it may be the heart of the NRL and AFL season in australia... but its cricket season here in korea....
3 matches in... and the ANZIKs are sitting on a mediocre 1 win 2 loss....
our first match against the sri lankans was obviously tough... getting the winter rust out, as well have losing many players from the previous season, and needed time to gel together with the new guys.... bowlers couldnt find a consistent line, and in the end, we got thumped...
2nd match was a total turnaround.... bowlers were great, and we got the opposition out for a cheap score and chased it down with plenty to spare....
on the back of that powerful win, we entered the 3rd match yesterday with alot of confidence.... missing our captain, our top order batting was also missing.... our bowlers once again had the opposition in a hole at 6 for 40-ish... but they still ended up posting 116... which we fell short by about 4 runs....
obviously, it's our team batting that needs improvement.... i myself am only averaging 6 runs, so its time to get down early and hit the nets before the game.... its not often the bowlers are going to dismiss the opposition for less than 120....
anyways... cricket in korea.... it definitely good being around a group of aussies and kiwis to mingle and talk about the rugby, cricket, etc.... sometimes its hard talking to koreans about state of origin... hehe
