Finished work and now at the G. Windies have just lost a wicket and are 5/169 in the 37th over. Australia is sporting a new-look bowling team featuring Adam Zampa.
So. I’m still thinking of getting a new Honda CRF300L (Pictured). But probably not until after the winter.
And I’m still considering playing cricket next season.
I’ll be 60 going on 20 in April 2024. Thinking about writing about returning to Enduro bikes and cricket at 60. There can’t be many people who have done that 🤪
Another thing you don’t see often. A stumping were the keeper has to remove a stump from the ground with the ball in their hands because they dislodged the bails before they caught the ball.
I bought a white Kookaburra cricket ball. I’ve never held one before and wanted to see what they are like. It was all red ball when I played. The red ball in the pictures is a 20 year old red Kookaburra I used in the nets. #cricket
Cripes. New Zealand scored 401 for 6 against Pakistan.
For 6.
If Pakistan don’t get 402 then Pakistan, England, Sri Lanka, and The Netherlands will be mathematically unable to qualify for the World Cup semifinals stage.
The video highlights guy (or gal) is not going to be happy, but this bowling effort from #Australia from the 11th over onwards has been one, as they say, for the ages.
Only 3 overs from 32 (so far) have gone for more than 6 runs. Completely throttled the dangerous #India batting attack. Wonderfully disciplined line and length under extreme pressure.
So, people who know more about #cricket than me, are Compton and Gay, amongst others, signs of the renaissance of the opener, or are the pitches just too tame? 🏏 #CountyChampionship
