Cricket World Cup December Semi-Final 1 : Strikers vs Dragons

First topic message reminder :

Venue : The Lords
Time : 6:00 PM IST



The Strikers
The team with a dream run in CricSim. They won the T20 Boom and now are eyeing the CWC. The team has not lost a match in long while and will try and repeat the same performance today. Will the y continue with their winning streak ?

The Main Player

All eyes will once again focus on the Left handed duo of Wasim Akram and Chaminda Vaas who have impressed one and all with the bowling skills they have put on show.











Mystic Dragons
Well another team following in the foot-steps of the Strikers. They have fought really hard and made their way up to the Semi-Final stage which 6 other teams failed to do. Luck favored them once already when The Warriors couldn't qualify after loosing against the Dominators in a heated clash. Will Luck favor them again today on these grand occasion ?

The Main Player

This team has no one player who can be selected as the prime reason for it being here. The team has many bits and pieces players who in some way or other manage to score runs and pick Wickets. A very very flamboyant team this is in short.



Quotes by Players :

Aqi : The Strikers are in a good run and hopefully we will continue with this and bring home another cup.

Irshad : Learnt a lot from The Strikers and now it is the time to deliver it back.
