Cricket videos on Youtube

By Will 3 years ago, mid-May Add your comment below

As has been well discussed, Youtube is the tardis of online video, and there is an awful lot of tripe there as a result. But in between the mundane crap there are some priceless and rare gems, and one particular user was a guaranteed supplier of the better material. Cougarcricket was his name. He is now in the past, either missing in action or dead. Or, more likely, banned by Percy and pals in their blind and insatiable corporate greed to run the planet their own way. Soon, we’ll all have golf courses under the sea (or whatever Ian Chappell’s recent brilliant quote was). What the ICC have failed to realise is the internet is not a Zimbabwe, or any other cricket board; with it being essentially an ungovernable medium, people are continuing to upload whatever they like, as they should do.

So we need a replacement to Mr Cougar, and / or a list of the latest and greatest cricket clips. Your nominations, please.

    Just go onto Youtube and do a search – ‘Botham, Headingley, 1981′ for example…

    Youtube will do more to spread cricket than the ICC can ever do. Now, Slovaks, Magyars, Chinese, Botswanans, and Burmese can tune in and learn about the game.

    Well, if you want a taste of English County cricket, visit surrey.tv. Lancs and Sussex also have video feeds but subscription is 20 UKP per season.

    I have become a bit of a Surrey fan thanks largely to the entertaining commentary by Mark Church and Trevor Jones on BBC Radio London. Listen to the match, watch the highlights later. All games archived. Tune in tomorrow. The ever gorgeous Ramprakash is on 44*.
