Don't get me wrong....
Jul. 27th, 2009 08:37 pmI'm very happy we're through to finals day, but it now means I won't get to Canterbury for *ages*
( Twenty20 South Africa v India, Trent Bridge in which I saw Graeme runs, Herschelle drank juice and South Africans were awesome yet again )
On another note: If you're going to turn up at a cricket match with 8 overs left, quite drunk and then attempt to chat me up, asking a stupid question ("so what brings you here?") and touching my leg repeatedly until I kick you in the ankle is not the way to do it.

Thank God for Graeme Smith not being Stuart Broad.
Oh, Thank God.

indian_skimmer to restrain me, but I couldn't have managed it sitting by myself. I might have killed someone.

I'm not sure I see the point in a Pro20 tournament if there's no Graeme Smith.
It's like an old friend....
Jan. 9th, 2007 10:38 amI turned on to see England at 41-3 chasing 221 and I actually burst out laughing. It's so nice to have that weight of expectation lifted.
Also, in the interests of making bizarre and irrational statements about wicket keepers - everyone else has been doing it for so long I may as well join in now - I'm backing Nixon to win this one for us.
I'm mainly backing Nixon because he has Entirely Correct Opinions About Geraint Jones and is therefore a Good Person but also because he's old, and if cricket isn't a sport for old and/or fat people, I don't want a part of it.
