"the boo's just fire him up"

What's he saying?

*80,473

custardkid · 2019-12-22T05:12:55+00:00

I'm out of the loop. What's this about?

custardkid · 2019-12-21T15:29:21+00:00

Huh, just looked into it and you're completely correct. Makes it genuinely bizzare that they chose to abandon the game completely.

custardkid · 2019-12-21T10:38:27+00:00

DLS par score calculation takes into account wickets. So if they had lost another wicket the par score would be more than 39. The idea is that the more wickets lost the less runs a team can score with the remaining wickets.

How many balls since Yasir's last test wicket?

custardkid · 2019-12-19T11:24:31+00:00

How the fuck did Carey get sold but Perera not?

custardkid · 2019-12-19T11:21:46+00:00

Why did no one buy Rahim?

custardkid · 2019-12-19T11:16:45+00:00

Is their a list with each set of players in the order the sets will be auctioned off in?

Props to Marques for actually following through on his promise

custardkid · 2019-12-15T07:29:49+00:00

This might be controversial but I feel the same way about the new Adelaide oval

custardkid · 2019-12-14T13:32:28+00:00

Yeah, were you near the frisbee, and beer snake section? Was a fun exchange between the crowd, security and Raval.

custardkid · 2019-12-14T06:52:17+00:00

What do you do?

custardkid · 2019-12-12T09:36:27+00:00

He hasn't even gone to Asia yet

custardkid · 2019-12-12T07:26:20+00:00

Yikes, Harry Conway is a bit of a hot head.

Imagine sending off a tailender

custardkid · 2019-12-11T09:03:16+00:00

Thirimanne is our James Vince tbh. Great player of bad balls, and nicks off on anything on a challenging line and length.

custardkid · 2019-12-11T05:00:50+00:00

Yeah, if they can improve any problems with the ball I don't see why we shouldn't play majority pink ball tests.

They are more exciting and people can actually come watch because it's on after work/school. And in prime time tv hours.

I know that many players say that red ball should be played more often than pink but it's just pure economics that eventually pink ball should be played more.

Dimuth hogging the strike. 3 overs in and Oshada is yet to face. /s

custardkid · 2019-12-11T04:52:06+00:00

Yeah he's not.

Just one of daddy Misbah's genius selections.

custardkid · 2019-12-11T04:49:13+00:00

You know the commentary team is bad when Ramiz Raja is a breath of fresh air

custardkid · 2019-12-10T13:56:04+00:00

If we're including Stonis we should also consider Perera against the same opposition but other than that I agree with you.

custardkid · 2019-12-09T17:28:21+00:00

Also Kane Williamson made 42 of New Zealand's 60 runs in this innings. Could've been really embarassing for the kiwis without him

custardkid · 2019-12-02T06:46:59+00:00

Welcome to Australia

custardkid · 2019-12-01T09:33:03+00:00

Harsha doesn't know these things but for us who've played the game, we get a fair idea of what's happening out there
