    <p>I had 10,400 after the first 3, and then i got a fucking black screen! cheating game. Apparently my random stab in the dark (literally) was on an entirely different continent. So i got 12,500-odd off 4 turns. </p>

    <p>That's pretty cool though</p>

    <p>A property on the market in Marlborough could be every backyard cricketer's dream.</p>
    <p>Known as the Bankhouse, the Waihopai Valley property&nbsp;features a pavilion overlooking a full-scale cricket pitch, built to international standards.</p>
    <p>Bayleys Marlborough rural property specialist Kurt Lindsay said one of the former owners, Greg Olliver, was fanatical about cricket.</p>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/a/1/g/x/p/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1a1csg.png/1456526239203.jpg" title="" alt="1456526239203.jpg"><div>

    </div>
    <p>"His dream was to hold an international cricket match there," he said.</p>
    <p>&nbsp;</p>
    <p>It was thought the Bankhouse homestead was built in the&nbsp;late 19th century,&nbsp;with the pitch and pavilion added&nbsp;around&nbsp;2008.</p>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/a/1/g/x/x/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1a1csg.png/1456526239203.jpg" title="" alt="1456526239203.jpg"><div>

    <p>The pavilion had a&nbsp;commercial kitchen,&nbsp;team changing rooms and showers.</p>
    <p>Lindsay said he believed only amateur games had been played there.</p>
    <p>The 57-hectare property, which was&nbsp;one of the original sheep runs in Marlborough, was once owned by the third speaker of the New Zealand House of Representatives, Sir David Monro.</p>
    <div><img src="http://www.stuff.co.nz/content/dam/images/1/a/1/g/x/r/image.related.StuffLandscapeSixteenByNine.620x349.1a1csg.png/1456526239203.jpg" title="" alt="1456526239203.jpg"><div>
    <p>The historic Bankhouse homestead in the Waihopai Valley.</p>
    </div>
    <div>&nbsp;</div>
    </div>
    <p>Marlborough historian John Orchard said it&nbsp;would have been a grand mansion in its day, fitted out with expensive furnishings with room for servants.&nbsp;</p>
    <p>But the buildings were&nbsp;in need of restoration.</p>
    <p>The property was owned by Winegrowers of Ara Ltd, a subsidiary of the Todd Corporation.</p>
    <p>Todd Property managing director Evan Davies said the company decided to list the property after selling its nearby&nbsp;vineyard&nbsp;to wine company&nbsp;Indevin.</p>
    <p>​It had owned the Bankhouse&nbsp;since 2008 and nobody had lived in the homestead during that time,&nbsp;Davies said.</p>
    <p>As well as the cricket pitch, the site&nbsp;also featured a large wetlands area.</p>
    <p>Lindsay said this was one of the largest privately-owned wetlands in Marlborough and it would make a good hunting spot for duck shooters.</p>
    <p>The property had a Marlborough District Council rateable valuation of $1.5 million but Lindsay said he expected this to be exceeded by tenders.</p>
    <p>Tenders closed on&nbsp;March 18 and there was already some interest, he said.</p>

    Just got my best score of 13678 with one within 3km, did another and got 5000 and everything was in the Americas, so picking Spain and a Greek Island didn't help....
