I'll give you a clue. Ra'is is the arabic word for president.

He's got my vote. Again, so glad we bat down to 9.

He's been dead for 4 years! Or maybe he faked his own death, changed his first name from Yasser to Yasir, and embarked on an awesome cricketing career. Or something.

You should have a posting-ID change.

 

[Scaly piscine]

Hmm Durham were going to play Yorkshi*e, then it changed to Notts and now it's been changed again to Glamorgan...

Good stuff.

 

[fredfertang]

Why cant Lanky get back in as best losers?

 

[Aamir Alauddin]

Haha, if this guy lasts to 100 posts I shall be surprised

Look at my post number and your sense.

Seriously beginning to wonder if Surrey are going to win a CC match this year. They had Notts 207-6 following on, then a stand of 165 by Patel and Swann took the home team to safety. And they had Ealham in reserve.

Saqlain wicketless in 17 overs on a last-day track, very disappointing after picking up three cheap ones in the first dig. He is Surrey's leading wicket-taker this season, not that that's saying much.

Missing Mark Butcher, clearly. What's he done to himself this time?

 

[stumpski]

Butch hasn't played for a while now, here's why -

Seems to be getting more injury-prone in his mid-30s, not a good sign obviously.

 

[Richard]

Daym. As he says in that piece - he'd made a stack of runs in the previous couple of weeks.

Laaaaaaaaaaancashire!!!

Laaaaaaaaaaancashire!!!!!!!!!

FFS, CW is more awash with Lancastrians than I ever thought Lancashire was.

We love our cricket. How dare the ECB take it away from us.
