Like Martyn got blamed for a loss against south Africa like 20 years ago and he was banished from international cricket for about ten years the same should happen to Maxwell.

Maxwell will be knighted instead and then Marcus North will be elevated to the captaincy when Clarke retires.

You take that back.

Edit: Funny story I heard the other day. My friend was telling me about his dad's best mate the other night. Apparently this bloke's son was best mates with Steve Smith as a young kid and he told his son that he was a bum that'd never amount to anything and forbade him to hang out with Smith anymore because he was a bad influence.

We can always trust South Africa to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat, only to slip and drop it right back in. If we had choked, we learned from the best!

I read it as the Dad told his son that he was the bum and preventing his lovely son from hanging out with him led to Smith's success.

It's been a while since we last had an article about India being an utterly retarded place.

Ten kids wearing Pakistan cricket shirts are to be charged with treason

quote:

"An FIR on charges of treason has been registered against 10 youths at Kubersthan police station for the Tuesday incident," superintendent of police (SP) Kushinagar Lalit Kumar Singh told TOI. "Investigations into the incident are underway and efforts are on to establish if there was any design behind the act. We will have to look into it thoroughly as the incident could have led to major law and order crisis," Lalit Kumar said. Additional SP Chandra Prakash Shukla, who is probing the incident, said investigators were trying to establish if it was by chance the youths decided to wear the T-shirts and track pants or the dresses were provided to them by someone else.

As ever, the comments are the best.

I like that it took until there was 3 balls left in the innings until he pitched one on the stumps, is he honestly worried about being hit down the leg side when the guys are standing a foot outside off stump?

At one side we talk about the brotherhood and peace on the other side we are not stopping these miscreants. They are the enemies within the country and we should treat them same as we treat the enemies on the border. They are more dangerous than the enemy on border.

Some of the shittest looking cricket I've seen in years, if he's facing up a foot outside off-stump just bowl at the base of leg or even middle and leg. The first 4:30min of that video makes no sense.
