The Cricket Thread

Nice win to start off with and the big hitters didn't get going really, bodes well.

Hopefully Gayle gets into demolition mode tomorrow.
 
Clarke out of tomorrow's game against England with this back injury

Quite a few of my Aussie mates aren't too upset by this. Clarke isnb't the most popular member of the team, and there is a school of thought that says without him in the side some of the younger Aussie players will step up. Still think we'll do them tomorrow and in both of the Ashes' series.

Have you guys heard about this Pakistani spinner (aged about 30) who had his citizenship fast tracked so he could make it over to England for the Ashes?

Doesn't surprise me. And I bet if he does well the same people who are currently bleating on over here about too many immigrants and 'let the boat people drown' will be singing his praises.
 
Warner in trouble now apparently. Drinking too much on a night out and rumours he took a swing at an England player (rumours at the moment...)
 
Warner's been stood down from the squad to play NZ. What a numpty. Back to playing NSW grade cricket for him like he was only a few years ago.
 
This really is gonads... they should know all about how we get reverse swing to work... they now have the same coach (Troy Cooley sp??) that we used to have for four or five years. I smell some running scared Aussies... no history, no culture, no class! \o/
