Cricket
 
Rajah's is broken and I want somewhere to talk about cricket. This will probably get no responses since you don't have a thread already but never mind.

Massive Summer ahead; the mickey mouse world 20/20 followed by the serious stuff, England v Australia.

Anyway right now England are about to lose to Holland. A team of amateurs. In our own tournament. Embarrassing really. I wouldn't care too much but now all the Indians will say 'YOU ONLY DONT LIKE 20/20 CAUSE YOU'RE RUBBISH AT IT'. No, we don't like it cause it's shit.

1_Pablo_Angel 06-05-2009 03:28 PM

Shocking bit of umpiring there. If you've got big lines to show where the wides are you really can't be giving them for deliveries 3 inches inside.

Miotch 06-05-2009 03:33 PM

Are you just going to talk to yourself then?

1_Pablo_Angel 06-05-2009 03:40 PM

I would have. But now you're here to keep me company :y:

Miotch loves his cricket.

Team Sheep 06-05-2009 04:01 PM

Hahahahahahaha

:(

Talk about folding under pressure. Missed 3 easy(ish) runouts in the last 2 overs, pathetic stuff.

Londoner 06-05-2009 04:28 PM

Fucking amazing game, shocking performance by england but equally good by netherlands, thats 20/20 for you.

1_Pablo_Angel 06-05-2009 04:47 PM

It'd be OK if one of their players hit a ridiculously good innings. But we just gave it away by collapsing utterly under a bit of pressure at the end.

Doesn't bode well at all.

Also what's the point in playing Key and then holding him down the order when you've left Mascarenhas out of the side?

Londoner 06-05-2009 04:56 PM

That's what i've been thinking, Key is fucking shite. Never liked him. And nowlook, he's let us down again. Some batsmen.

1_Pablo_Angel 06-05-2009 05:25 PM

Well to be fair I love Rob Key and his pudgey little face. But there's no point putting him in with 2 overs left. He's not that kind of batsman.

Londoner 06-05-2009 05:39 PM

I can't see the point of him being in 20/20 at all tbh.

Londoner 06-05-2009 05:40 PM

Also the bowling selection was questionable/the fielding positions.

I know that I'm not stupid. I support the team. I just found it hilarious and pitiful. :$

GD 06-05-2009 08:08 PM

Don't be hard on yourself son. We truly believe the grapes are sour.

Bad Company 06-05-2009 08:08 PM

We'll try follow your lead and lose to Scotland tonight.

Pete Cash 06-06-2009 03:50 AM

The ashes is where the action is :D

Bad Company 06-06-2009 04:09 AM

The Ashes is great. When England is competitive, which is once every 30 years.

Plus they get the first match in the ashes, bastards.

Bad Company 06-06-2009 07:16 AM

lol, 7 overs an innings for NZ v Scotland

Londoner 06-06-2009 07:21 AM

would've been 5 if they started at 12:30

Bad Company 06-06-2009 07:28 AM

Fucken stupid by the organisers doing back to back matches.

Bad Company 06-06-2009 07:29 AM

And we're getting destroyed.

Pete Cash 06-06-2009 07:36 AM

That Watson fellow went mental

Londoner 06-06-2009 07:37 AM

Can't believe i actually want scotland to win....what the hells goin on? First netherlands..now scotland doing well.

Bad Company 06-06-2009 07:39 AM

Yeah, he was going nuts.
Heaps of bad luck going our way too, bloody balls going to fine leg or 3rd man.

Londoner 06-06-2009 07:41 AM

Now you know how we felt.:D

Bad Company 06-06-2009 07:42 AM

Fucking hell, this is fucken ugly.

Londoner 06-06-2009 07:42 AM

uh oh

Bad Company 06-06-2009 07:44 AM

Our bowlers are absolute shit, always have been. We really needed Vettori.
Ah well, hopefully Shane Bond will be back before long.

Londoner 06-06-2009 07:48 AM

bizarre shot for six that!

Londoner 06-06-2009 07:50 AM

89 may be enough already...depends how shit scots bowlers are.

Pete Cash 06-06-2009 07:57 AM

New Zealand have a bit of fire power opening the batting. Scotland really need a couple of quick wickets and the Kiwis are in MASSIVE trouble.

Bad Company 06-06-2009 08:25 AM

Oh god, I sense another NZ implosion.

Pete Cash 06-06-2009 08:36 AM

This game is fucking hilarious.

One of the Scots dropped a ball and kicked it for four :lol:

Londoner 06-06-2009 08:39 AM

Game over now scotland. scots bowlers are shit, fielders to.

Pete Cash 06-06-2009 08:41 AM

The big fat fellow with the beard and the kilt takes a nice catch.... in the crowd :lol:

Bad luck Scots but you provided many a laugh

Bad Company 06-06-2009 08:42 AM

Good win, over to spare.

I wasn't worried :shifty:
