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
South Australia elected to bat first, anticipating that the wicket would degrade in the coming days.. The Victorian bowlers got the most out of a slightly tricky pitch, but a decent partnership (92) between J Darling and JC Reedman gave the hosts something bright to take out of the first day's action.

J Darling 80
AH Christian 3-45; JV Saunders 3-54; WW Armstrong 3-56

Things looked good for Victoria at 206-5, but an almighty collapse saw them leave the crease without another run scored. JPF Travers took a hat-trick to end the innings with catches to deep mid-wicket and fine leg, with an LBW shout for the last man.

Second Innings
The opening pairing of CB Jennings and FT Hack were finished over just two overs, and two runs, on the board, but J Darling again led the way, this time with help from C Hill, N Claxton, and once again JC Reedman. South Australia looked favourites to take victory, but were still hoping for some additional help from the pitch.

SA 222 + 397
VIC 206
J Darling 167; C Hill 62; JC Reedman 50*
JV Saunders 4-112

Victoria also enjoyed a more spirited second innings, with the main threats putting up solid scores. They just lacked someone to take the game and make it theirs, but PA McAlister was bowled out for the second time in the match.

SA 222 + 397
VIC 206 + 322
PA McAlister 79; WW Armstrong 60; VS Ranford 55
LR Hill 4-73; N Claxton 1-20

South Australia wins by ninety-one runs.
