For general Cricket discussion, saves new threads being started sporadically.

For people who know nothing about the sport, here is a great selection of addictive games.


p.s. England are currently the world champions (of T20).

It is a dull Summer. More than made up for by an Ashes Winter though. Xmas Day night at the MCG. Can't beat it.

Totally. It's the best thing about Christmas day, when the cricket starts at midnight and all family stuff has long ended.

Anyone watching WI v SA? I have bet WI and they are in slightly better shape than start of match, but they always lose. Sadly it was all that was on TV.

[McBeef]

you bet on wi v sth africa? wtf?

[kom]

My room mate is South African so I took WI at $3. This is the 2nd match they have lost in the last 1-2 balls. FML

If Bangladesh get their act together fielding and bowling, they will be a dangerous out-fit in the future. They don't half give it some willow with the bat.

Mortaza always looked good for them when I watched them play, also they have a decent array of slow bowlers. Fielding and discipline is an issue, but they are a team on the rise IMO, even after Bashir moves on...

Looking forward to the next Australian summer, but this gap between the world 20/20 and the next matches is killing me.

Also, lol at Wright breaking his bat in the Pommy domestic 20/20 a few days ago. We have had a few games on Foxtel in Australia, and being the nightowl that I am, its better then the Home Shopping ads...

[herbie9]

What a shambles they are?!

Bangladesh are going backwards, back in batting following-on again after being 100 odd for no-wicket, then all out for 216.

They are already 2 wickets down in their second innings edit: make that 3 down.
