So is it just me or is Watson more of a bowler than a batter these days? he seems to have more effect when he bowls vs batting lol. Seems like a waste having him at 3

Everyone seems to love him and think we need him. Really he needs to relax and enjoy it. He's too serious and sulks a lot if things don't go right.

David Warner is a fucking idiot. Possibly an all time greatest idiot.

A fucking thug that can bat.

Fuck off dickhead. A disgrace to the baggy green, and that is saying something.

So - how about De Villiars century the other day - 100 of 31 and 149 off 44! Someone on OCAU posted up his list of achievements outside the cricketing world:

He was shortlisted for South Africa's junior national hockey team.
He made it to the shortlist of South Africa's junior national football team.
He was captain of South Africa's junior national rugby team.
He holds six South African school swimming records.
He holds the record in the 100m dash in South Africa's junior athletics.
He was a member of South Africa's junior Davis Cup tennis team.
He was South Africa's U-19 national badminton champion.
Has a golf handicap of scratch or zero, which means he is a player whose average score for a round of golf is par or better.
He is a recipient of the prestigious national medal from the Late Nelson Mandela for a science project.

Seems he pretty much had his pick of what he wanted to do. That much talent should be spread around the gene pool - not concentrated in one guy!

If I had my pick of all that, and knew I was going to reach an elite level, I think it would be Tennis.

Warner is a dickhead.

What did he do? I missed the last ODI.

Telling one of the Indian batsman to speak English at a run decision.

How good was the bbl

Brilliant. What a finish tonight. Really hoping the strikers go well in the semi. Still don't know what night it will be on yet either. Hope I can get tickets

The BBL game last night was good. The Duke hitting those 6's really got them back in to win.

Shaun · Post by **Shaun** » Thu Jan 22, 2015 10:49 pm

And again the bbl delivers. Wow

All over for the strikers! Sorry Shaun!

Post by **norbs** » Sat Jan 24, 2015 8:28 pm

It just started spitting with rain when I was out on the bike. Is it over yet? Fuck it was noisy when I went past.

pixelboy · Post by **pixelboy** » Sat Jan 24, 2015 8:33 pm

Nah, won't finish for an hour.. They have a big total to chase and are 4 fa already!

Post by **norbs** » Sat Jan 24, 2015 8:54 pm

Fark, by the time I found out it was on 10, they lost another 4.

Jesus. That was doing my head in. Why the fuck are Sydney Red and Adelaide Blue?

Shaun · Post by **Shaun** » Sat Jan 24, 2015 10:13 pm

Yeah I was half way to my car when we were 7 down. Hate to leave early but why waste my life on that rubbish. Well played Sydney

Yeah, I don't understand that either.

Everyone knows that each city's colours are:

Adelaide = Red
Melbourne = Blue
Sydney = Pink

Go scorchers!

That was a cracking game of cricket to end BBL4!

Post by **Bauer** » Wed Jan 28, 2015 10:06 pm

Yes, very good tournament.
