Yes. Sounds like a real pickle, would explain a lot.

Although I heard another rumour that the cuckolder is ALSO a recently-retired England cricketer, albeit one still involved with the set-up.

Harmison back for the Oval match, with Bell at 3.

Glad that KP has been made captain, English cricket needs a kick up the jacksey

He's already talking a good game, or mouthing off a great deal, depending on your viewpoint. I'm still wavering between the two.
― Neil S, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 11:56 (fifteen years ago) link
Massive Twenty20 match for me tonight. Physics vs. Humanities. If we win we're into the end of season play-off, if we lose is the end of our season. I will doubtless be bowling my woeful medium pace and scoring 7 before holing out at long on.
― caek, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 12:16 (fifteen years ago) link
I thought you bowled chinamen?
I've gotta miss Charlton's first game of the season thanks to a match. Not that I'm complaining. Last week I went to Greenwich Park and ended up playing for a team of strangers (on a proper pitch), taking two wickets and a catch as we won a 2020 game by about 30 runs. :D
Oh, and Harmison deserves his recall significantly less than Kabir Ali does, but what can you do when someone plays for a trendy county? :P
― Just got offed, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 12:23 (fifteen years ago) link
Well remembered! Changed to medium pace this year as they've laid an artificial pitch which doesn't take turn. Turns out I'm actually OK at medium. I even got some orthodox inswing a couple of weeks ago when it was really humid.
― caek, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 12:33 (fifteen years ago) link
x-post Yes, Durham, that's a trendy county all right!
― Neil S, Wednesday, 6 August 2008 12:34 (fifteen years ago) link
Has anyone told them up there yet?

It is nice

Who would've thought Harmison would trigger a collapse like that!

Not Louis, that's for sure
― Tom D., Thursday, 7 August 2008 14:10 (fifteen years ago) link
lol hi
maybe he has been bowling like this all season. let's see him keep it up. overseas.
― Just got offed, Thursday, 7 August 2008 14:13 (fifteen years ago) link
He's bowling a helluva lot better than Broad anyway.
― Herman G. Neuname, Thursday, 7 August 2008 14:17 (fifteen years ago) link

194 all out
― Herman G. Neuname, Thursday, 7 August 2008 16:07 (fifteen years ago) link
Good times.
[Won last night so we're through to the semi-finals of the play-offs. Two juicy cover drives for four resulted in my top score for the season of 8. Out bowled having completely lost track of where the ball was. Bowled one and dropped a catch off my own bowling. Conceded rather a lot of extras. Good times.]

LOL

Haha, Channel 5 had the gall to reunite Harmison and Boycott, once so animated in another's offence! The kiss and make up ceremony as conducted by Sparky Nicholas. Dear me!
