I don't like cricket ...

256/7
And the tail collapse begins ...

dheim ... I'm sure there is a 'ring' gag somewhere between your moebius comment and that ladies posterior.
But I'm not going there ...

Hmmm... 311 for 8 at lunch sounds a bit better

This time yesterday I thought we'd be lucky to get 250!

What we need is a party piece 40-50 from Harmison. All out for about for about 380, and 3 quick wickets before tea... :D

^ ^ oh, i get it now, he meant "+ infinity"

318 all out... not too bad, considering.

318 all out... not too bad, considering

Considering we're rubbish!

[AndyR]

And considering the Windies reached 160-1 by the close!

Perhaps Harmie will take 5 wickets in a blinding opening 2 or 3 overs tomorrow morning :lol:

[99_not_out]

We can but live in hope ...

This cheered me up though:

Apologies to our Australian forumites, but when it coems to cricket you are the old enemy ... :)

[AndyR]

"Australia have slid to their fifth consecutive defeat, that too at home."
:D

Apologies to our Australian forumites

+1
But at least they're getting some idea of how we Poms feel most of the time :lol:

[AndyR]

Hey! Just noticed that was my 999th post...


So this must be my 1000th

Rah! :lol:

EDIT: And suddenly I'm a "Welterweight" (how do BKP know I still haven't shed the xmas pounds yet?)

Do I get a free pickup or something as well?

[dave_mc]

Considering we're rubbish!

yeah, more or less. :lol:

hmmm, sarwan's just out. though chanderpaul will probably hit 600. probably best to just try to get the dude at the other end out... :lol:

[ToneMonkey]

Maybe we should go back to bowling at people heads rather than the wickets  :oops:

[99_not_out]

he'll probably get a century and take a 5'for now I've said that!

Well, I was half right :-)

Draw ....

[AndyR]

That's what I was saying to the missus last night - either it's a draw... or one team is gonna be really embarrassed! :lol:

[99_not_out]

Here's something I never wanted to read on cricinfo's commentary:
"What a start by West Indies. Here comes England's saviour, Ian Bell. This is his moment. England need a fighter..."
Sink or swim time I guess!

This referrals lark is a bit of a pain too, especially as I think with the first one used it turned out the umpire was right all along and the video referral ref got it wrong ... lol.

Ho hum... less than an hour later... and it looks like one team is gonna be embarrassed :roll:

[dave_mc]

yeah, england appear to be in serious trouble.
