but still just sloggy sloggy - unless he uses this as his George Bailey route into the test side!

Looks a proper pie, beer and fag batsman, just like how a cricketer should be.
Great story and this is what 20/20 is all about.

quite - its supposed to be entertainment and all that

It's slap and tickle cricket. Sloggy sloggy is good, cracking for the bloke though, good on him.

what were the stickers on his bat i didnt recognise them, and couldnt get a close enough look

exactly.

He's a decent enough cricketer, couldnt cut it in Sheffield Shield, that doesnt make you a bad person.  He's 31 now so probably has a 'proper job' like the rest of us, maybe a young family........

He's from a pretty ordinary area in terms of socio-economic demographics (out of interest about 70% poms down there) so wouldnt it be an awsome cinderella story if he scored an IPL gig.........would be life changing for a bloke like that.

only the mean spirited wouldnt wish him well.

PS - Bat stickers say 'Kingsport' never heard of it/them..... maybe a local Perth brand....I'll look into it

[awp]

the kingsport bat/brand seems to be the house brand of Kingsgrove Sports in NSW

Has he nominated himself for the IPL auction?

[Cedrictoad]

The big chief has just snapped again... scored another quick ton

[Jenko]

They were bagging him bigtime early on!!! Good knock this. Awesome hitting

[Cedrictoad]

He doesn't even look like he is trying to hit it hard... that fielding was funny

[smilley792]

I'm gutted. Sky plused every big bash game. But not this one. As had a tesco delivery so would be up,

Tesco knock, I hit Pause.

45mins later. Sit down press play and sky box says "error" not recorded. Press sky, and he's walking off run out for 112!

Dam you sky, dam you and your crap cheaply made boxes! Grrr.



Surely he's gonna be In The ipl? Aus bb bowlers are better than India's ipl ones, and the tracks are better to bat on!

2tons in aus, is surely worth a decent deal in the ipl.

[csnew]

Probably get bought for 1m+ and won't get a game. Only chance he'll have of playing is if he goes to the lesser franchises

[Cedrictoad]

We hits it a long way... with the smaller Indian grounds the crowd better turn up with helmets.

Can he still nominate himself for the auction?  Only a week to go, should be very interesting to see who goes where and who doesn't go anywhere.

Find the missing footage on Youtube, always works for me.  It is definitely worth the effort!

Can't believe its raining in Sydney.

[smilley792]

Rain is poor,


His name isn't on the ipl long list. Which should be a short lost by now, but can't find that.
