He volunteers at the soup kitchen and fights crime as a masked vigilante.

Why blame circumstances when we can blame the Kiwis?

Why blame anyone or anything else, when Skully (generally) and Trev (like an addicted roulette loser heavily backing SL) are around?

Clearly Skully is to be blamed for the Kiwis being so blamable.

Henry could be an anti-fixer.

Says I despite getting barely anything right.

49/4 and NZ are pantsing it.

Or maybe he is a fixer, Snoozers in the shit.

70/5.... zoiks.

Cometh the hour, cometh The Dan?

by PeterCS Sun 09 Jun 2013, 15:52

Generally, I like the Lankans' cheerful optimistic attitude. But given that, and the evident tautness and tightness of the match, their constant appealing does sometimes approach Broad/Harbhajan levels of quntishness. It's irritating gamesmanship when it's so repetitive.

by PeterCS Sun 09 Jun 2013, 15:54

Vettori unlucky to be given out on a big edge.

Hard to avoid the conclusion the ump was appeal-bombarded into giving it.

No.

Out for a piddly amount.

80/6.

Still need 59. Oo er.

England are going to be all at sea again against Malinga and Herath, aren't they? Or 3/4 of them.

You can see it coming a mile off. Some batsmen never learn.

by Brass Monkey Sun 09 Jun 2013, 16:42

Brendan gone. Almost yorked himself. 7 down with 24 still needed.

by LeFromage Sun 09 Jun 2013, 16:43

It's Chokeageddon.

by PeterCS Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:03

The appeal hysteria might yet backfire. Two good appeals have been denied since Vettori was sawn off with Lankans screeching and yodelling all over the place 4/5 times an over.

by PeterCS Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:06

Southee's ended up getting pissed off with the appealing campaign.

Could work either way.

by PeterCS Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:07

NZ might need to get he runs this over.

Malinga could polish them off in 2 balls otherwise.

by Brass Monkey Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:09

Shit me this is close

by furriner Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:10

Jeez, 5 runs to get last man in.

by WideWally Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:11

34.5
Eranga to Southee,
OUT,
another yorker! the batsman digs it out towards mid-on and sets off for
a single, the fielder at mid-on - Thisara - aims at the non-striker's
end, but misses. However, his throw goes on to hit the stumps at
striker's end and guess what, Mills is short!

KD Mills run out 3 (10b 0x4 0x6) SR: 30.00

That is unlucky.

by furriner Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:12

And of course a firing Malinga to come next to bowl his 10th.

by PeterCS Sun 09 Jun 2013, 17:13

Dan's dream date Midge Mac stiffly keeps it out.

Bomber Malinga to last Kiwi hope, Bomber Southee.
