With regard to the dropped catch I was just typing this as the ball was caught:

"Think that's the point where we can all go too sleep"

Mooney acting the twat there though. He is feeding them boundary balls and then moans at the fielder.

That T-shirt thing is going to cause a proper injury to someone, could be some court case if someone gets seriously done

[Raoul Duke III]

You would not believe some of the legal decisions written about cricket and cricket grounds

[The Situation]

Mooney looks like he sniffed a couple of grams before the match.

aaaah ya, but all you need is some 18 stone fuck barreling into some chic swigging on the prosecco or an infant and he ain't seeing shit of his share of the loots and the ICC won't be paying out any development checks for a bit

There's an entire tribe of them out in North County. All headers with the big heart.

They all used to have mad nicknames too. 'The Ranger' was one.

This is what is wrong with the world. Too many lawyers.

You need to set up your own practice. Better Call Saul style. What rhymes?

Going to bed. We're 5/1 shots here imo. Shame we couldn't get Sammy early, they were there to be cleaned up.

Awaiting heroic updates in the morning.

Irish people just weren't built to play cricket in the sun.

No you misunderstand, judges LOVE cricket. Example:

In summer time village cricket is the delight of everyone. Nearly every village has its own cricket field where the young men play and the old men watch. In the village of Lintz in County Durham they have their own ground, where they have played these last 70 years. They tend it well. The wicket area is well rolled and mown. The outfield is kept short. It has a good club-house for the players and seats for the onlookers. The village team play there on Saturdays and Sundays. They belong to a league, competing with the neighbouring villages. On other evenings after work they practice while the light lasts. Yet now after these 70 years a judge of the High Court has ordered that they must not play there any more.

He has issued an injunction to stop them. He has done it at the instance of a newcomer who is no lover of cricket. This newcomer has built, or has had built for him, a house on the edge of the cricket ground which four years ago was a field where cattle grazed. The animals did not mind the cricket. But now this adjoining field has been turned into a housing estate. The newcomer bought one of the houses on the edge of the cricket ground. No doubt the open space was a selling point. Now he complains that, when a batsman hits a six, the ball has been known to land in his garden or on or near his house. His wife has got so upset about it that they always go out at weekends. They do not go into the garden when cricket is being played.

They say that this is intolerable. So they asked the judge to stop the cricket being played. And the judge, much against his will, has felt that he must order the cricket to be stopped; with the consequences, I suppose, that the Lintz Cricket Club will disappear. The cricket ground will be turned to some other use. I expect for more houses or a factory. The young men will turn to other things instead of cricket. The whole village will be much the poorer. And all this because of a newcomer who has just bought a house there next to the cricket ground.

Anyone getting too confident should check the scorecard from the SA game earlier today

Just came across this poem, this is fantastic.


"I saw it before me in shadows of doubt -
My means to salvation: my only way out.
It sat there in silence, and captured me, caught -
Immune to my heartache, and deaf to my thought:

'I don't want a future, ' I solemnly swore,
'Of sadness and silence and loss anymore.
I don't want a witness to witness goodbye -
I just wanted someone to care when I cry.'

I looked at it, waiting, and muttered a vow:
'Whatever. Lets do it. It's never or now.
I'm ending it here, of an evening, alone.'
I reached out before me... and picked up the phone."

Context being suicide/depression. On the front page of reddit but this poem stood out.

[Denny Crane]

No side down to 7/2, from 13/2, slightly regretting my decision to wait for 7/1 to be offered.

62.5 line looking like value.

Going well here, not too many hairy moments yet.
