If I had to learn cricket all over again I'd just bat left handed because I can put weight on a bent right leg fine.

on 7, Greg Blewett is actually saying Harris should be replaced. This is why Blewy didn't make it like Warney, Gilly and co
Ponting was fairly critical of Harris' front foot during his earlier commentary stint so even though he's strongly backed Harris, his thoughts will be interesting

I could understand persisting with Harris if was a promising youngster but he’s neither of those things

Didn't get anywhere near the pitch of it and had to stretch well just to get bat on that pie.

Just thinking of all the sixes over long on Joe Burns would have hit by now.

He mows too.

Good egg, talks too fast though.
What are you paying him? There’s good value in cashies for retirees. You can pay them massive unders and they’re happy with it because they (stupidly) think they’re still a productive member of society. Plus they’re having a win cos no tax paid.

The important thing from your pov is that you’re prepared to criticise him if his work isn’t up to standard, even if it’s 38 Celsius and he’s 85 years old.

This is probably my favourite Burgey post.

$100 a month. Recently told him off for not removing a wasps' nest so I think I've got that covered.

The big break big issue on Fox is “the importance of touring the lesser cricket nations” and I have a warm feeling in my loins hearing that sort of talk, knowing how much it’ll piss off the supporters of those nations on here.

A truly #savage segment.

To be fair after this summer, some better nations touring here wouldn't be too bad. Afghanistan was a big loss

Somewhat disappointed that story about David Bairstow told by renowned racist Michael Vaughan painted Vaughan in an objectively sympathetic light

Howie should have asked him the ethnicity of the driver. Would have explained a lot.

Should be noted the lesser nations referred to were Pakistan, Bangladesh and SL. Obvious omission from the list being India but the commentators seemed to agree it’s important to tour those places “for the god of the game.”

not sure I necessarily agree tbh but it is what it is
