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

SA 187

JJ Ferris 49; EH Leak 45
AE Trott 7-48

Victoria would have hoped for more of an advantage heading into the second innings, but they too struggled to cope with the pitch.

SA 187
VIC 286

J Worrall 126
G Giffen 3-77

Second Innings

Everyone scored this time for South Australia, but it looked like it would be a formality for Victoria to take the win, needing only 160 runs to win.

SA 187 + 258
VIC 286

A final wicket stand of 52 was not enough though as Bruce's efforts go to waste.

SA 187 + 258
VIC 286 + 134

W Bruce 62*
E Jones 4-47; G Giffen 3-46

South Australia win by 25 runs
