    Haha, what I'm referring to is a bourbon and cola RTD.

    First time I drunk properly (vommed on three 2.2 Woodies) I was 18 and that was pretty late compared to most people. Had beers before then but never enough to feel anything, at most 2 or 3. Like thedon says there are a lot of people drinking most weekends at 15/16. ---------- First thing that...

    I think it's a very rare case for someone that young to be exposed to it, but there is a reasonably strong drinking culture at high school because it's the "cool" thing to do, at a guess I'd say that maybe half of people have started by 16 (maybe 17). I'm not sure what it's like elsewhere, but...

    From what I understand he's pretty much been told to go out there and take wickets, so days like that are going to happen to him every now and then, the more concerning thing imo is that everyone else went for over six an over as well. I'd prefer Boult over Milne because I think Milne is just...

    Yeah, even second will be quite an achievement though considering his wickets have been against a much higher standard of opposition than Mendis' were, who took almost half of his wickets against Zimbabwe and the UAE.

    How does the rain work, are you deciding before you sim a game if it's going to be rained off at a certain point etc?

    General Cricket Discussion

    Does anyone have/no where to find any ODI stats in terms of things like the average score by a team batting first, % of wins batting first/chasing, average wickets lost etc? I've done generic Google searches and haven't found much, so any help would be appreciated. Just FTR I've found ground...

    Solid 98 run opening partnership with Yash on debut. Lol at India and England.

    Yeah, in SL we were playing like 8/9 all-rounders/bowlers. And back when McCullum came on the scene (early 2000s) he batted at like 10. This team here had all-rounders batting down to 11.

    The "plan" is not to get them in earlier, they should only be coming in for the last 15 or so overs. If they come in at 150 yes we could get over 300, but we could also get under 250 if we end up 200 for 6 with both of them gone cheaply. I get your point and I agree that he should've batted a...

    Definitely not the West Indies, their team in real life atm has 7ish players who can't bat or bowl.

    I disagree. From someone who bats like that (slow), for me it's about the partnership. A few months ago my team made over 300 in 40 overs (and rolled the other team for 100). I opened the batting and we put on like 70/80 in the first 10 overs, I made like 10 of them. Obviously a completely...

    What is an all-rounder?

    Vettori's an interesting one. Since 2003 (the last 10 years of his Test career) he has our 7th highest batting average, 3rd most runs and hundreds, and 4th highest strike rate (2nd highest excluding Southee and Sodhi, and his high strike rite shows that he doesn't play for his average when...

    Love the look of our team for this match. It's a bit sad how I think we're at absolute full strength while the West Indies are missing over half of their first team.

    Wow, just wow, that was some pretty ridiculous batting, some of their shots were outrageous.
