Not sure where to post this, so just sticking it here, but England just took a 2-1 lead with an innings victory over South Africa in South Africa. 1 match left in the series.
Adds a bit more perspective to the quality of our performance over the summer.

Other Cricket probably the go.
Have moved it.

@Cyclops yeah, and very interesting given Oz pasting India in ODIs. For all our limp performance in our latest series we aren't quite as shit as we've been painted!
2-1 series win to India wasn't it? Not sure I would call that Aus pasting India.

The 1 was a 10 wicket win chasing 250 odd. That's a humiliation, doubly so at home. India bounced back well though.
SA England test 4 starts tonight. England ahead 2-1 after losing the first - should be quite tasty. Hopefully SA get up. Coudl be the last tests for Philander and DuPlessis.
9pm - i think it's on Sky Sport somewhere

Can't find the other cricket thread.
I see the worlds oldest 16 year old got a hat-trick
Those claims of 15 or 16 year old Pakistani cricketers always have to be taken with a large dose riiiiight...

how in the fuck does David Warner win the Alan Border Medal over loose bus change?
Surely you need mental fortitude to win the Alan Border Medal? Blubbing on TV like a retard should automatically disqualify you.

Because he's a Marnus and his eyes are too close together?
Can't think of any other reason

Given that it is Warner that you are talking about the "like a" wasn't really necessary.
Heh Heh! England caught the whoopsies!
a cracker of a game in SA. Ngidi the hero, and we're not the only ones struggling at the back end of T20!
with seven balls to go, England needed seven to win with Morgan having hammered 14 runs from the previous three balls and still on strike. But holing out that ball, it gave South Africa the glimmer of hope they required with Ngidi on the tools and he did not disappoint.
also wanted to note the Aussie Women beat the Indians int he final last night NZT. Was a good game - India absolutely choked it at the end, threw away wickets and imploded.
They needed 41 off 35 with 7 wickets in hand, and were all out losing 7 for 30 or so. Epic choke.
I like cricket, and quite happy to watch women's cricket. As more sides build quality, it also means twice as much cricket to watch!
Auckland v Otago in the final of the Ford Trophy on now.
Looks like two OTago batsmen have retired with concussion and been replaced. Otago 114/2 after 18.4 overs, on skyp sport 2
