h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Another mediocre week for the Over and Outs has seen their lead cut once again, with Frenchbean's Down and Unders leapfrogging the Green and Golds into second. A few weeks ago AndyG looked unassailable but, although as wobbles go it's only a small one, the door is open now for a late surge from anyone in the top three.

Below them, a great week for Dedfordshire - assisted by two matches for Somerset and great performances from White and Caddick in both - 76 points fires them above the pack into fourth. Organcheese and Jules' Kronies both had another good week, showing what might have been with a little more consistency through the season, while Reuben Spiring's Helicopter return to type and the Spent Kitfires have surely ended their title hopes. The gap between all of these teams and the top places is not insurmountable, but it will take a couple of canny signings and a surge in form to close the gap.

The battle for the wooden spoon looks a two-horse race, with the Sticky Wikkits and Freddie and the Steamers over sixty points adrift at the bottom.

Special mention goes to Megachedda's performance this week, totalling a massive 63 points led by Gibson's ten wicket haul - not bad for one of the league's bottom-feeders.

I dont want anyone to think that im trying to sneak extra points in but i but i calculated my total as 70 points.

That's even more impressive, then! Can you tell me which player's score I got wrong? You'll find the scores I've given each player for the week at A20777592

Make it 68 points.6 points for Benkestein, 44 for Gibson(Doubled for captaincy)3 from John Maunders and i beleive croft got 15.

Knowing my mats ive got that wrong.

Math.

Benkenstein - 7 for his century
Maunders - 3 for his fifty
Croft - 16 (6 wickets in an innings = 13, 1 other wicket = 2, 1 catch = 1)
Gibson - 10 in an innings = 22, 2 other wickets = 4, one catch = 2 (double for captaincy) Total = 28

Gibson is a bowler, so he scores double for catches and runs, but not for wickets.

Trott also scored four and Adshead 2.

I make that 63

Note to self:Check scoring rules properly.

No problem, mate - I'd rather check if there is any doubt than not have it mentioned at all
