Opinion NMFC Board Cricket Thread III

[KiwiRoo]

We have a 3-game T20 series coming up against Pakistan starting Thursday. As far as meaningful international sport at the elite level goes, this won't be it.

You've just had it haven't you ?

did any game go past 30 overs for the side chasing in the 50 over series ?

RIP ODI Cricket in this country.

CA, the selectors and players giving the big middle finger to the fans, and in a way, to Pakistan, by not giving two shits about winning this. And, damningly, I don't know if anyone really cares. No sponsors, no FTA, no ramifications for the shellacking. Fox must be wondering what they paid for.

The fans? What fans? No one watches it.. I watched the first one dayer at the G, there was about 5 thousand people there.

One day cricket has been dead for a while

The commentators, most specifically Mark Waugh were the same, talking the series down and showing hardly any respect to the Pakistan team.

At the moment I believe that Extras has a better average than this bloke.

He hasn't been too gushing about Maxwell lately either

Can we get Extras to open?

And tell me, is it still raining there in Brisbane?

Fraser-McGurk continues to show nothing. Surely he is ready for the chop. Maxwell is really overdue for a big one. Please.

The funniest thing I just saw was in the innings break on the boundary, Fraser-McGurk was shadow practising a defensive shot!

Your insinuated prediction re: Maxwell was spot on.

Good song, but IMO it wasn't their best (my vote is for the under-rated "For a Bleeding Heart").

Think Lomas was doing his best Lou Reed ...

Drinking sangria in the park and all that

I got that. But the song title is slightly different, so I stayed with The Little Heroes.

Lou Reed's Perfect Day was the ... perfect backing track in Trainspotting.
