    I think there were a couple off the spinner aswell as the 2 off me and the easy chance off your skipper early on. there were a couple of other good chances dropped. it's a frustrating team to bowl for

    That's cricket at Junior B level However, when someone goes on to 83* and he's dropped while still in single figures, it does hurt.

    9 ducks and the lead Nepalise bowler gets 10 wickets .

    Yes, Bob, you certainly added to the overall height of my victims

    They did well in getting them 206 all out, but they were something like 156-8. I think the lads missed Porterfield, can not believe I am saying that.

    they had them 40/3 and let it slip, there isn't enough back up to the bowling. the openers have made good breakthroughs in most of the games but the change bowlers haven't done enough

    the leinster development 11 lost to scotland u19's today by 26 runs

    The Leinster Development XI went down by 26 runs in the opening match of their North East of England Tour against the Scotland Under 19 side.

    In a 35 over game, two wickets from Mark Dwyer helped restrict Scotland to 132 for 4, with Scott Galloway making an unbeaten 40 and Calvin Burnett a well composed 34.

    In reply, 69 from Andrew Balbirnie and 17 from Shane Getkate looked to have set the Irish on course for an easy win. However a dramatic collapse saw them falter to 106 all out in 23.3 overs, to give the Scots an unlikely 26 run win. The bowling heroes for the Scots were Richard Lamb (3-15), Andrew Brock (3-22) and Willie Rowan (2-18).

    Scotland Under 19's 132-4 (35 overs, S Galloway 40*, C Burnett 34, M Dwyer 2-23) beat Leinster Development XI 106 all out (23.3 overs, A Balbirnie 69, S Getkate 17, R Lamb 3-15, A Brock 3-22, W Rowan 2-18) by 26 runs.

    We were all out for 55 against Civil Service then bowled them out for 30 However, I was involved in a run out, later on then ran myself out and later on again dropped a catch. Cricket: don't you just love it.

    As for your run of ducks, just go out and have a swipe at the first ball next time and hope for the best.

    They were missing their Bohs contingent against us. Different proposition when they are playing.

    p.s. You didn't have a swipe at the ball I bowled you with. Just watched it loop on to the stumps like a rabbit in headlights

    What, does that mean he has followed Ed Joyce in declaring for England? Cos I hadn't heard anything about that!
