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

^^^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

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

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.

Hey Hughsie! Got you a KFC Toasted Pocketful!

Don't forget the KFC Backyard Bucket.

Let us take you back to 1986 when the LEGENDARY Timmy Zoehrer makes his ODI debut for Australia:

screw you, abdur rauf....YOU DROPPED THE SCRIPT

Shahid Afridi: is he the Greatest South Australian since Boof?

Magiiiiiiiiic Johnson!!

imo daniel christian and kieran pollard need a bit of credit too xp

Kieran Pollard is defintely the best South Australian of West Indian origin since Gary Sobers, true.

And that's the test! Another triumph!

No wonder you have been SB'd at least 153 times.

Here's an interesting T/S of great Australian cricketers and their reading habits for you: Stuart MacGill reading 24 novels on tour vs Adam Gilchrist reading Karl Marx on tour.

Was GILLY a wine-tasting expert? Did he have a WELSH MIDDLE NAME? Thought not.

It takes a man of socialist courage to battle his way past TIMMY ZOEHRER to get the wicketkeeping gloves for Western Australia.
