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

Melbourne Cricket Ground
20th-21st, 23rd-24th November 1903

Lineups:

First Innings
Victoria won the toss and chose to take advantage of a solid wicket. The home side put on a masterclass, led as they were by the opening partnership of PA McAlister and W Bruce (165), with WW Armstrong joining the former for another good partnership (129). Victoria had their foot down almost the whole way, and declared soon after lunch on day two, looking to keep South Australia at bay.

VIC 588-7 dec.
PA McAlister 160; WW Armstrong 160; M Ellis 92*; W Bruce 80
RBC Rees 164-3

South Australia's reply was rather sporadic and came well short of avoiding the follow-on that Victoria imposed upon them as the hosts bowled well.

VIC 588-7 dec.
SA 308
JC Reedman 99*; AE Evans 69
FB Collins 3-51; GHS Trott 3-60

Second Innings
Victoria kept their impressive performance going right to the end as they broke South Australia's spirit to win handsomely.

VIC 588-7 dec.
SA 308 + 151
N Claxton 43
FJ Laver 7-52

Victoria win by an innings and one-hundred-and-twenty-nine runs
