Fantasy Cricket 2017 – Week Six (by Ian Hewson)

Fantasy Cricket – Week 6

Three games, three wins for Wellington last weekend. Aks Latifi remains top but Ian Hewson, who is currently the leader for Manager of the Month (fix!), remains in pursuit, as does ‘Littlefinger’ Alex Sparks.

Last week saw some good use of transfers to get rid of your deadwood – if you want to see your team and the current player ratings, email Ian Hewson at idhewson@yahoo.co.uk.

It was a battle of the beards for top spot and, as usual, the majestic face-fuzz of Thom Trott came out on top with a complete all-round performance – 78* with the bat, 3 wickets and a run out. Unsurprisingly it was a high scoring week overall with three wins.

Overall

The ‘Sampson of Beards’ Thom Trott also takes over the top spot, with Luke Desave relegated to second. Oli Beale and Neil Hendy also got into triple figures, while Jake the Snake and Ian Hewson enter the nervous 90s – a feeling that will likely never be replicated on the cricket field.
