I played yesterday. third over, the skip moved me to midwicket and three balls later the batsman smacked one straight at me, which i shelled. balls. i was first change at the other end. second ball i bowled was slapped straight down my throat at speed, which i also shelled, and in process went over on my ankle. fuck right off. i have two dropped catched in about four balls and a massive blue cankle for my troubles.
cricket is shit.

in ss jumbo news, i gave it a sand and oil, then knocked it in for a bit and it came out lovely. still heavy as a mf, but looks good.
i went out to bat with us needing about 10 an over yesterday and the first hit was down near the bottom of the batt (off centre) it sounded like a broom handle and left a massive ding from the seam. more knocking in required. i did middle the next one and hit it about three hundred rows back! amazing! a proper tonk.
then i nicked one behind...

Caveat on the last point, I get that it's the job of the media to push these things to get people's eyes on the sport and keep the money rolling in, but the constant pushing personal rivalries thing gets pretty tedious. Combined with Netflix fabricating narratives to draw people in, and it feels like it's slipping more and more towards Eastenders at 200mph.
agreed - you could almost hear the boners in the press boxes when the crash happened.

i am normally pretty cool with bowling shit or batting like a fanny, but dropping catches really pisses me off. i was celebrating the first one before it even hit my hands. the second one was unlucky.
