Re: A Year of Scottish Cricket: 20twenty time!! That's terrific figures, 5 runs off 24 balls in a T20 match!

Re: New Zealand in England Even Colly admitted he shouldn't have done it afterwards but in the heat of the moment etc etc.

Re: England cut Zimbabwe cricket ties But the ICC have never shown any intention of doing that. They cut them from test cricket because they were not good enough, not because of politics.

Re: England cut Zimbabwe cricket ties Only problem is we can't ban teams from coming for international tournaments surely, like the Twenty20 in England later this year. So we can't ban them for that otherwise we won't be able to host the tournament.

Re: My Batting Start growing and those sixes will come in no time. Fail that, study the field beforehand and look where the gaps are, and in T20 cricket there are always going to be gaps. Try and work on all shots on a bowling machine, both back foot and front foot.

Re: New Zealand in England ODI series 1-1 after three matches (one rained off). Could go either way but a series draw looks likely.

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog We didn't play this weekend as a team pulled out just before the start of the season so there is an odd number of teams, so it was our turn to have a day off. Worked well for us as it rained so no-one else played anyway!

Re: Minging and beautiful cricket pitches Not that I know of. It could never be used at the weekend anyway. I must confess I generally play on the pitch (we have two) that is just to the left of the picture, which is just as nice without the crowd though. :p I have played on that pitch this...

Re: Minging and beautiful cricket pitches My ground.

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog We won again. Again we left it late but we got 25 more points. We lost the toss and batted. Our top 4 all contributed, with scores ranging from 20 to 40. I came in after 37 overs with the score on about 130 (from memory) and got off the mark with a cover drive...

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog Last 16 of the Twenty20 knockout last night. We went down in the final over. We batted first and put on 109, which always seemed a bit short. I batted at 5 and scored 12 with a couple of nice fours. Rubbish shot to get out with though, head up in air attempting a...

Re: Have you met any famous players? In what league did you play against Solanki, Mas? I've met him, briefly, before. Come to think of it did I ever say I play for Wolverhampton? Lol.

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog That might actually make more sense, but then everyone would just win the toss and bowl first, at least the way it is you have to choose between going for the full 25 points but with the risk you could only get the winning draw, or play safe and go for the 20 points.

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog The idea behind it is if you bat second you have the capacity to go for the losing draw, so you get less points for winning. To make it work you just have to abolish the losing draw, it just promotes negative cricket anyway. I mean, you get points for just...

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog The thing is we don't have that big a lead. The teams in 2nd and 3rd keep winning as well and cranking up the pressure, they are 4 and 19 points behind us respectively, with the team in 3rd having a game in hand (it's 20 or 25 points for a win, depending on who...

Re: New Zealand in England England win by an innings and nine runs for a 2-0 series victory. Saw none of the action so can't comment. :p

Re: The Wolfman's Cricket Blog Another day, another win. Unfortunately my form this season with the bat finally came to an end, I was out for five. The description of the opposition is a **** hole ground and a **** hole team, and that is putting it nicely. The ground is surrounded by dog...

Re: Player of the Month - June I think it is safe to say I don't believe you.
