It's too quiet, sir. I don't like it.

Actually, it's because everyone's busily watching the RSA v England
game. At least, I suppose it is, because I'm not watching it, nor do I
intend to. The score will no doubt be in the paper tomorrow.

Apart from the England/RSA game, nothing else is happening in the
world of cricket. At least, India haven't played an ODI for a
fortnight or more, and they aren't due to play another for at least
three weeks, so there's nothing important for anybody to talk about.

Courtney Walsh has checked into hospital and will be out for the rest
of the century. Sachin Tendulkar has changed his name to van der Merwe
and has been put on standby in case one of the RSA batsmen mugs a
nightclub bouncer.

Fred Trueman, Geoffrey Boycott, and Ray Illingworth have held a press
conference. They've apologised. Whatever it was, they've apologised
for it. They're very sorry indeed, and they won't do it again.

Cheers,

Mike

You old curmudgeon. It's not a hanging offence, watching silly
cricket. It's just not proper cricket.

India narrowly beat Kenya last night in an ODI tournament, nobody's

Maybe, but I've got something better to do this evening, and I've been
at work all day.

Blimey. So they did. Perhaps someone's newgrouped india.sport.cricket
and they've all gone over there to moan about Azhar.

That's the trouble with young people today. No imagination. Now, in my
day, we used to picture things out in the middle. We didn't do any of
this new-fangled nonsense, we just went out there and did it. We
didn't just do it in the nets, you know. And we never got injured
doing it. I mean, Brian Statham, he could picture an entire season of
rep at the Free Trade Hall at one end, while I just thought about
Leeds City Varieties, where they had The Good Old Days. Of course, you
wouldn't remember The Good Old Days. One of my best inventions, them.
But people today, I just don't know, they don't appreciate the Good
Old Days: nowadays they all seem to want Mick Reeves (is that his
name, oh something like that any road). Some of them don't even know
they were born. You don't want all this quick-fire rubbish - you want
lines at length, lines at length, lines at length, that's what gets
them out of the theatres. I just don't know what's going off out there
any more.

Cheers,

Fred

Watching it?? You mean, sort of visually? I can't be the only one who still
has to stare fixatedly at Ceefax with TMS wheezing at me from the only
radio I've got with LW - the one with the stub of wire for an aerial which
the cats chewed off ages ago. Don't tell me the whole world's got Sky apart
from me. Surely this little routine is part of a cricketing tradition???

It was quite fun when Croft was on a hat-trick, though. Henry Blofeld
nearly choked on his currants. It was more fun than it probably should have
been. Now I'm off to watch the highlights to see how appalling Nass's run
out of Knight was, and to see for myself the catch that was supposed to be
so brilliant.

You're not. I know it's really summer when I have to go looking for my
barely functioning fifteen year old radio - the one with "LW, MW & VHF".
It makes me feel quite young again.

Don't have Sky, don't have football. Can't not have football. World
ends.

The catch watch pretty good, but the runout was awful. Knight was
backing up a long way in the one-day tradition, Hussain was daft.
So, that's one ODI and one test he's lost us with runouts in the past
few weeks. Git.

Ealham was run out, Willis said "it looks like Ealham is short".
He missed out the "a" and "arse" in that sentence.

Can't agree there. Tennis, rugby and (don't snort) ice skating, yes. Mind
you, football World Cup might be fun. I did watch England trounce Holland
in Euro 96, and had a surprisingly good time in the process.

The catch was amazing, the runout was embarrassing. Thorpe lost us the test
in WI, just as his dropped catch off Matthew Elliot lost us the Headingley
Test during the Ashes. If Nass is a git, Thorpe is a big fat git. (You want
polemic? I can do polemic..)

Oh ho ho. Arf arf. (Clutches at aching ribs). You must have missed the
great debate on TMS about how short Markie really is. His details said 5'
9'', so Aggers concluded he must be 5' 8'' seeing as all men add an inch or
two on to their height just to impress. Seeing as I'm 5' 11'' anyway, an
inch or two here and there makes no big difference. Well, what I mean is...

How much more short could you get? None more short.

I am guilty of laziness. Although all Essex players are Gits, not all
Gits are Essex players. Essex players are a subset of Gits. Essex Git
is a tautology. You are correct.

I apply my earlier statement to myself now. My advise to Mike Gooding
was that he should watch out, as he has started to agree with me more
than is healthy. I am now starting to agree with Mr. Holmans. Normal
service will be resumed shortly.

He still can't bowl consistently, no one can who during delivery acts as though
the captain has asked him to do the fielding at cover as well as bowl. The poor
bloke doesn't know where his arm is and 5 per over average in tests aint good
enough.
Look at most of his performances against Australia last year, one short, one
down leg, one short and wide etc. etc.
The last time I saw a great spell of fast bowling from him was against the West
Indies here 2 tours ago, really accurate pace and too hot for even Hick at slip,
then he head was pointing down the wicket, but that doesn't happen now.
Ray Illingworth was trying to tell him that in SA and he took umbrage. What he
needs is a good coach, bells would be ringing in my ears if I were going for
that many per over.
