Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

Yea they’re still pretty good but certainly know where their bread is buttered these days.

They’re incredible when making content on non India stuff though.

That's what I noticed. They are good other wise but the pandering has to stop.

I dunno, I reckon there's proper clicks and money to be made off Indian fans hate watching you.

Especially if it's credible. So rather than claiming India/Indian player is useless, just keep them in 3rd place of a comparison or pick them apart a bit. That's the sort of needle that keeps a fanbase coming back for more, because you might just throw them a bone.

Looks like we beat Zimbabwe in the first ODI.

He s gone from Chandismal to Chandigun again.

Not sure if it's been mentioned elsewhere, but I've just watched the Sky documentary series The Man Who Bought Cricket about the Stanford stuff (good word that). It only touches the surface of the damage and hurt caused to thousands of people, but Stuart Broad saying he's glad they didn't win the money was quite funny.

SA has the most exciting pace bowling combination atm. Ngidi, Rabada, Nortje, Jansen. They are going to be one of the reasons why SA will not just fade away in test cricket like the West Indies and Sri Lanka.

I still hope SL and WI find a way to build a strong test team.

Ashes is all hype.

In which @Richard's theory goes viral

Labuschagne - lucky, and making the most of it

Who cashes in on fielders' gifts the most, who doesn't - this is what the numbers say

Somebody needs to run those numbers for Nicholls

I really want to find a way to defame people who use statistics in sports to come up with weird comparisons. Just shut the **** up and enjoy the bloody game.

I would make an exception for the author of the linked article though, must have taken a lot of effort to find out these numbers.

And so the ridiculous drinking culture in English cricket continues: https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/...toxicated-people-in-hobart-team-hotel-1297388

Oh no not drinking culture

remember when Boonie downed 52 cans on a single flight to an Ashes tour

 

[RossTaylorsBox]

Yeah he also fined a guy for swearing too.

 

[cnerd123]

**** yea SL 25/2

I have no idea haha

But this is a shame and a disgrace considering England were continuously hammered this tour and yet thought it ok to drink till 6am. Clowns the lot of them.

 

[Arachnodouche]

Can't think of many better reasons to drink than the horror tour England's endured.

 

[Chubb]

ALL HAIL!

 

[cnerd123]

Good result that. SL suck.

 

[TheJediBrah]

SL probably worse than BD now
