Things I never thought I'd hear on cricket commentary:
“A change of bowling. Forbes coming on at the Strathearn end.”
If you’re from East Belfast, you'll understand ☺️
If you're not (highly likely), I’ll inform you that Strathearn is a girls’ grammar school in the Belmont area of East Belfast. https://www.strathearn.org.uk
When I was first thinking about joining a cricket club in my teens I went to a net practice session at CIYMS in Belmont. In the end I joined Civil Service at Stormont. As it was within walking distance of my house.
I recall hitting one of the CIYMS batters on the hand at the practice. He suspected a broken finger 😬
Three huge sports events tomorrow morning (Eastern time) that I hope I will catch:
7:45 am: 🏎️ F1 - Monaco Grand Prix. Verstappen is not in pole for this one, so maybe someone else has a chance this time? (Prediction: no)
10:00 am: 🏏 IPL Final - Kolkata Knight Riders vs. Sunrisers Hyderabad. A rock-solid KKR vs. an explosive SRH team.
12:45 pm: 🏎️ Indy 500. I never get to watch this. Maybe I'll finally get to see it this year?
@grayson I don't know about Android. The iOS app works well enough. The stream itself can be hinky and sometimes has to be restarted, but that seems to be an infrastructure issue, not an issue with the app or web platform.
Apparently the games from the Cricket T20 World Cup from the Caribbean and the USA will be broadcast on the ICC website in Europe (and maybe elsewhere).
Not available in the UK and Ireland as Sky Sports have the rights and will be streaming them on NowTV.
