death to fireworks already

 

[Jono]

are you kidding me Renegades

 

[Stapel]

I've been in situation like that a couple of months back. I was running in from the boundary to take a catch. Half a second before taking it, a team mate crossed my line. I hadn't called it, as I didn't even realise he was trying to catch it too. Thta happens, when keeping your eyes on the ball.....

Wonder if we are tempted by Pietersen for World T20. Almost certainly not, and we have no shortage of good batsmen to be fair.

Wonder if South Africa will be tempted for the one after that.

 

[91Jmay]

No chance he plays for a transformation era team. Absolutely no way their board pick him.

Yes in the end KP pretty much said he left the country because of quotas, how the hell he'd get back after saying that now is pretty inconceivable.

I don't think PEWS was being serious though, but TBH it's about as serious as any suggestion of KP playing for England nowadays, it wasn't that long ago when I'd have been happy to see him play in the T20 WC, but he just keeps on slagging off England selectors and players.

We do have some options too, I mean if KP was picked ahead of James Taylor what message does that send out?

 

[91Jmay]

I'd rather have Root, Morgan and Buttler as our middle order than KP. Much better players.

Only way i'd pick him is as an opener over Roy, but then again I want Ali to open so we have more spin bowling.

So yeah, **** him. We don't need him.

i'm taking a friend to the game tonight - pretty keen for midwicket seats... **** being at square leg.

is it safe to just buy them at the door? or should i get them online. do the bay13 type seats sell out?

 

[Jarquis]

Don't know whether to go tonight or tomorrow.

Keen to go to th SCG. Less keen to watch the Heat again

Probably go tomorrow and then the ODI on the 23rd

 

[Jarquis]

Would love to go next Saturday but I went and got a ****ing job

[Spikey]

i too am not going tonight because of the heat. may go to the thunder match tomorrow.

sydney smash is almost sold out too btw

 

[Gnske]

As if the Blunder are going to be any better.

 

[Spikey]

i won't be there for the thunder, baby

 

[Jono]

you guys reckon Sixers are almost definites vs the Heat? I dunno, their team selection has been odd all tournament.

 

[Spikey]

oh they'll probably lose. but even when the heat were good, they sucked to watch. i'm not watching them live now!

 

[Jono]

Haha.

If Sixers win are they still alive in the tournament?

 

[morgieb]

Haha.

If Sixers win are they still alive in the tournament?

Yes. Especially when you take into account how dire the Hurricanes NRR is.

thanks for that spikey. just found out we're meeting 2 people there who have general admission tickets so now i guess it doesn't matter. square leg boundaries it is
