Playing cricket is ok if you're batting or bowling

I was in the school cricket team once, another school came to ours and we played them within our grounds, when I was batting the guy behind the stumps was sledging me, the third time he was sleding me as I was batting, I decided when the ball comes, to turn my body as if to hit the ball behind me to fool the fielders and get an easy 4 or 6, but really what I wanted to do was swing the bat semi circle so as to hit the sledger in his arm, I caught him on his head as I swung too wildly and all hell broke loose, some of the sledging I've heard that goes on at pro level would cause a riot if they were said outside that kind of professional setting, things said about their daughters/mum's etc.

Caramba goes to length for his Wettquotens. Even familiarising himself with cricket.


had a situation last night where a game went to super over (extra time). Did not know what the rules were for this, so had to do research on the format, the rules with the book and BF in the 10 mins, and also calculate the positions I was in based on all the bets I had place and then rebet one selection in the Super over market since Betfair voids all odds on match odds market in case of a tie. Was pretty stressful.

Betfair loves cricket though. €21M traded between cricket minnows Canada and USA.

Gracheva was ~1cm or a blind umpire (1st set point) or a friendlier net cord (2nd set point) away from winning the first set. Instead she is a set down now.

Two nights ago Djokovic complained about too much clay. Today he complains about too little clay that destroyed his knee.

He's a tough customer.

If Novak someone fluked his way to the final, I'd back Carlos to be winning in straight sets, when they last met here Alcatrash was more than holding his own but nerves got the better of him and cramped up

Novak surely wanted straight sets in this one, not an extra set or even more...possibly even losing this.
