Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

Bloke who bowled unchanged for 32 overs? impressive feat

 

[Burgey]

Jesus, he was still going around in the late 20s and taking bags. That's impressive AF.

 

[TheJediBrah]

Obviously took his multivitamin

 

[Burgey]

Might have been the only bloke in history to overcome the Curse of Swisse.

 

[Bolo]

He's about 56 years old for this game. Clearly showing his age though- if you look at the RSA second innings, there is one over Barnes elected not to bowl. No legs on him at all.

 

[Burgey]

We should discuss whether his playing in a weaker batting side meant he was denied more chances to bowl in second innings, which meant his wpm stat suffered. What do you guys think?

Hadlee wasn't playing. The question is meaningless.

 

[Gnske]

Can we stop getting sidelined here and get back to personally attacking each other?

 

[GoodAreasShane]

Kinda interesting to see a Morkel opening the bowling too

 

[Engle]

" They aren't batting well enough for me to get them out " - so said Barnes in a match where he struggled to get some inept tailenders out.
Try starting a debate on this.

 

[Starfighter]

I can vouch for the truth of that phenomenon.

 

[Burgey]

I think Hadlee had the same problem. Yeah

To be fair to Whitney he digs out the 4th ball and defends that last two well.


But we all know that the last over vs Whitney should not have needed to be bowled.

Yeah

New Compton-Edrich stands but they are not playing the 100,

Why is it that when you search for almost any cricketer on google, one of the first autocomplete suggestions is "*insert cricketers name* wife"

For some reason I most prominently get that with cricketers from the subcontinent, and India is particular, or those who have played a lot of IPL. I'll also get 'marriage' and even 'hairstyle', and it's the same on youtube. Makes it quite annoying trying to find videos of someone bowling or batting, and let's not start on the actually cricket related, but clickbaity videos.

Any idea on how good he is?

 

[Victor Ian]

Is he a bowler? It makes sense. Imagine playing with your dad where you get a bat when you get him out? He would have had huge amounts of bowling practice.
