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. |

My BF position was -5k underdog, +42k the fave. All voided

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

market not a big fan of Novak here. 1.58
|
|
By:
Feel like last time I watched Dodig at RG he also lost as a big favourite.
|
|
By:
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.

You had an easy day.

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. |

Rune stands a great chance of beating Zverev today, wouldn't be a surpise

Novak beautiful tennis there
|

Mirra about to reach her first GS QF. And as always Sabalenka will be on the other side to crush her dreams.
|
|
By:
Sabalenka the Anti Christ of Tennis
|
|
By:
Mirra 8222 points from winning 25 Slams.
|
|
By:
a few thousands points short of Alcaraz's 30+ slams then
|
|
By:
although Varvara is not a French name, it sounds super french when the Frenchies say it.
|
|
By:
Novak into 1.2's again.
|
|
By:
set Fran the Man.
|
|
By:
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
|
|
By:
Novak surely wanted straight sets in this one, not an extra set or even more...possibly even losing this.
|
|
By:
easy for Mirra
|
|
By:
Novaxx in trouble
|
|
By:
you can't keep playing 4 and 5 sets at his age on the most physiclly demanding surface and expect to win this slam
|
|
By:
yep, when he was 33 might have got away with it, tougher at 37 years old...
|
|
By:
haha, hearing McEnroe naming 250 type players as he is looking at Fran's most recent records is a joy. Including Luciano Dardene!
|
|
By:
Novak's body language making me think his knee is genuinely causing him an issue
|
|
By:
Another RG final for Casper Ruud!
|
|
By:
Shot !!
|
|
By:
I wonder who's more famous in Norway, Casper Ruud, Solskjaer or Magnus Carlsen
|
|
By:
Novak 2.3x is having a lot of faith in Novak not exaggerating here
|
|
By:
Looks unable to push off and change direction properly. If that doesn't change he is cooked here
|
|
By:
Carlsen
|
|
By:
Carlson a chess god, the other two decent in their areas in comparison.
|
|
By:
Carlsen even
