Johnny Drama Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Hopefully Strauss can pick up a few more runs this morning, normally he gets out early when he carries on after a 100 the next day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ananas Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Brilliant chase of 191 by Kolkata to win the IPL and prevent the back-to-back-to-back title wins for Chennai. Kind of nice to see Chennai not get rewarded for the millions they spent on Jadeja. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mr. potato head Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Brilliant chase of 191 by Kolkata to win the IPL and prevent the back-to-back-to-back title wins for Chennai. Kind of nice to see Chennai not get rewarded for the millions they spent on Jadeja. Great match all around. Didn't think Kolkata had a chance to match them, but they showed some tremendous skill.

Admin Lineker Posted June 1, 2012 Admin Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 England will begin the defence of the Ashes at Trent Bridge in July 2013. The opening game of the five-match series begins on 10 July with the second Test at Lord's next up from 18 July. Test cricket returns to Old Trafford for the third Test from 1 August while Durham hosts the penultimate match from 9 August. The series will end from 21 August at The Oval where England have clinched the urn for the last two home series. It will be another busy summer for England with a series against New Zealand in all three formats between 16 May and 27 June while the world's top eight teams will also contest the Champions Trophy at The Oval, Cardiff and Edgbaston during June. As well as the Test series, Australia will play two four-day warm-ups against Somerset and Worcestershire and further games against Sussex at Hove and Northampton. They will also face England in two Twenty20s and five one-day matches. England and Wales Cricket Board chief executive David Collier confirmed that a compromise deal has been reached which sees Glamorgan trade their Test for the Champions Trophy fixtures. Cardiff was originally scheduled to host the first Test of next summer against New Zealand but ticket sales for last summer's Test against Sri Lanka were disappointing and following discussions between the ECB, Glamorgan and the MCC, a decision has been reached. Collier said: "Wales has earned an outstanding reputation for its ability to deliver world-class sporting events and we are delighted that Cardiff will be used as a host venue for the ICC Champions Trophy and stage a semi-final."

Plubby Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 So, Old Trafford is where we get it back. It begins... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 England are going to end up losing this one dayer quite easily if they don't hurry up and start getting some runs on the board. 185-3 off 39.3 is far too slow a rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hornswoggle4PM Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Not necessarily, we've been scoring very slowly in the last few years, but with 7 wickets in hand they will pick up I'm sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 I think we'll be lucky to reach 250. Less than 4 overs to go now and we're on 225-4, Lee and Watson left to bowl. Aussies should easily knock that off, pitch is much better now than it was this morning when England came out to bat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Two sixes in a row from Morgan against Lee helps matters though >_> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrilla Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Shows what I know, on 250 inside an over after when I last posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrilla Posted June 30, 2012 Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 It was a really good win for England, good bowling performance. Quite looking forward to the rest of this series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
