A Farewell to Beige, Cream and Off-White Jackets: The Official Cape of Good Hope 2009/10 Cricket Season Thread

HE'S OUT

The 200 dream is over, but is the 500?

What's going on? This isn't in the script!

lol collapse lol

THE KFC BIGGER BASH IS COMING!!

A 8-team city-based Australian Twenty20 League!!

i did not watch the sri lanka innings, but wtf o_O

Cricinfo headline: "India clinch high-scoring humdinger"

holy shit @ that scorecard

Well well well, look who's on Cricinfo's live commentary!

10.23 am: Fred Nerk's pleased that Hauritz is playing. Actually strike that, he's pleased Steve smith isn't. "Glad Steve Smith isn't in the side. He looked good in the CLT20, but throwing someone that inexperienced in would see him go the same way as McGain, Casson, Krejza, etc. He needs more work with Warnie. Having said that, he is the best post-Warne/MacGill spinner I've yet seen."

ILX not good enough eh?

Picking Steve Smith would have been yet more insane NSFW bias, is the issue here. He's another batsman-spinner! Another Cameron White.

Hey Pato and Louis, I just saw the WEST END REDBACKS at ADL airport just before. News must be slow because there were 80 million media ppl there to film their arrival.

Also they have a few tubby fuxx in that team

also fyi during my stint I've grown to appreciate Dr Tim's cans (hadn't heard of it before I arrived)

hi wilter:D

Dr. Tim's is quite good - apparently he invented it because he couldn't drink bottles of Sparkling Ale on the golf course!

Yes, there is never much happening in tha ADL in terms of news (not involving shallow bush graves). And yes, the Sudaustralien Redbacks have a proud tradition of tubby fuxx (Hello Boof, if you're out there sinking a few).

HEY, E!

It's no Deano vs Ambrose, that's for sure...it's better!

want a gif and loop of benn staring out haddin while looking as disgusted as a human being has looked

Ponting declaring five runs short of the world record for the highest score in an innings with no century = worst captain ever.

^^^agreed, that fucking pissed me off. A 99 and 3 80s! This is almost as bad as that time India were gonna do it and go a whole series without anyone hitting a ton and then Anil Kumble got a fucking hundred

gayle killing it

that was one of the 3 or 4 biggest sixes i have ever seen

boom! 100 off 70 :D

oh....and gone

laaaaaame

now watch as the WI make a disappointing 400

Benn, 28, has a reputation for belligerence, and Australian batsman Marcus North on Thursday night described him as "an unusual guy".

bravo to the age for the 'surly man benn to be banned' headline, kudos

c Watson b Bollinger
c Hussey b Johnson
c Hussey b Bollinger
c Watson b Johnson

o_O

algy met a bear
a bear met algy
the bear had a bulge
the bulge was algy

400 was p-optimistic, as tom ewing or cankles might say

Something of a moral victory for the WI that Ricky's coming in at 9!!

Ricky Ponting's average batting at 9: 2!! Whaddaplaya

It was decided between work colleagues today that Ricky Ponting is even worse than Kim Hughes as captain.

australia may be about to win this test but there is nothing more ;_; in sport than an entire wicket celebration that gets overturned, especially if it is ur first test wicket

kinda ;_; but mostly XD

lol...possibly it's even more ;_; when it happens again for your 2nd?!

haha

bollinger is a bit tasty. he was so bad for worcestershire a few years ago! now he makes mitchell johnson look like a piechucker

hahahahahaha that is the best shot ever <3 these gutsy windians tbh

seriously. awesome doomed heroics here!

it's like they're having a party about the fact they can compete w/ the australians, before their defeat has been quite concerned, like a birthday bash in a hospice

oh my god this is gonna become heartbreaking soon. they may even get within 50 ;_;

or nay

even the 10 and 11 are fighting, this is too much

THERE'S NOTHING ON THE HOT SPOT

BUT HE NICKED IT

DIDN'T HE

http://www.emotty.com/images/emoticons/907.png

the ball had a hot spot on it, i think!

watson is such a spanner!

Steven Smith? Do I smell NSFW BIAS?

yes, tbh

good to see watson make an even bigger tit out of himself yesterday

srs

The England stream isn't working. So I'm watching BIG BASH

Ross Taylor and Dwayne Bravo teaching the Aussies how to BASH!

KFC BIG BASH I think you'll find.

My bad.
