Cricket Crap

[TheParraboy]

He is the captain he declared on himself. Pretty classy really.

Saw when Pollock interviewed him , was after the days play

Very humble and likeable fellow . Said he has learnt a lot last couple of years to improve himself. At the end of the interview Pollock asked him why didn’t he go for Lara’s record , and he said legends of the game should keep those sorts of records . Classy indeed

I hope someone tells Nathan Lyon the same thing as he closes in SK Warne's record.

Warne's 708 record shouldnt be broken out of respect especially when Lyon isn't a spinners arsehole on Warnie.

Problem is some media twits, and half the fans out there think he some sort of marvel hero and would want him to beat the record...

Think he will need to play another 4 years to get it though

Average over 35 now

But yeah,
Declared at 381* and every aussie bloke south of the QLD border buys him a beer...

I get that he was trying to show respect or whatever but he totally should have gone for it. Not every record needs to be held by a legend of the game.

It's not like Lara wasn't taking the piss when he got the 400 anyway.

Was nothing wrong with Lara keeping the poms on the field and driving them into the dirt.

No but there would have been nothing wrong with Mulder doing the same either.

Excuse me the Great Rob Quiney has a score named after him how can you possibly say he is not a legend that's atrocious

 

[Twizzle]

I've watched a bit of this, pretty uninspiring

Now India refusing to play Pakistan, even on neutral territory

sad to see


Only 50% refund for tix bought, that seems a bit sad too...

https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/india-champions-pull-out-of-wcl-semi-final-against-pakistan-champions-1497335

The India Champions team, which includes players such as Yuvraj Singh, Shikhar Dhawan, Suresh Raina, Harbhajan Singh, Piyush Chawla, Yusuf Pathan and Robin Uthappa, had also refused to play their group match against Pakistan Champions on July 20.

While the teams had shared points on that occasion, Pakistan Champions progressed to the final after India Champions refused to play the semi-final because they finished top of the group with nine points. India Champions had placed fourth with three points. The event organisers confirmed a 50% refund to the fans who had purchased tickets for the semi-finals.

Sporting relations between India and Pakistan have deteriorated due to the terror attack in Pahalgam in Jammu & Kashmir in April this year, and the military skirmish that followed between the two.

While the international teams of India and Pakistan have not yet faced each other since then, the men's teams are due to face each other in the Asia Cup in the UAE on September 14, while the women's teams have their ODI World Cup match in Colombo on October 6.
