Aussies have always hated broad. One of their rags refused to actually name him at one point and simply referred to him as 'the medium pace bowler'. Think it was down to him not walking....which ironically is a feature of Australian batting.

As much as I enjoy England being slapped around in Australia, that episode was pretty cringeworthy.

My favourite Broad moment however was Youvraj belting him over the ropes six times in an over a few years back.

Speaking of the Aussies, Pakistan in a very strong position in this morning's one-dayer. They've just lost their first wicket for 68 chasing Australia's hugely modest 220 all out.

Couple of bizarre incidents. Peter Nevill running face first into a flying cricket bat would be pretty hilarious were it not for the fact that he has a fractured jaw. And Bangladesh managed to hit 500 odd in the first innings and contrive, England style, to lose after having their keeper stretchered off after being hit on the head by a bouncer.

seen a vid of the Bangladesh player getting hit by the ball. He turns himself 90 degrees and then gets hit on the back of the head.

Scotland topped their group in the desert T20 thing then got predictably dicked by Ireland in the semis. Ireland vs Afghan in the final now.
Hales out the England tour with a broken hand.


Scotland: forever competing with the Netherlands to be not quite as good as Afghanistan.

England scored 321-8 in the third ODI. India currently 80-2 grin 16.2 in reply. Ball has not long dropped Kohli in the deep in what was a fairly straightforward chance.

Scotland lost by 7 wickets to Honk Kong in an ODI in Abu Dhabi. Scotland scored 205, HK got there with 5.4 overs to spare.
