Move over 11 a side sport, iSixes is here. With teams of six players each, and a lot more action with just 5 overs. Seems like the Hong Kong sixes? Well, all sixes are the same. This one though, has just the Test Playing teams participating along with an All Stars and the home team […]
Just watched the Kolkata Knight Riders vs Rajasthan Royals match on telly. A few things prior to the match came to my attention. Since the owner of the Kolkata team has gifted each player a new laptop, the Knight Riders have never won. Some coincidence. I hope Vijay Mallaya (liquor baron, owner of the Bangalore […]
Watching the IPL fixture between the Deccan Chargers and the Rajasthan Royals tonight, a few things caught my eye. Lets go through them:
Afridi had a go at Warnie, Warnie said something like : “Grow up, mate”
Tendulkar’s Birthday had the crowd more excited than their home team Deccan Chargers
Deccan Chargers continued their bad form. Having arguably […]

The idea of off-season may be completely off to some. A previous post on it got, like, no response (We are thick-skinned. Heh), but however ill-fated it may be, we are determined to shop it around. For us, it’s the Great Romantic Novel (think Gone With the Wind). Someday […]

It’s official. Michael Clarke has become an issue of national importance for the Australian media. The players just don’t want to stop debating over him.
The best way to do this would be to elevate him to the vice-captaincy in all forms of the game.
–Shane Warne
I don’t necessarily agree with [Warne],” […]
*The Poms. Er. Englishchers. I mean the English. Beating the Sri Lankan tigers on their own home turf is no ring-a-ring-a-roses.
Scorecard
Glad Anderson came into his own. With Stu (ahem, get used to Stuart Broad being called by that nickname, here) continuing to impress (ladies) by constantly taking wickets and handling pressure well (good comeback, btw, […]
Well actually, not so much. But the rumours that were rife that Australian legend and current Hampshire Captain Shane Warne was about to relinquish his Australian citizenship in favour of bratwurst and lederhosen have been scotched. The intended trick was to get around next season’s “only 1 International player per side”* regulations, since as a […]
Shane Warne has received a “personal” 6 points for disorderly conduct during Hampshire’s game with Kent at the weekend, so reports Cricinfo. The ECB upheld a complaint of Warne showing dissent following his dismissal for LBW, which included an “audible obscenity” not to mention the odd glare or two. The points stay on his record […]
You decide. I’ve put a poll up to the right of this post. Who will it be? I added some English players to the list, more as a joke than anything else, but I have to say I was struggling to even think of names who might have been considered for it.
Inevitably it will be […]
You’d rightly be feeling a little bit miffed at the moment. You can’t escape the hype surrounding Shane Warne and his 700th test wicket. Heck, I’m as guilty of it as anyone. Yes, 700 wickets is a huge feat and no doubt his impending retirement has added to the hype, but it seems one or […]
