Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

[Burgey]

Hopefully Sachin Tendulkar can shed some light on what was actually said

This an uncharacteristically good post from Daemon too.

It was at Cardiff 2015, so,

C J L Rogers
D A Warner
S P D Smith
M J Clarke*
A C Voges
S R Watson
N M Lyon
B J Haddin†
M G Johnson
M A Starc
J R Hazlewood

Just to stick the boot in, you go and remind us that Voges played for Australia. Fmd.

He also played for Middlesex.

It will probably be Warner or Haddin. Don't see anyone else being stupid enough to say what was said out loud.

My money's on Haddin.

I don't think Haddin would be the one. Seems to be the type to just talk **** and annoy everyone, being outright rude at times (or coming across that way), but not actually "crossing the line" as it were.

It'd have to have been Warner or Haze. Possibly Starc. I'd say Lyon too but I don't think he's smart enough to come up with it.

What am I supposed to be looking at

 

[TheJediBrah]

That a team is called "Federally Administered Tribal Areas" is what gets me

Pakistani FC cricket is the most confusing thing ever. It's like a 12-sided rubix cube

There are five Afridis. That's quite a lot, even though I can imagine it is a very common name in that part of the country.

There are some seriously weird and wonderful team names in Pakistan domestic cricket, Water and Power Development Authority springs to mind

WAPDA is a great acronym to say out loud. Pakistan International Airlines is my favourite for some reason, although Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited is close.

Can you make heads or tails of Pakistan FC cricket though?

 

[vcs]

Nah.

I think they should be favourites to win the Asia Cup, which probably means they'll fail to make the finals now.

This 100 has resurfaced. The latest developments are,

- trials happening (as I speak) at Trent Bridge (men) and Loughborough (women), trying out various wacky experiments with sub fielders, 10 ball overs etc etc. The trials involve players not appearing in tomorrow's cc fixtures. They seem to be ''North v South'' fixtures.

- ECB have copyrighted ''the hundred'' in Asia, Australia etc. (how much of this is to do with them conceding control of Twenty20 to India then?).

- County chairmen are pissed and will have a big meeting on 27th September.
