Spent half an hour sifting through the photo thread and got a fair few players covered for future use on the website. Most of the pictures are of you and Stephen though, which is a bit disturbing.

Representing his country, I meant.

I already have, Geg, against Tasmania :p

But yeah, it's still great to be picked. Good luck to Fullerinho and Hancockius Maximus, too.

This is a particularly strong CW XI lineup and a typically weak Victorian team - should win by 10 wickets or 300+ runs.

Cricket Web XI vs Victoria
OD Tour match - at Ballarat

Nick Hancock and Nathan Hoy batted extremely impressively, adding 37 off 35 balls to carry the Cricket Web XI to a tight 3-wicket win over Victoria. In another game where the Cricket Web batsmen struggled to find form, the allrounders served to prevent embarrassment with the crucial stand.

Hoy started the game superbly with the ball. His opening spell suffered a couple of dropped catches and claimed 2 wickets to leave the Victorians uncertain at 2/49 in the 13th over. The rebuilding effort then kicked into gear, and a determined 59 from Aiden Blizzard was complemented by the strokeplay of David Hussey, as he scored 90 not out.

Batting with supreme confidence, Hussey was chiefly responsible for the 40 runs Victoria scored in the final 4 overs - with 13 off Patrick's 50th. Throughout the innings the Cricket Web XI catching was appalling, as six chances went down.

A target of 247 was hardly substantial, but the Webheads batted in a manner that defeat seemed unnervingly likely when Dinu DeSilva was bowled trying to heave Harwood to the legside. Then at 7/210, some 37 runs were required off the final 39 balls.

Calmly as ever, Hancock took two boundaries of the first 3 balls of the following Moss over. The strokeplay eased the tension for the tourists and kicked off a very thoughtful partnership on the way to a hard-fought victory.

Victoria 6-246 (50 overs)
Cricket Web XI 7-247 (49.2 overs)

Cricket Web XI won by 3 wickets.
Man of the Match: NS Hoy
