Bloody Hell

Totally gutted

Despite finishing 4th in the Leage Durham County Cricket Club relegated, start next season -48 points and banned from hosting Test Cricket

Talk about harsh !!!

From Cricinfo



Brutal Durham punishment reflects poorly on ECB



:sad:

Excellent article Baz

Thanks very much

There could well be a few: F.T.E.C.B. banners floating around the Riverside when the England v. West Indies T20 game is played next September.

Eligibility rules for the ICC to play cricket for a country

For blokes, it seems you have only to live in a country for just over 6 months in the preceding 4 years to be eligible. You don't have to be a citizen of that country.


Sourced from the ICC rules here



I have no idea why rule 3.3 is there. Surely 3.2 would apply??

:clueless:














No wonder so many South Africans go play in England. No racial preferences and an easy side to get into!!

Another few years and I can play for the Thailand OAP team!!


:grandpa:

Bloody hell!! Same same as the Aussie selectors.


This lot in the IPL keep Mitch Marsh but sack Pietersen, Baily and Handscomb










:clueless:

Injured Mitch Marsh in doubt for Ashes



What clown wrote this article?



He/she got this part right




But this?? A blaster??? FFS!!! :angry2:






Don't get me wrong. I want everyone that plays Test cricket for Australia to perform superbly including Mitch. Score 100 runs plus an innings, take 10 catches and take 10 wickets but sadly our man Mitch Marsh is clearly not up to the Test cricket standards required to play for Australia.



He can go make his fortune on the T20 circuit. Good luck to him.


But please, never again in the Australian Test cricket team.



:please:

He's got my vote for the ashes

Posting 450+ in the first innings and staring defeat in the face
