A Few More Grey Hairs

noreply@blogger.com (Martyd) — Sun, 16 Jun 2013 07:47:00 +0000

What with the weather, the team's performances, the Ashes and the deabte over what constitutes ball polishing, Ashley Giles is likely to have a few more grey hairs by the end of the season.

Nostalgia

noreply@blogger.com (Martyd) — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 08:51:00 +0000

Less hair, no beard, one ball past the outside edge, the second one an arm ball past the inside edge, the 10 finger appeal - it all brings back such happy memories.

Nothing like cricket umpiring to give you a slightly jaundiced view of the world.

Who knows what Jagmohan Dalmiya has got planned for the future? It may just be the fourth ring.

Zero To Hero

Just another example of a week being a very long time in the game of cricket.

Fear And Loathing In The Second Innings

Celebrating The Bouncer

noreply@blogger.com (Martyd) — Tue, 21 May 2013 08:21:00 +0000

Remember when test wickets would bounce. When big nasties ran in and played a little chin music. When batsman feared for their life not their bank balance. I am sure Robin Smith does. Over the next week or two I intend to live in the past and recall why I loved watching and was bloody pleased I wasn't out there.
