16 from the first over in reply
Cricket is a strange game. I always think what I would do is throw the ball so it hits the wicket thing, bc then the other team gets a player sent off. But then I think, what I would do if i was batting is i would hit the ball so that it goes over the rope thing without touching the ground bc then the other players aren’t allowed to catch it, so you can’t get sent off, and you also get 6 goals without having to do any running.
I don’t know why they make it so complicated.
Bearsy give us some updates on the score I just lost my feed.
49-0 from 4 overs - I shit you not.
There has been a lot of goals but no sending offs yet AFAIK
75-0 in 7 overs/
Who replaced the England team?
This is going to be one spectacular collapse when it happens
79-0 off 8 overs
82 - 1 8.1 overs. Hales out for 20 . Roy not out 59. Joe Root next to bat.
I have considered doing a Trigger Happy TV type thingy called “That’s not cricket” which would basically involve disrupting cricket matches with non-cricketing activities.
The hope, of course, is that one of the players runs over to the crew and remonstrates indignantly, concluding with a high pitched exclamation of “that’s not cricket!”.
The fear is that the players “won’t play ball” and that they’ll actually say “the old Bill have just turned up. Pull that stump out of his arse and get your stories straight. He fell, remember. He FELL!”
and it begins 82-1

“Hales hit it straight down long on’s throat and like the women, you wonder was that really the best option?”
Down the womens throat is always a good option
