Is Archer playing for WI as well? Or just England this year?


Well we are using an Aussie coach so something is bound to go wrong. Let’s hope Wickes can still deliver sandpaper on time to the Aussie bowlers or your boys will be in trouble.


I note SA had Imran Tahir bowling for them... go and have a quick read on Cricinfo.

The ICC set the rules, we just play to them. As well you know

Further proof that Aussie attitudes to sporting behaviour have changed for the better. Their current coach is asking fans not to boo, whereas the previous one encouraged it.

They will be shown the respect that they have earned.

Who remembers Virat Kohli being booed relentlessly as he walked out to bat at the SCG earlier this year? Aussies looking like they can dish it out, but not take it.

Also if anyone wants to watch the cricket, there is an APP called Yupp TV which has all of the World Cup, with decent commentators. I paid 19.99 euros for the whole thing.

Quality is so far pretty good, and I have the App on my TV. - so full sized too.
Hi Gargamel, I’ve downloaded the app from AppStore but cannot see any cricket subscription? Did you run this through a VPN?

Cheers
Andy
Hi Andy, I am out in Switzerland so no, I didn’t use a VPN - I see in the list below Yupp have the rights in Europe but its SKY in the UK, so that explains it.

Would be nice for both Sri Lanka and New Zealand to win, shame both cannot. Looking forward to listening to it.

In the other match I want Afghanistan to win. Twice. Lets see what reception certain sandpaper criminals get biggrin


Still the best match I have ever listened to on TMS was the Afghanistan v Scotland match in New Zealand. It was epic. Normally you can tell who can win but that match changed about 3 times during the course on who was going to do it. I think Vic Marks and Jeremy Coney were commentating which made it just so much better.

There is something magic about listening to cricket on headphones in the small hours of the morning too. Far better than the TV.

Double classic from the Mrs

The Australian anthem comes on. My wife says

"Is this the american anthem?" She is not a big cricket fan. Also, this is why the Aussie anthem should be waltzing matilda rather than Australia something or other.

Then the Afghanistan anthem comes on, so I ask her to name the country. Being a decent English chap I give her a clue. The country starts with A.

"Is it the american anthem?"

And she is a teacher ....

We are not hearing much from the bowlers union complaining that ODI is a batsman’s game.

So far three team dismissed without completing their overs.

Interesting.

Nice to hear the crims getting the boo treatment. Don't want a negative reaction from people who have paid their money? Don't be fking cheats then.
Get all they deserve and are lucky to still be allowed to play cricket. If I was in charge (and I am not) then I would ban anyone found guilty of cheating for life.

Was working at the match yesterday and sneaked in to watch the last few overs of the Afghani innings plus the Aussie reply. Great atmosphere generated by the anti-Aussie fans, either Afghani's or neutrals, and the buzz at the end when Rashid Khan was biffing them around the ground was fantastic... hehe

Their bowling attack looks a little light and think they reply too much on Khan spinning the opposition out. He got 1-52 yesterday, Warner and Finch aiming to hit out as often as possible against him. They won't make the semi's of course but they will win a few games here, for sure.

Bangladesh batting pretty well with this pair. Will be interesting if SA also lose this match having lost to England.

Saffer decision to bowl looking somewhat silly at this point.

Just pulled into services on the m42 and the Aussie team are here ,tbh I don’t follow cricket so if they aren’t all wearing team Australia kits I wouldn’t have known who they were .
Typical Aussies moaning about the rain .

Careful, a couple of them are known to be a little abrasive.

Ask the angry midget if he has any spare sandpaper in his pocket .

He'll find it funny, honest.
