Can't believe everyone is focusing on the World Cup and missed this cracking series between Argentina and Chile.

A couple of records:
1. 427 scored by Argentina in 20 overs. Including 1 bowler conceding 52 runs off their over. 73 extras for the innings and not a single six.
2. Chile only scored 1 run off the bat in the 3rd T20 game. In fact, aside from Jessica Miranda's brilliant 27 in game 1, Chile only scored 9 runs off the bat all series with 21 ducks.
3. For some reason Chile kept winning the toss and electing to field.

Looking forward to the return series.

Point 3 makes their captain about Pat Cummins level

I've played in a team like that for one game. 2/10 do not recommend

I live for the day the Argentinans become a cricket powerhouse.

Look forward to them knocking England out of the world cup with a mankad

I didn't realise how big the rivalry was between Argentina and England until I saw the Beckham documentary.

Yet again I am casual soccer fan not a hard-core one.

I think Argentina could really teach England the true spirit of cricket

Bishan Bedi, India's legendary spinner, dies at 77

Former India captain was ailing for the last two years and had undergone multiple surgeries during this period

Never forget watching Bedi bat, would play no 11 in any team in the history of cricket, and barely knew which end of the bat to hold.

Could bowl though.

RIP.

Are you thinking of his mate Chandrasekhar?

Thanks Jonny for reminding us you guys are the moral arbitrator's of the game.

Like we didnt know already

Porky Bairstow might be better served concentrating on scoring a few runs at the current world cup. Overrated chunkadunk.

Michael Vaughan and Gilly were taking the piss on a podcast out of the fact.

England are doing a book about the revolution of Test Cricket with Bazball. Yet it still hasn't won an ashes series.

Well he was literally twice as bad as Bedi.

Bedi ave 8.98 highest score 50.

Chandrasekhar ave 4.04 highest score 22.
He is one of the few players to have more test wickets than test runs.

Chandrasekhar had a withered right arm from polio which meant he couldn't grip the bat properly.

I've played in a game like that.

40 degrees and Captain won the toss and decided to bowl, opposition scored 334 off of 40 overs.

We got rolled for 34.

RIP Bedi. One of the greatest spin bowlers ever, and for better or worse spoke his mind

I remember him too, him and Bedi must have had the same batting coach.

Bedi was some bowler though.

Yes he was

Amazing county record

Never afraid to say it as it is...


“I called him (Murali) a javelin thrower. I can call him a shot-putter. People say that he has got 800 wickets. I would rather say that it’s 800 run-outs! On one hand you have Shane Warne who is a magician and then you have Muralitharan on the other hand. It’s total shambles. And Harbhajan Singh is no different."

“If Murali doesn’t chuck, then show me how to bowl.”

 

[Twizzle]

I was never a great fan of Murali, but even less of a fan of the Murali bashing.

He wasn't the problem, the ICC were the problem as they changed the rules to suit Murali who was a big attraction in Asia and meant a lot of $$$$$$
