Haven't been on this forum in a while but now that the new season has just started, thought I might get into posting here a bit more.
I'm in U15s now, which is good, because the good bowlers can get more overs (up to 8 in a 35 over game) compared to U13s which made everyone have a go, only 4...
Talk about cricket being a batsman's game now. I just played in a 10 over tournament with my cricket team. The game was designed for batsmen to slog freely. This is because wickets don't exist. Bowl a batsman out? doesn't matter, he can continue slogging you. It was utter bullshit. Are they...
When I talk about dragging it short and going down the leg-side, it usually looks like this:
Obviously minus the take from the keeper, considering the level I'm playing at. :rolleyes:
looking at this website from the point of view of a web developer, it's horrible. I mean, do they really need to use flash player for pretty much the whole site? Can't they just use a bit of basic HTML and CSS?! It doesn't even look good either. It might have some really good content but I can't...

Well, I was going to have a match today, but even though it was like 43C yesterday, it was raining this morning. It is raining again now and thundering as I am writing this. Make up your mind Adelaide weather!
