I’m away on holiday tomorrow for about 10 days, no Internet. And whilst you, my dear readers, try to contain your disappointment, I’ll attempt to lighten the mood that upon my mood I hope to be able blog about a successful 2nd Test for the English. Unless you’re a Pakistan supporter, in which case, you’ll […]
The next nation on the list of “England humiliators” has announced its intentions, and their principal players are barely out of kindergarten.
Although cricket has been in China since 1858 the recently finished the end of the first national tournament marks the start of China’s determination to take over the world. Well, the cricket world, at […]
But I was right. I’m not going to brag because a more obvious result has never been so predictable. When you get 3 centuries in the first innings, a double century in the second and another century in the third, there’s a gentle indicator that it might just be a batting pitch, and getting 10 […]
I’m sure the chaps over at King Cricket will be interested to know about Rob Key’s pre-marital nightmares. It seems Rob is putting cricket before his wedding in a gallant show of patriotism. Apparently the poor love has arrange half a dozen dates for the big day, only for Rob to put the scuppers on […]
The next phase of the English domestic cricket season gets under way tomorrow, with the start of the Pro 40 league. But it seems finding good information on what it’s all about is a task in itself. Even on the ECB website, the masterminds behind the league, it’s difficult to find a good definition of […]
If you’ve been watching Sky Sports 1’s coverage of the 1st Test between England and Pakistan, then no doubt you’ll have heard some of Nasser Hussain’s commentary.
But have you heard the few occasions where his voice has gone outrageously squeaky? It seems Nasser Hussain is about 20 years behind himself in the puberty-stakes. It’s […]
And predict the result of the 1st Test, England v Pakistan at Lord’s will be: *fanfare* A draw. How have I reached such an inspired decision? Because look at it. Day 3, Pakistan are 360/6 with Mohammad Yousuf 160 not out, chasing England’s 528/9 dec. It’s a fairly typical mid-Summer Lord’s pitch - short, dry, […]
Hurray for still being able to hide behind the injury excuse. If I had the inclination, I’d go through all the cricket news stories from the BBC and CricInfo in the last couple of months and figure out what proportion of them are do with an injury concern with the English cricket team. Since I […]
Supposably it was an important match to win, all the more apparent by England fielding their test side. Some people scored runs. Some people took some wickets. But inevitably it ended in a tedious draw. Alastair Cook and Ian Bell’s 50’s will be promising, as they’re both in the squad for the test side. But […]
It seems whatever the peeps at the ICC were smoking has run out, and they’ve started thinking a little more clearly again. (I almost said “started talking sense again”, but that would have been wildly inaccurate.)
Thank God that’s over with. (For now, at least.)
(I seem to be justifying a lot of things I […]
