Play can go on during light rain. It's when it is heavy that the players come off and the covers go on.Yeah but cricket doesn't differentiate that way.

It's actually surprisingly close in the summer months.
Obviously the source is 100% legit and I will be taking no questions at this stage

Brad Hodge is racing around Sandown in a Hyundai Excel in the vic state Excel championship today
That is certainly not a collection of words I ever thought I would be using in the same sentence

What formula is that?

Honestly it is real grassroots level stuff, someone a few years back had the bright idea of taking the surplus of shitbox Excels around, sticking a rollcage in them, and going racing. It's really about as cheap and entry level as motorsports gets, but a few young guys have started there in recent years before rapidly going on to bigger and better things
None of the other drivers in that particular the field are particularly notable, Hodge was still firmly at the back though.

fmd. I thought that was such a funny joke and it just sits there in deadly silence and now gets a ****ing serious answer.

In the following scenarios, can you correctly determine whether the striker is (o)ut or (n)ot out?

A nice 'you are the umpire' quiz. I got 7 wrong, despite ostensibly being a trained umpire, so it's not easy.

Adam Gilchrist pulverised the South African attack with the fastest Test double-century at the time, in Johannesburg. He got to the landmark off his 212th delivery, hitting the 19th four of his innings. At one point, when he was on 169, Gilchrist aimed for an advertising hoarding that promised a bar of gold to anyone who hit it, by scooping a length delivery to it. He missed by a few feet but it showed how he was just playing with the South African bowling that was sans Shaun Pollock, and for parts of the match an injured Allan Donald (who retired from Tests after the game). South Africa went down by an innings and 360 runs - the second-heaviest defeat in Tests - but Gilchrist's record was overtaken three weeks later by Nathan Astle against England. "
