Re: The Cricket Thread
just glad we were spared the embarrassment of being dismissed for under 100. Only really shit teams get out for less than that. Some really really shit teams get out for under 100 several times in the last 2 years!

Re: The Cricket Thread
So, your day is made better by enjoying listening to 'the brits' lose at a sport you clearly couldn't care less about?
Take a step back if you can and try to imagine how that looks.
Endearingly cheeky and combative or a bit sad and desperate for an argument?

Re: The Cricket Thread
Think positive people ! Our number 9 batsmen was 2nd top scorer in the game only 1 run behind the number 7 batsmen who was England's top man in the match with 74 runs God help the opposition when the first 6 record any notable scores

Re: The Cricket Thread
Wow, Pakistan have wrapped up the entire test in a mere 3 days. That's nearly as good as Australia. 
But they've absolutely rewritten the record books: in the entire history of cricket, no #1 Test team has ever been thrashed so comprehensively between Tuesday and Thursday at Dubai in January by a team from the subcontinent with two players whose names end in '-mal.'
Incredible stuff. Take a bow, Pakistan: you've earned it.
