oi!!!!!! this is a motorbike forum please throws this thread in pointless drivel:nya:

[GR81]

Rant or Rave
Talk about any non-motorbike stuff here.
:nya: hehe

fuckin oath, what a legend. how about franklin too. must have been a long long day in the field, no wickets for what must have been about 80 overs. iirc he's the first nzer to make 3 double hundreds. wonder if we've batted too long to get a result. will have to wait and see. is franklin going to have to take one for the team and leave his highest score out there at 93*

Yeah, good stuff, sat up and watched it to about 2am last night, shame Fleming got out last ball. Hope Franklin can get a ton, be good to see the boys score 600!!

[GR81]

i would imagine they will let Franklin get his maiden test century then declare.
newlands is always a batting wicket (even tho smith elected to bowl) so a result was never really on the cards from the beginning.

[metric]

well done Fleming... first NZ batsman to score three double centuries

[Big Dave]

Good knock - I turned it off 2 minutes before he got out.
The Pink Flowers couldn't catch a cold.

I reckon Australia would declare. Be interesting to see if they let franklin get it - if he gets it.

[oldrider]

Good knock - . I reckon Australia would declare. Be interesting to see if they let franklin get it - if he gets it.
A big improvement but it's never over till it's over and they are there to get a "result". IE: WIN.
Australia would have gone for the result first, because they are "professionals" where as our players are just "highly paid players" .
Big difference! All will be revealed in the end.:zzzz:

Women's beach volleyball is the only Olympic sport where dribbling is allowed...

SNOOKER,BOWLS AND POOL

[Hitcher]

SNOOKER,BOWLS AND POOL
Snooker is a 23-ball game
Bowls requires four per player
Pool is a 16-ball game

I'm still waiting for examples of a two-ball and three-ball game...

[Patrick]

Most bedroom games would be a two ball game... :innocent:

Three ball has me stumped too...unless pawnbrokers are sports? I doubt it...

Billiards is three.

Skydiving requires two balls.
Extreme skiing perhaps?
Maybe... motorcycling?

[Hitcher]

Anyway, back to the Cape Town test. A draw. Pah!

I know it's not "cricket", but I'd like to see a test -- say Australia v Bangaldesh -- where Australia wins the toss and bats for five days. Score something like 1,745 for 8. For a draw.

still 1 day to go... anything could happen... NOT!

What do you know-----"A DRAW"!!!! Bunch of overpaid show ponies!! They went there to "WIN" Shall we do a haka now?:sick: John.

[Colapop]

This "test" is another reason why cricket should be a full contact sport. I mean the batsmen wear pads already so why not add a coupls of blockers halfway down the pitch?

maybe even a couple of running backs and tightends?

[Colapop]

And special teams and 30 coaches and cheerleaders... Nah it'd never catch on.

[Hitcher]

Dig a moat through the pitch at the halfway point. And an oak tree at cover. And half a dozen fox terriers loose.

[Colapop]

So you've played cricket for Lancashire? Now that's cricket! None o' tha' sissy girly whaat paants roun' 'ere lad.
