Chris2K Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 There's always the retired sportsman in the KFC catch area who never gets close to making a catch, and let's face it, they would drop it if they ever did get a chance. Also you get to hear people take the piss out of Mark Waugh in every other match. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornswoggle4PM Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 (edited) Although I've been watching the Open instead, I'd have to agree. I thought the Big Bash was just a gimmicky waste of time that wouldn't be at all fun to watch compared to the regular forms of the game, but it's actually pretty good if you just want to see a quick, fun game. It seems better than the IPL and International T20s I've seen, but maybe that's just because I have an idea of who 3/4 of the players are. All I'm saying is, give it a shot. EDIT: And Damien Fleming is really funny to listen to as well. Edited January 15, 2014 by Hornswoggle4PM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
METALMAN Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 I've never really been a huge fan of limited overs cricket - I've never even been to a limited overs match - but I've been looking at this Big Bash thing and there's quite a few good players in it so I might give it a go. Plus it's something to do in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2K Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Somehow England manage to lose in more hilarious ways each and every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris2K Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 England win! Take THAT Australian team missing most of their regular players who have been rested after winning the first eight games of this tour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plubby Posted January 24, 2014 Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I was there before dehydration claimed me just after Finch made his 100. Bailey made some decisions that Armchair Captain Reece did not agree with, but I guess we'll never know. Even though we lost it was still worth it to see another great installment of Ian Bell's "I cannot believe this awful thing I have just done" facial expression after getting out. He looked so disgusted with himself that he may actually have drawn a pistol and Kurt Cobain'd himself if had been Steve Smith dismissing him again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2K Posted February 4, 2014 Report Share Posted February 4, 2014 Kevin Pietersen has been retired by the ECB who have told him they're no longer going to pick him. Andy Flower has quit as England Test Match Head Coach. Ashley Giles, who led England to one victory in 8 matches this winter, is the favourite to replace Flower, who led England to three Ashes series. There is nobody to replace Pietersen. Or Swann. Or Prior. Or Strauss. We've only just found someone to replace Flintoff. This is going to a period of severe worry for English cricket. Again.
