Idle cricket musing

[mockney piers]

It was an absolute cracker.

Enjoyed in Hoopers where there were three sporting occasions to choose from!!

Only the England Cricket team could go from cruising home to victory, to collapse and probable defeat, to drawing it on the last ball....all within 30mins. Genius or chaos....i can't decide

Are there places showing the World Cup other than Hoopers?

[mockney piers]

CPT is usually pretty cricket friendly.

[V511]

Thanks Mockney, will check it out (tu)

Narnia - up for a little WM bet?

Rather good opening over from our (their?) lads.

[Atticus]

Shite

[mockney piers]

wow. can't wait for the highlights tonight.

looks like the irish lads are a little pegged back suddenly, but still very doable if they can hold their nerve.

[Brendan]

Come on Ireland!

[mockney piers]

bugger!

[Atticus]

Great, thoroughly deserved win for the Irish. A kick up the arse for the prme dona centrally contracted English.

[Keef]

Finished with a 4 too. Fair play.

[Mick Mac]

What should we sing? Is Molly Malone a cricket song?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Oh, so glad Narnia didn't read this thread.

Well done Ireland - cracking finish. O'Brien was superb.

[Narnia]

Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...........we'll stuff youse at rugby too! Sorry I couldn't see it but have it set to record highlights. Fastest century in ODI's ...............Winston Churchill, Maggie Thatcher..............your boys took one hell of a beating!

[Tarot]

When Irish eyes are smiling. Well done.

[Atticus]

celebrating in team hotel with the victors, going to be a late one!

New 5 live cricket programme is to be called 6 0'6.

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

I caught the highlights last night. WI were amazing.

[Brendan]

Anyone else see this on the paper yesterday?

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

Ah Brendan, one swallow does not a summer make.

[Narnia]

No,but two swallows and beating the Dutch will make a Summer. I see the ICC are reducing the numbers in future to ten teams. Was this an England proposal?

[Brendan]

Yeah. They don't want to play the next one.

[Narnia]

Looks like SA will beat SA'b' quite easily!
