Give your wrist a rest Harmy

Thank God for Test cricket. The World Cup served to do nothing but completely disenfranchise me from the game and I’m glad I won’t have to see another one for 4 years.
The first Test between England and the Windies at Lords is an odd affair. What the hell has happened to English bowlers. With […]

Enough is enough

World Cup 2007
I had a girlfriend once who was a total slut. During the time we had our thing going on, I was convinced she had at least 2 other men banging her senseless and yet it took me a long time to kick her into touch. (I didn’t actually kick her you understand). The problem […]

Little screen for a little game

I watched the England-West Indies-Dead Rubber-Lara farewell-Game as a half hour highlights show on my Vodafone mobile, (As an aside I have to say that my little Motorola V3X makes for surprisingly pleasant viewing) as I reckon the match wasn’t worthy of viewing on a full size screen.

Outplayed outclassed outthunk and outta here

I have been struggling to garner any real enthusiasm for this world cup. The first 43 matches played have offered up some minor moments of interest but hardly enough to encourage me to set my alarm for the ungodly hour required to watch many of the matches live.

The devils biggest trick

Suggestions of one or more organised criminal fraternities being responsible for the death of Bob Woolmer are meeting incredulity in a succession of head-on collisions. At the head of the crash are an array of past and present Pakistani cricketing personalities all apparently dumbstruck by the suggestions of a corrupt element within or around […]

Big names struggling to bowl out minnows

One of the trends I have noticed after 11 games of the World Cup is that some of the lesser teams seem to be almost impossible to bowl out, even if they do end up on the losing side by a comfortable margin. I guess they baton the hatches to some extent when chasing a […]

I’m stunned, happy - but stunned

Ireland have beaten Pakistan in the World Cup. I know. It still doesn’t sound right does it. I’m Irish and I’m happy but having spent all day at a birthday party knee deep in quad-bike induced shit, I havent seen the match yet, and I’m an hour away from watching the highlights on Sky. I […]
