they only care about wickets.

Once error was realised the PV Captain had every right to go back out and resume play. No matter how many durries were lit and the state of the mats.

ER the fielding team only had to go out into the field with one player as long as they hadn't bowled the last over to lose the game. As B Eagle says PV capt had every right or claim game as as ER would have conceded.

Jonesy rules with an iron fist.

According to Law 16.9 and 16.9.1, "the umpires shall order play to resume". The captains are effectively the umpires in this case. 16.9.2 seems to apply that the umpires can call "the necessary corrections to the scores and to the result". Additionally, 16.10 "Once the umpires have agreed with the scorers the correctness of the scores at the conclusion of the match" "– the result cannot thereafter be changed." Therefore, unless extra information can come to light, the result must stand.

Sounds like captains must've agreed to the scores - Para Vista entered the results as well, so perhaps they agreed to a draw, then realised after the fact that was a silly move?

Oh well, reality is with a 5x team grade, it's unlikely the result will cost PV a finals spot. Play on.

Week later and another draw for Eyre Royals

What are the odds!?!

[The Bedge]

Dublin declared their second innings 0/0? Why not just enforce the follow on?

By declaring 0/0 you give the opposition incentive to try and chase. Enforcing the follow on means they can't win and will bat defensively from ball 1.

Going early.

Grand Final preview in div 1 this week EP vs Salisbury West.

A spark lit over the weekend on social media as well......

Bowling depth is probably an issue at EP, Looking at Virginias batting scorecard on the weekend, surely a different result in their match if bascombe and warren bat?
