Six and Out - Some Serious Cricket

July 4th, 2008

Dedication of the month : July 2008 : Neil Harvey

Yeah, you saw that right. From this post on, every month six and out would dedicate the month to some cricketer who I feel strongly about. Throughout the month, I would garner facts and trivia about the person. Should be fun.

1st Test peters out

India vs England, Lord’s Day 5
Sadly, the match that was truly poised for a thrilling finish, came to nothing as England’s shoddy weather intervened. Day 5 started with India needing some 250 runs for the win, or to save 7 wickets to ensure the draw. England were in a strong position after day 4 following […]

Brian Lara has announced that he is to come out of retirement to join the Indian Cricket League, the league that has “broken away” from International cricket, and is not recognised by the ICC.

England vs India

Six & Out has taken a wee break recently. The break was a little impromptu as a result of a couple of cricket-caused finger injuries, on top of a promptu week away in the sun, where there was no Internet access. That means that S&O finds itself a little behind the times and struggling […]

Englindies / Westingland

Two Twenty20’s and two one day Internationals down and… scores are level. England and the West Indies are so evenly matched that there’s very little to separate them. And that’s not saying we’ve had four tense and exciting games - quite the opposite, in fact. Rather, we’ve been treated to four very one sided affairs, […]

Collingwood: one day captain

After Vaughan quit as captain of the one day side, all eyes were on who would be named as captain. Speculation was spot on as it was eventually given to Paul Collingwood. Irony abounds, considering that Collingwood was the most-oft picked player for the chop during England’s recent “down-time”. Fortunately, the crazy men have seen […]

Schofield report tomorrow

The results of the inquest into England’s shocking performance in Australia this Winter will be published tomorrow. Anticipation is high surrounding the thoughts of 6 men, including Nasser Hussein and Angus Fraser, on where England went wrong (well, we already know that) but importantly what should be done in going forward in to the future.

Australia won’t tour Zimbabwe

Australian prime minister John Howard has insisted to Cricket Australia that the proposed tour of Zimbabwe not go ahead on account of the political situation in Zimbabwe under the regime of Robert Mugabe.
However you feel about what is happening in Zimbabwe, it is absolutely right for this decision to be made by a government and […]
