IgnisExcubitor Posted December 28, 2019 Author Posted December 28, 2019 Yeah, saw Danish's interview for an Indian news show where he praised Inzy. Makes sense. He had a temper, Inzy, but he always came across as a nice guy. I assumed it because Shoaib said captain. Anyways, one player who definitely must have discriminated against Danish would be Afridi. Here, he is justifying smashing his television because his daughter watched an aarti (fairly normal Hindu ritual which isn't always used for Gods) on an Indian television series. Just earlier this year, I remember Afridi coming on Indian television and not apologising for his misogynistic views about not wanting women to play cricket. Quote
Azeem Posted December 28, 2019 Posted December 28, 2019 Kaneria has opened about his spot fixing scandal, he accepts he tempted other players in Essex for fixing but says that the guy who got him into all of this use to come on official tours, so he feels he was trapped while also accepting his mistake. I can understand him feeling that justice isn't done when Amir made a comeback while he has been completely shunned. Amir got a lenient punishment because he confessed and because of his age both of these factors weren't there in Kaneria, Asif and Salman Butt's case all well established players i mean Asif was arguably the best bowler we've had since Waqar, Wasim, Kaneria was the fourth highest wicket taker in Tests when he got involved in this, Salman Butt was the captain. They spent enough time playing at the highest level, they should have known better. They have no one to blame than themselves if we are being honest. Quote

Administrator Stan Posted January 4, 2020 Administrator Posted January 4, 2020 That is one scary looking South African bowling attack. Quote
Azeem Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 ICC plans to reduce international test cricket to 4 days, after seeing that quite a lot of matches between even equally matched opponents are decided by the fourth day. Quote

Yeah hope this shit idea fucks off. Doesn't need to change at all. Some big players are against it though which is good. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted January 7, 2020 Administrator Posted January 7, 2020 Always delivers. First innings with the catches. Then the fireworks in the batting to enhance the lead. Now the wickets at the key time. Quality cricketer. Special mention to Sibley. Have England finally found a decent opening partnership for when Burns returns? Quote

Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted January 24, 2020 Subscriber Posted January 24, 2020 PMSL listening to a lady on the ITV News reporting Ben Stokes appears to be involved in an altercation during the fourth Test, she said "apparently Ben Stokes was walking off the pitch after getting bowled out for two and had an altercation with an Sth African supporter and said come and say that outside you expletive 4 eyed expletive..." in other words "come outside you **** and say that you 4 eyed ****ard..."

Administrator Stan Posted January 24, 2020 Administrator Posted January 24, 2020 Stokes can be a right cunt sometimes. He's a phenomenal cricketer but appears to have a short fuse. Quote
Azeem Posted January 25, 2020 Posted January 25, 2020 Isn't challenging people to a street fight in South Africa is a different ball game than in England Quote

Stokes and the media will say he was uptight and frustrated about getting out on 2 or he was worrying about his father's ill health or whatever, but apparently he has apologized as per normal, cough, cough Quote
Administrator Stan Posted January 29, 2020 Administrator Posted January 29, 2020 doubt anyone else is watching but great match in the end between NZ & India ODI. NZ were cruising with Williamson's 95 and they needed 10 off 7 at one stage. Shami gets 2 wickets in the final 3 balls and takes it to a Super Over! NZ should have won that comfortably. Our fielding has been horrid. Quote
Administrator Stan Posted January 29, 2020 Administrator Posted January 29, 2020 SUPER OVER WIN! NZ lose another!! 17-0 in theirs and India needed 10 off 2 to win. Sharma steps up and hits 2 HUGE sixes! Quote
Administrator Stan Posted January 29, 2020 Administrator Posted January 29, 2020 Nice touch and respect from NZ. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/cricket/51298905 (can also be seen as 'we'll bowl you out and deny you a ton and get you off the pitch straight after ) Quote
Azeem Posted February 9, 2020 Posted February 9, 2020 Has Babar Azam officially replaced Joe Root in the big four ? Quote

Not sure but Shah, who I believe is only 16 (?), grabs a hat-trick on Test debut against Bangladesh. Not a bad way to introduce yourself on to the scene! Like a batsman getting a double-ton on Test debut, that. 1 Quote

He is a Pathan who like Africans have features that make them look like older than they actually are but that said i doubt he's 16 probably 18/19 Edited February 9, 2020 by Azeem Quote
