No worries, @looker-on. The average maximum at the current meteorological site for June to August here is 19.0 degrees with the average minimum being 8.3 degrees. Most of the time the maximum hovers between 16 and 22 degrees during winter, it rarely drops below 15 degrees during the day here...

Where I am, maximum temperatures were 0.2 degrees above average for June to August while minimum temperatures were 0.5 degrees above the average for the same period. Rainfall was basically average (a couple of millimetres less than usual). The forecast for October through to January is for a...

So Geelong vs Sydney in the Grand Final. Melbourne's second half of the season was poor and exited the finals in straight sets. Geelong will go into the game as favourites but Sydney have had a very good second half of the season, as have the Cats. Should be a great game no doubt on Saturday...

ESPNcricinfo has been doing this for quite some time now. Below is a recent example from the third ODI between Australia and New Zealand. As you can see, Kane Williamson was run out, courtesy of a throw from Marnus Labuschagne to Alex Carey behind the stumps who whipped off the bails with...

Spring has certainly come through over the past weekend with temperatures in the mid 20's. In other news, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology has declared a La Nina for the coming summer, the third in a row. There's been a total of three consecutive La Nina events previously since reliable...

Yes, I scored for a number of years with the hard-copy scorebook and pens. The association my club is part of is transitioning towards online scoring and most clubs have been provided with computer tablets to score through the online system here MyCricket. A number of the higher grades have...

The average temperature for August 2022 was 18.6 degrees. Lowest maximum was 12.4 degrees which is very rare.

I am. If any posts breach the site rules, please report them. Anyone blatantly spreading false or misleading information will be disciplined.

The last few weeks has seen a fair bit of rain but it has cleared as of a couple of days ago with some partly cloudy and mostly sunny days to come for at least the next week. Daytime temperatures expected from the high teens to the higher part of the low 20's.

It's garbage cricket. I absolutely cannot stand it, refuse to watch it or even read about it. Hopefully it doesn't catch on anywhere else and is consigned to history sooner or later.

I knew, it wasn;t mentioned on the telecast heading into the late Sunday night/Monday morning events that Australia could very well win their 1,000th Commonwealth Games gold medal. Great to hear in the morning that they got it done overnight. Australia also won the Men's hockey final 7-0...

I have watched some of it so far and it has been quite good to watch. I've always enjoyed the Commonwealth Games, certainly some talented athletes around for those countries within the Commonwealth. Australia still leading the medal tally and also the overall tally, England are second with...

Today's earlier game was between Sri Lanka and South Africa in Group B with both sides out of contention to make the semi finals. Sri Lanka were sent in by South Africa and were rolled for 46 from 17.1 overs, Nadine de Klerk claimed 3/7 from four overs while Masabata Klass picked up 2/7 from...

India were far too good for Barbados last night. India reached 4/162 from their 20 overs thanks to 56 not out off 46 balls from Jemimah Rodrigues, Shafali Verma smacked 43 from 26 balls opening the innings while Deepti Sharma chipped in with 34 from 28 deliveries. In reply, Barbados made 8/62...

Australia notched an easy win over Pakistan, winning by 44 runs today. Australia struggled a bit early on but Beth Mooney and Tahlia McGrath got going to push Australia to 2/160 from their 20 overs. Mooney scored 70 not out from 49 balls with McGrath was not out on 78 from 51 deliveries. In...

England were too good for Sri Lanka a few days ago while India thrashed arch rival Pakistan and Australia cruised past Barbados without much fuss over the past couple of days. England then knocked off South Africa and New Zealand defeated Sri Lanka with both sides winning comfortably in...

Barbados proved too good for Pakistan last night thanks to the efforts of Kycia Knight (62*) and Hayley Matthews (51) with the bat. Nida Dar (50*) tried to lift Pakistan late but was left with too much work to do after Pakistan were reduced to 4/49 from 10.4 overs. The Group B matches started...

The additional traffic on it of late hasn't helped and the rain we've had in the last couple of weeks hasn't aided things either. There's not much of a reprieve in the next week with Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday going to be rather wet. The ground needs some dry days and some sun to help repair...

An excellent win by Australia all things considered. I thought they did well to restrict India after they got off to a very good start so to keep India to 8/154 was a pretty reasonable effort in the end led by Jess Jonassen with 4/22. Australia had a very poor start with the bat but the middle...

Could very much argue that four of the last five games that Richmond haven't won they should have. That would have them in fourth place at the moment and challenging for a top four spot rather than sitting in 10th place. Have to win at least three of their last four games at an absolute minimum...
