Three cheers to Ryder

By Will 6 months ago Add your comment below

Enjoyable piece at the New Zealand Herald on Jesse Ryder, the affable badboy of New Zealand cricket who’s finally admitted to enjoying his drink more than is healthy. He took no part in last night’s one-dayer, other than to carry the drinks. As befitting New Zealanders’ dry sense of humour, they picked up on the irony:

The loudest cheer of the first hour of play was reserved for when Ryder, at the end of the seventh over of yesterday’s one-day international against the West Indies at Eden Park, took drinks out to his team-mates.

Even he must have been surprised by the warmth of the crowd, given he is trying the patience of his team-mates and paymasters.

Everyone loves a rebel

    I should imagine him, Fred, Symonds and Gibbs would have a cracking night out together.
