The Showdown

November 20, 2013

Richard (Pin) Carrick vs Nick (Always humble) Brown.

The Key Stats

Richard Carrick
Height: 3 ft 11
Weight: 38Kg (when wet)

A flighty right hand bat that scores strongly and elegantly. Reminiscent of Mark Waugh with any ball on his legs being whipped away. Lightning quick on his feet enables his whippy bowling action that gets on the batsmen quicker than they expect.

Not the complete cricketer however as he has deficiencies with the short ball. Jumping to square leg in the past whilst letting out a terrifying war cry similar to the mating call of the Amazon Pigmy rat has had limited success and expect the opposition to find this weakness early.

Last Call (David Speed): If this punk thinks hes taking my spot as the loveable scrawny kid hes got another thing coming. I’m twice the talent at half the weight!!!

Nick Brown
Height 7Ft 3 (When Neck is extended)
Weight 145kgs

Who could forget this blokes last foray at the panthers. A golden duck on a hatrick ball and 0 for plenty. Dont let that fool you however as the kid has talent and comes off decent 2v2 form. A loping right hand bat his strength is definitely square of the wicket. With a huge wind up when he connects it goes. One of the best sledges in the business if you stand too close to his vile mouth you may actually catch something* Renound with his bowling as crushing toes from a great height. But rest assured batsmen, the only toes he crushes are his own with a brilliant John Howard impersonation.

Last Call (James Grady): The blokes a prick, I implore all fielders to drop catches off his bowling and run him out!!!!

*NBCCC cannot confirm what will be caught when standing close to NB.
