    Australia tour of West Indies March-April 2011/12

    4th ODI: And they all fell down Article by baggy_blogger - I am someone who avoids criticism of my team and the game of cricket. However, I use the words, “and they all fell down”, carefully as that was how it felt for me watching Australia’s batsmen crumble against the Windies. It seemed to...

    If It Ain't Broken, Don't Fix It

    A very good article mate. Nice to back here again. I wrote an article on this issue on my site a while ago, glad to see someone also sees the fixtures as a direct killer regarding cricket's interest levels, especially with ODI cricket. If better, more structed fixtures are put in place with...

    Mickey Arthur Resigns

    Except Peter De Villiers is a natural comedian by just being his idiotic self. Now that is a political placement, good for a laugh though when he does post match interviews. Kirsten won't move from India, I'm almost certain. The coaches that are settled will be looking to work with their...

    Mickey Arthur Resigns

    I am not surprised at all how this is turning out. This is what happens when Sport and Politics are mixed. It is not natural and disaster is inevitable within the context of stability. Underlying politics in South Africa run from Business to Sport and is, in my opinion, unethical and not a...

    Mickey Arthur Resigns

    Most classic news I've heard this week. I'm really not that surprised. I think Arthur is arrogant & I have never liked his body language or the pissy fits he has when things don't go his teams way. Smith is unbelievably dull and I fail to see in his personality trait what is so inspiring about...

    Ponting - ODI Retirement?

    Nah mate! Don't start talking about retirement with Punter. He's already gotten out of T20 cricket to further his focus and chances of longevity. He just hasn't gotten off yet this series. The media gave him a crap time and he gave them two middle fingers in response when he set off in Hobart...

    Crowd threw coins and a baseball at us - Victorian Bushrangers

    This stuff happens. It is upsetting, but it's usually just a few muppets who have a few too many beers. The players react to it and then they will cop it a bit. Unfortunate and I'm sure SACA will make sure there are no further issues. But it's happened many times in other countries in other...

    Big Bash League

    Yeah good win for the Vics. I am gutted for the Redbacks!! Really thought they'd get a Trophy in the cabinet..been a long time coming. Awesome catch from David Hussey, that turned the game around really quickly, although the 2 wickets up front was a sign. Aiden Blizzard was awesome, must...

    I must admit I don't think Ellie Goulding is all that bad. Her first single was really catchy and a nice electronic pop song. Listening to the Manic Street Preachers...notably 'Motorcycle Emptiness'. Vintage!

    Sheep Gives Birth to Lamb With Human Head (pics)

    LOL, I would say Derek Crookes, that old timer South African spinner. He takes the cake over Sids, Matt Prior, Graeme Swann, Scott Styris..... Wierd article mate but never convined by these things.

    Hints and tips for guitar beginner

    Jamming with guys who are a bit better than you is a great way to learn. With the internet now there are so many sources you can go watch videos, download tutorials. It's insane. When I started guitar internet was only beginning to pick up (in terms of speed too) so I would download tabs...

    What are you listening to now?

    Third Eye Blind - Blinded. Yeah! Great tune, good band. Believe they have a new cd. I'm trying to get ahold of the new Stereophonics album, no success as of yet.

    Dizzee Rascal haha, I think the way this bloke sounds, particularly on his one song 'Fix Up', is hilarious. Took a while to understand him although in the UK he's massive and he lays down 'a phat beat, ya know wot I'm sayin'! The Prodigy are insane. Their stuff since Fat Of The Land hasn't...
