Title: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Sunday, March 15, 2009, 20:28:25 The one and only 20/20 match is about 3/4 of the way through and I'm reminded why Test Cricket is immeasurably better. Steve Davies topscored for us with 27 or so, Gareth sodding Batty is in the team.
A few thoughts: - Why isn't Napier in our 20/20 team - Amjad Khan? In 20/20? The guy is a free hit fest waiting to happen. - I really don't care about this stuff at all, which is a shame as Cricket seems to be going that way. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Reg Smeeton on Sunday, March 15, 2009, 20:31:58 The England selectors/backroom staff, really seem to have no idea, what to do with 20/20.
Mind you it doesn't help when the home town ump gives your star batsman the finger, when he backs away showing all three and is hit 6 inches outside the line. :) Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Sunday, March 15, 2009, 20:33:50 I'll be honest, I only switched it on 5 minutes ago as I forgot it was on, I'm guessing this was Pietersen?

Yep...TBF to Norman Malcolm...he didn't give Colly, when he was hit plum, half way up middle. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Sunday, March 15, 2009, 20:36:10 Oh dear Ammy, that was...poor.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: sonicyouth on Sunday, March 15, 2009, 21:14:26 our t20 record is pretty embarrassing. fortunately (and quite rightly) i don't think anyone is terribly interested in it as a competition...

Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 13:46:16 Powell is approaching his half century in wides after two overs, 6 in 3 from the Windies.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 15:10:06 Shah and Bopara are at the wicket. Odds on the next wicket being a run out anyone?

I'll go for LBW. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Scot Munroe on Friday, March 20, 2009, 18:48:33 i realised this was on until an hour ago.

Heartbreak ;) Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: sonicyouth on Friday, March 20, 2009, 19:40:57 Gareth fucking Batty, I ask you. gareth fucking batty indeed - how shit is his odi record? 4 @ 73.50 - that's how shit. even kp has better stats off as an off spinner Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: michael on Friday, March 20, 2009, 19:42:54 KP can rip the skin off of it
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Mexicano Rojo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 20:03:18 next 5-10 overs vital.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: nevillew on Friday, March 20, 2009, 20:07:26 KP can rip the skin off of it There's no kp in team Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 21:28:51 Harmison goes for 26 off an over and then drops a dolly which goes for four. Poor chap isn't having the best of days.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 21:41:09 Ramdin gone...this is getting interesting now.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 21:43:14 Oh what the fuck? It's just getting to be a really tense ending and they've called it for bad light? Cricket does enjoy shooting itself in the foot.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 20, 2009, 21:45:57 The Windies took the light while they were behind on D/L, thinking they were ahead. Oh hahahahaha.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: DMR on Friday, March 20, 2009, 21:48:22 Hehehe. Stupid Windies.

Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Saturday, March 21, 2009, 09:52:04 Ha ha and there was me thinking such comedy could only come from us. I guess I was wrong.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Sunday, March 22, 2009, 13:06:36 Second game, we're unchanged so Harmison gets away with bowling a 25 run over.
Baker in for the truly rubbish Powell for Windies. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, March 27, 2009, 16:23:57 Eng 52-5
Dearie me. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, March 27, 2009, 16:29:19 Bucknor has just given Colly, to one missing the leg stump by 6 inches.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, March 27, 2009, 17:06:48 Fuck me we're shit.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Iffy's Onion Bhaji on Friday, March 27, 2009, 17:51:29 We've been shit for years Reg. Wake up man.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Scot Munroe on Friday, March 27, 2009, 18:19:58 117 all out. Disgrace England. 5 or 6 players out to pull or hooks shots.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: axs on Friday, March 27, 2009, 18:30:24 TMS inbox: "The partnership between Mascarenhas and Extras looks quite promising. We should move Extras higher up the batting order."
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Reg Smeeton on Friday, March 27, 2009, 19:57:23 We've been shit for years Reg. Wake up man. Yeah but there's shit and shit...they should drop that Boycott. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Scot Munroe on Saturday, March 28, 2009, 08:52:56 Chris Gayle knock was quality. He is the coolest guy in cricket
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Scot Munroe on Friday, April 3, 2009, 22:02:21 freddie hat-trick. 5-19, wi 140-9 chasing 170+
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nemo on Friday, April 3, 2009, 22:03:05 Freddie's yorkers are sublime.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Scot Munroe on Friday, April 3, 2009, 22:07:36 all over. England victory. 3-2. Peak.
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Nick Bamosomi on Friday, April 3, 2009, 23:08:14 Freddie's yorkers are sublime. They are - he had an excellent match with the ball - pity his batting is under par Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: michael on Friday, April 3, 2009, 23:35:20 Just learnt that the big man took a Michelle, and a hat-trick to boot.
Fred gets into the team purely on the strength of his bowling. But when he hits it, it stays hit. I'd warrant that after the Ashes he'll retire from Test cricket and concentrate on the short form. Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Boeta on Saturday, April 4, 2009, 10:17:02 how good are we
Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: Boeta on Saturday, April 4, 2009, 10:18:20 kind of ironic how england's two biggest whingers (kp and harmlessone) and their most unprofessional player (fred) finally play to their potential in the last game of the winter. shame about the previous 15 games
still, how good are we Title: Re: One Day Series (With added 20/20) Post by: michael on Wednesday, July 15, 2009, 11:42:13 Just learnt that the big man took a Michelle, and a hat-trick to boot.
