Church and Hand were givens my dear old thing.

I thought maybe they were a-feudin' and refused to be together in the same booth.  Maybe the Hands and the Churches are the version of the Hatfields & the McCoys, or the Campbells & the MacDonalds

FedEx driver goes with the "truck broke down" excuse. Riiiight.
Did they blame Murali for their suspect delivery scheduling?

Those listening heard how close I was to becoming the talking point during the interval of a nationally broadcasted match. Stoopid rain delay!

The email I sent:

Gents,

Way too much Twenty20 this season and the scheduling has all but ruined the County Championship.  The Twenty20 tourney needs to be condensed into one period to start the season and not jammed into the middle of the proper cricket.

Too bad that's only on paper.

As a man of 70 years old... his voice is bound to give up on him soon...

I remember when Kamran Akmal was being discussed as one of the most promising young keepers in international cricket.  He has to be the worst keeper in a national side...I'm not sure what has happened, but he is just terrible, and his batting has really not improved much either.

Morgan and Collingwood have made their bowling look quite average.

A nice jab at KP from the BBC online summarizer:

 A shot of Pietersen up on the balcony as players takes drinks, playing with his ear and pouting contemplatively. He doesn't look in a great frame of mind at the moment - if he walked into a room full of flowers, he'd start looking for the coffin.

Morgan smashes a 6 to reach his maiden Test century.

Bell and KP are now on notice.

Fatigue has played no small role in this average bowling...that, and some dreadful keeping by Akmal.  No reason that Collingwood should still be out there batting...
