I'm a true cricket fan, I like watching cricket weather it's village green or International, it's just this ammount of OD cricket is sorta taking away the "special" element International cricket is supposed to have.lord_of_darkness said:Okay guys this is quite foolish , saying that cricket being played in the TVS cup is usless
Not quite , first of all its cricket played by all its normal rules so its normal cricket ! and its exciting still cause if u are a true cricket supporter u will find a normal cricket game exciting !
And plus if u go to a country like bangladesh and expect loads of prize money for winners etc u are dumb since there are lots of poor people there in the country that need the money than some rich cricketters..
For bangladesh cricket its good , as every game they can get more international practise with good teams , and for the people of bangladesh its good aswell a good day to come watch a game with mates lose some of the stress of the day..
Finally Cricket is Cricket , aslong as there is no corruption and its all going fair , let the game go on, im enjoying it so why complain?
C'mon Marc, he is only human after all! Even he can't be expected to fail all the time! Don't worry, he will make a grand comeback, true AA style...!!!marc71178 said:I just fear he's becoming too good.
Over here you are starved of actual cricket coverage unless you have Sky, so every Test and the CC games are all followed either on TV or by Teletext and the papersMr Mxyzptlk said:It detracts from the Test cricket too. or instance, here in the Caribean, we spend weeks and weeks in anticipation and excitement preceding a Test against the Aussies. This year, for alot of people I know, it was more like "when is that Test match starting? What? Yesterday?"
We just don't get the same buildup to a Test or a series as before. There's just too much cricket in general.
Erm, C4?Rik said:Over here you are starved of actual cricket coverage unless you have Sky

Oh I didn't realise Ch4 were showing live coverage of the winter Tests and ODIs...my mistake...you know, sitting listening to the radio until the early hours most nights suddenly seems a really dumb thing to do :rolleyes:marc71178 said:Erm, C4?
Starved of coverage in the winter. That is why I said "so every Test and the CC games are all followed either on TV or by Teletext and the papers" which covers the fact that you can follow the Tests on TV or Teletext or the papers and the CC matches on Teletext or the papers...marc71178 said:You said "starved of cricket coverage" - C4 show 6 Tests plus a few one day games each summer, as well as highlights.
He is just trying to consolidate his position in the team so that he can put on more AA trademark performancesmarc71178 said:All hail AA!

The ball which AA bowled to Ashraful in India's second match against Bangladesh was great though. It surprised him with the pace and bowled him. The wicket broke into two pieces and one piece carried on and just stopped near the keeper and one piece remained intact on to the pitch. It was great to watch.
Yeah it travelled upto 2/3 of the way to the keeper. Only the top half travelled while the bottom half of the wicket didn't even fall.krkode said::wow:
That must've been awesome! I've never seen a wicket breaking before :wow:
I do remember when AA bowled Grant Flower...replays showed a little piece being chipped off the wickets...that was as big as it got for me
