What's going on?

(Yes, I know, LO cricket can't abide ties, and will break them, break and break them again - but the incredulity stands.)

Shame we’ve got no Snoozers on here. There was one in the C4 days (Matt, was it?)

Kiwi DJ. He had a workmate with a nice rack, or at least he told her so. It didn't go so well, from memory.

Not sure where Matt was originally from - another vanished formerly prolific poster, even if that was his only ID, which always seemed doubtful. I think Angela had some correspondence with him.

by skully Mon 11 Nov 2019, 23:07

Kiwi DJ was a good bloke.

by lardbucket Mon 11 Nov 2019, 23:23

Aye.

Are you up at Port Macquarie?

by skully Mon 11 Nov 2019, 23:30

No. Just back from a visit to England. Still heavily jet-lagged.

At home keeping a vigilant watch on the weather and the tree-lined valleys down the road.

Heading to Port soon for my dear old Mum's 80th birthday.

stay safe - I would not like to be caught on that road in the fire that threatens to engulf it

by skully Mon 11 Nov 2019, 23:48

Yeah, thanks. Pacific Hwy has been closed on and off for days around Taree and north.

Geez, the Ghanis just won the 3 match T20 series v Windies 2-1.

And I thought T20 was the only format the Ganjas were good at at. scratch

by JGK Thu 12 Dec 2019, 01:16

The way that they award MOTM for T20s really needs to change. Rahul top scored last night with 91 and so got the award. Yet he faced 56 balls in doing in while Rohit and Virat scored 70 of 31 odd balls. By just about any measure other than total runs, those two had the better innings.

by skully Mon 16 Dec 2019, 01:17

Ganjas easily accounted for the Bannies last night - by 8 wickets with 2 overs to spare.

Shitmon Hitmon and Shai Hope nailed it.

Aust squad for the ODI series in India:

Australia ODI squad for Qantas Tour of India: Aaron Finch (c), Sean Abbott, Ashton Agar, Alex Carey (vc), Pat Cummins (vc), Peter Handscomb, Josh Hazlewood, Marnus Labuschagne, Kane Richardson, Steve Smith, Mitchell Starc, Ashton Turner, David Warner, Adam Zampa

Still plenty of deadwood to be pruned.

by skully Tue 17 Dec 2019, 06:57

I see Langer is not touring, having some R & R instead. Can't blame him, really.

by skully Thu 19 Dec 2019, 00:36

Useful total by the Bannies in the latest ODI v WI - 5-387.

Rotation of Coaches? shrug

Bannies tie up the series.

by PeterCS Sat 21 Dec 2019, 01:20

Glad tie-dings all over this thread!

by Bradman Sat 21 Dec 2019, 03:43

Not sure about glad.

Will be surprised if Hazlewood tours, given he has barely a month to fix and test his hamstring.

There are several questionable choices in the squad. Agar stands out as one of those and K Richardson is another. At least there is no Marsh in the team.

Tight match between the Paddies and the Ganjas at the moment. 2 wickets or 17 runs to go.

by JGK Fri 10 Jan 2020, 01:40

Now 6 runs, 1 wicket, 10 balls.

by JGK Fri 10 Jan 2020, 01:48

Paddies robbed by the Third Ump on a run out where the ball hits the stumps and then falls out of the hands and the slow mo says the bails aren't dislodged by the time the ball slips out.

And now the Paddies botch up another run out which would have won the game.
