Now, usually I try to be polite to respected members like Hugh, but...




:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: 127 :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:






:neured:



The card doesn't quite work. We need an umpire one, kind of like a combination of :neured: and :tsk:


Also happy that Otago comfortably beat Northern Districts in our first match of the HRV cup (T20) today. Good day for cricket. For me.

Haha Australia :rofl: Still four more days to go though so we can't laugh just yet!

Dyer - they do it the other way round down there :lol:




England are doing well in South Africa I should add! B) An innings victory in the last match! :notworthy: England are doing great at the moment but we know they're inconsistent. The third test started today and South Africa are 65-3 :neuwine:

Australia will get 400 now and Pakistan will get a low score in their second innings. I hope not though :tsk:

It just seemed wierd to me, Christoph. You would have thought with an international cricket council, they would have made it so that it was the same worldwide.

Really not following cricket right now though. :| A bad score obviously, but we won the first test.

And personally I think wickets/runs looks much better. :|

As well as Pakistan are doing at the moment, their fielding is still disgraceful, probably the worst in the world. If they could get their shit together, they'd be a top team.

Regarding the score thing, it all comes down to what you are used to. Those raised in Aus like it their way, everyone else likes it the other way. There's no logic behind it, it's just personal preference. Like Chris says you still know the score.

Australia are 80 ahead of Pakistan with two wickets remaining in their second innings - this is great :lol:

What the fuck, Pakistan? :neured:


Excuse my french but that was one of the worst displays of test cricket I have seen in a long time. Pakistan had the upper hand for the first 3 days, then day 4 they just gave up. Complancency at its worst. Worst field settings I've ever seen, considering the situation. They need 2 wickets, so they have one slip, then 8, fucking 8, on the boundary! Didn't attack on the morning of day 4 & then let the lead grow. Then when they finally got them out, they tried to get the runs before day 5 instead of taking their time.

Pakistan thoroughly deserve to be the laughing stock of test cricket for a long time to come. I am disgusted by such a terrible display of cricket.



Sorry about that rant. I'm good now.

Anyway, looking forward to the U19 World Cup. There are a lot of minnows in there, good for the future of cricket. I think they're televising it here. I hope they are.

That was a very poor performance from Pakistan, I can't believe Australia got away with that after their rubbish first innings. Absolutely terrible.

My attention is now on the South Africa England test. Seems exciting stuff. Shame I can only view the cricinfo live scores. Would be great to watch.

Also a shame it's gonna finish too late for me to stay up :rolleyes:
