Re: 2009 Season Targets: I'm gonna be yo-yoing between 1sts and 2nds this year for my club so setting season-long targets could be pretty difficult. Basically I want to get at least one score of 20+ for the seconds and at least one 5-fer and I want to do a job for the 1sts with the ball more...

Re: Resetting broken finger? Ok I will do, is there a type of tape that you'd recommend because the doctor said stuff he gave me wasn't ideal?? Thanks :) umm, I didn't notice if they were playing cricket but it was November sometime so I doubt it (unless that was sarcasm in which case its...

Re: Resetting broken finger? Hi again Liz, sorry for the delay but I've been really busy with A level modules and things. Basically the specialist guy said I'd been subluxating (or subluxing, not sure which) the joint rather than dislocating it. He gave me some tape and my coach is happy to...

Re: Resetting broken finger? I'm not too sure about the type of tape but it was fairly rigid I think. The index finger was pretty much the same as the thumb but it also got bent slightly backwards (at the joint that was dislocated earlier in the match) when someone rolled on it in a ruck. I...

Re: Resetting broken finger? The problem is that the thumb was already strapped when it was dislocated on Weds, which isn't a good sign. It was strapped by my mum who is an ex-GP so not kinda physio type expert but still you would expect it to be pretty darn good. I may have done something...

Re: Resetting broken finger? Hey, I've been unable to come online much at all recently due to work and stuff and it looks like it's going to be staying that way so I don't reckon there's much point in me being a mod any more (I know this is off topic but I figured I'd put it all in one...

Re: A Year of Scottish Cricket: T20 Champions, Season Round-up and Rugby!! Thanks, your season deffo trumps it though!!

Re: A Year of Scottish Cricket: Long time no update... Right, kinda long time since the last update and I'm a bit short on time but I'll summarise the end to my season: 2nd XI vs Motherwell 2nd XI - 50 over match We bowled first but they got 205-9 off their 50 overs. I bowled consistently...

Re: Will Kevin Pietersen be a success? Wales' biggest contribution to British cricket since Simon Jones got crocked in '05!!! :p Well played KP so far, but the India pitches could provide a very different challenge and somehow I think we'll need more spinners than Samit Patel.

Re: Best ODI side? Nice point about consistency. And yeah, I think England would give the Aussies a run for their money at the moment, the thing is England's form is probably the most fickle of any national sides, bar Pakistan.

Re: Post Pictures of your Kit! Nice bat, looks nice and hefty!!

Re: Best way to gaining weight I pretty much fit the bill here too - I put away a HUGE amount of food yet I staunchly refuse to gain weight!! I'm 17 and about 9 months, just under 6 foot and yet I weigh just under 10 and a half stone!! My shoulders are a fair bit wider than my waist so I...

Re: Will we ever Vaughan in an England shirt again? I think Shah deserves a run in the test team but we've got a (relative) wealth of middle order talent at the moment. Denly might be an option but we don't want to blood him too early and India isn't exactly a friendly place to make your debut...

Re: Match Fees - How much does it cost you to play? We didn't go through an agent and he was some kind of con-man who just got as much money as he could off a club before pissing them off and sueing them for damages after they kick him out. He'd done it loads in the past too when we rung up his...

Re: Field setting I would've thought just speaking to the more experienced captains and learning through experience would be the way to do it. I don't think it's the kind of thing you can learn with a textbook.
