Anand:
Excellent match on saturday, we have done well in both the matches and kept our winning percentage was raising against the chartered team,
the first match against chartered was excellent team work, good bowling and good batting from Jag,Vijay ,Shankar,all of them played well and ensured the win.
Second match was also an excellent team work, we gave some runs bowling first, but there was some good batting from siva, raj, shatish, rajamani .. excellent batting from raj who increased the runrate of the team, welldone raj some good batting on saturday and sunday...
On sunday it was a disappointing performance, we had a 100% winning record against muthu team before, but we lost that momentum, anyhow we will bounce back stronger, the main reason was failure in middle order batting, and we came back well by taking some wickets, but poor fielding and some drop catches lost us the match, so come on guys we have to burn the cylinders next week, we have to win.. i am hunger to score runs and win...
Come on...

Siva:
Satisfying performance on saturday and worrying performance on sunday continues.

The last 5 sunday, we lost 4 matches. Though we play with full strength. 3 against jaya team and one against muthu team.

We have all out 9 times out of 37 matches. this is almost 25%. Every 1 match out of 4 matches, we are all out. That is only for 20 overs. No LBW is there.

this is not a sign of good team.

I can not understand how come we can give 6 wkts to a bowler in 4 overs. We lost the match to one bowler.
we need to pull up our shocks and improve our batting. It does not matter, which down you play. Last week, we have 5 overs remaining, which is 30 balls , almost same as the balls which opener will get.

Please try to play straight as much as you can, does not matter even if it is dot ball
Please try to play in bat rather than get beaten by bowler
Please try to not get bowled

I hope we can improve our team's batting with practise in nets.
