also, i am such a juvenile

In the news feed on the side of the cricinfo page, there is an article with the title

"Wagner pounds his beat to good effect"

and i chortle every time i misread it.

@mariner4life They've spelt meat wrong?

[Crucial]

7k runs for Rosco!

Well done

[Crucial]

So effectively 110/2 at lunch.

62 overs available (rain permitting)

Another 100 runs in 30 odd overs sees it well safe

[Hooroo]

I don't know what is funnier, the original line or you pointing out the bleeding obvious.

@Cyclops pffft hahaha oh god that's just so bad. look a the averages in the top 6

29
27
26
46
25
11

sing with me now "one of those things is not like the others, one of those things is not the same..."

we, as supporters, really did earn this little purple patch.

Only Rossco (for himself) and Danny V. would make our current team from that 11.

Despite that all of Guppy, The Tosh, Fulton and Flynn opened in tests - I think Jeet would still fend them off!

Edit - BMac opened as well, of course and Jeet wouldn't fend the later BMac off.

fucking love you Kane

[Bovidae]

Kane nearly ran himself out and couldn't have blamed Taylor for that.

Fucking timely little return to form before we head across the ditch for the GOAT.

[Gunner]

Sounds like that rain isn't too far away, better put the hammer down Rossco.

That was suicide. Shame the english didn't display that sort of form when Guppie ran his suicide run at Lord's 😤

[mariner4life]

Richie!!

Oh, wait, it's already gone

It started pouring here in central Auckland about 30 minutes ago. Shouldn't be far away

[Donsteppa]

222/2. Marvellous.

[Bovidae]

I'd say there is time for Ross to get his ton. It's not raining yet.

[canefan]

Just saw an add on sky for screening of the 85 Australia series. Getting everyone excited

[canefan]

Rosco putting the hammer down
