  • I think those speed guns are a load of crap. Somehow the white ball goes faster - I bowled 83-84mph in the Test match, and 93mph in the one-dayers. It's crazy. I hadn't bowled a ball for ten days.

    Keith has a mass of photos from an event hosted by Bunbury Cricket Club for the charity Aspire. All sorts were there: Harry Judd (who is he?), Chris Cairns, James Major and more. Looks like a jolly good time was had by all…but this shot is perhaps the best of the bunch with a father and son looking for the lost ball.

    Tsunami match at Lords: the Teams

    By Will 3 years ago, mid-June, 3 Comments »

    The team-sheet for tomorrow’s game has changed since it was announced a month ago - here’re the finalised teams:

    MCC: SP Fleming (captain); CH Gayle, S Ganguly, VVS Laxman, JH Kallis, A Flower, KC Sangakarra, SM Pollock, A Kumble, H Singh, S Akhtar.

    International XI: BC Lara (captain), V Sehwag, ST Jayasuriya, GC Smith, RS Dravid, S Chanderpaul, CL Cairns, SK Warne, WPUJC Vaas, M Sami, N Ntini.

    Some handy players there. Looking forward, in particular, to seeing Laxman (whose name I think is pronounced correctly as “Latchman”?), Gayle, Shoaib, Sehwag and Cairns. The rest? Well, they’re just making up the numbers, aren’t they?
