Banter The WCE Cricket Banter Thread (Ball tampering permitted)

This looks ominous. 400+ incoming.

Wonder if the author got a payoff from the SA Cricket Board for that hatchet job.

They also spoke about CSA's mismanagement of the game, so probably not.

Successfully jinxed. England with a paltry 386.

 

[W.C. Fry]

About ready to give up on sport today.

Batsmen better come to the party. Going to be chasing 350+

Far out. Bloody India have our number these days.

We just recently knocked them off 3-2. In India

Pot luck on those subcontinent goat tracks.

Way more class than us on a proper wicket. Watch Bumra skittle our top order...

 

[Biggie]

Pot luck on those subcontinent goat tracks.

Yikes, way to understate that result.

NCN! Got im!

My reverse moz is exquisite and you don't have the grace to say thanks.

Hello, I'd like to order a much improved batting performance. Do you deliver to London? Someone will be waiting outside the players' entrance at Kennington Oval. Just look for the gnome in green and gold.

 

[RookiePick]

Keep them under 330 and who knows

Looking like our game against Sydney wont be our only hammering today.

 

[RookiePick]

Starc is a seriously s**t bowler at the death if we are under the cosh.

If we're lucky, they might manage to draw things out enough that technically we won't have been hammered until tomorrow, AWST (the only timezone that matters).

 

[W.C. Fry]

This is either going to be so very very fun or so very very s**t.

Thinking it's going to be a good chase but we just fall about 10 runs short.

 

[FKASC]

Aus batsmen will make this easily

 

[W.C. Fry]

Bit of luck already. Warner played ball down off his back foot and hit base of stumps quite hard but bails didn't move.

 

[Cuzz09]

If we chase this down it'll be epic

Fold the country.

Protecting the NRR it seems. Good to see this format causing previously unseen issues.

So is Warner struggling with:

• The step up in bowling quality from the domestic T20 circuit?
• The booing?
• His place in the team now?
• Everything?

He's never performed well in England. Or anywhere overseas for that matter.

Ends up it was bad luck the bails didn't dislodge!

South Africa need to drop Amla

Khawaja should never have been pushed aside to accomodate him, he gave up his spot through his own stupidity and should have had to wait for a spot to open up or force his way in by performing in the lead up games. Pissweak by Langer.
