About M.E. myself and I

Eastbourne, East Sussex, United Kingdom
I have been an M.E. sufferer for a long time now, but sports replay gaming is an easy hobby for me to enjoy. Originally from Canvey Island, Essex, I was introduced to replay gaming a few years ago, leading to my first purchase: Cricket World. Most sports I share will be common, but there are some more obscure replays thrown in. Thank you for visiting and I hope you enjoy your stay. Feel free to say hello! - Chris

First Innings
A Shaky start left New South Wales pleased with their decision to put in Victoria to bat first, but the home side soon recovered and took the score from 15-3 to 260-5 on their way to a good tally.


VIC 374
PA McAlister 168; CE McLeod 65
J Marsh 4-126; A McBeath 3-109


No one batter was responsible for heroics and that was the difference between the sides halfway through, leaving Victoria happy with their lot.


VIC 374
NSW 335
RA Duff 74; H Donnan 50
CE McLeod 4-66


Second Innings
Victoria lost what consistency they had and stumble towards an unsecure lead. J Worrall (1 & 1) and H Trumble (0 & 1) were guiltiest of not performing up to standard.


VIC 374 + 256
NSW 335
CE McLeod 70; H Graham 68
WP Howell 4-52; J Marsh 4-93

New South Wales were on the ropes on a couple of occasions: 164-7 and 233-9 as they chased 296 for the win. It was a nailbiting finish as they needed a sixth day to find a result, but a brilliant innings from JJ Kelly and the eleventh man J Marsh (16*) gave the visitors victory.


VIC 374 + 256

NSW 335 + 296-9
JJ Kelly 97*; MA Noble 52
H Trumble 5-99

New South Wales wins by one wicket
