Opinion NMFC Board Cricket Thread III

[Nate7]

Are you taking a bat?

Just in case. The selectors might need to have a look.

I can bowl left arm unorthodox spin, right arm offspin, right arm medium pace and bat left handed.
Am I a chance?

More of a chance than most, mate.


Funnily enough, I can bowl left arm medium, right arm medium, right arm off spin, bat right handed and throw left handed.

We should be a lock for the team!

 

[Samsquanch]

I can bat just as well left handed as I can right handed.

Whats ya slips catching like? Smudge has had a stinker in first slip

Did I happen to tell you I had the 4th best bowling figures in the country for the week just before Christmas?

Only because of Auto Wicky

 

[Themanbun]

I don’t get the hype with Morris, he bowls low 140’s which is quick but not express.

There should be a few in front of him.

Agree.

Shame Richardson's shoulder has been on and off cooked.

Boland like ?

Ol' Sunny never recovered from DK's rudimentary introduction of 3rd umpiring, which failed to pick up his alleged inside edge.
And never tell Sunny to get lost, or he will, taking his partner with him.

Spent the last 30 mins of the '86 Madras tied test drinking chai and bantering with a bunch of blokes around a radio in a fabric shop in Varanasi -- the ecstasy! the agony! the hilarity! ... [the ha$i$h!]

Got caught up in a nice riot outside the ground in New Delhi for an India vs Aust one-dayer, futilely waving grandstand tickets as the lathi-wielding mounted police cleared the road outside our gate with a charge. Apparently a whole pile of clowns had climbed the fence and filled the stand and it was too much trouble to eject them, whereas we were easier to drive off.

1986, the dustbowl of Pushkar; a Rajasthani southpaw punishing a half-tracker:

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Boland like ?

Better.

 

[SpiderBurton22]

Agree.

Shame Richardson's shoulder has been on and off cooked.

He's a gun and the selectors obviously want him back given they put him in the last Test squad on the back of 1 Shield and 1 Big Bash game.

Watching him the other night he looks like he's been in the gym, very big in the chest and shoulders.

This reads like you have a limited understanding of cricket. But you've come to the right forum for help!
Let's start with the first one - they're laws in cricket, not rules.

About the Laws of Cricket | MCC

MCC are the custodians of the Laws of Cricket and are responsible for the debating, decision making and drafting of the Laws.

www.lords.org

Think Ill be happy just to call it a great catch and be happy the batsmen is out rather than read through that long list of laws/rules .

You and I can go with with my snail-pace-slow-swing and float-away-in-space leg spin and have our own competition… with black jack… and hookers

Mightn't get get Tuesday. Covers are off and it's looking very green. Good toss to win.

 

[Samsquanch]

I will not believe anything about the weather until I hear it directly from Nate7 , AKA the Rain Man.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

how much longer do we think Hazelwood and Starc will hang around? Hazelwood seems to be picking up niggles often.

Other than Boland who’d be next in line for the test side?

Jyhe Richardson
Spencer Johnson (can’t believe he is 29 y.o)
Lance Morris
Jordan Buckingham

They're keen on Fergus but have him working on his pace.

Agree, he is very skilled but 125kph doesn't usually cut it in Test cricket.

Reckon they've still got at least 2 years. They'll manage their loads/play less white ball cricket.
