this isn't about 'casino royale' at all, it's about stick ball - something called the arses

'Vaas to Cumming, moves forward to a fuller delivery and pushes to cover'

I find the cricinfo commentary somewhat disconcerting at the moment.

What about the guy who put $50K on a draw (odds $2... something I believe).

12 wickets on the first day........he's not looking good.

Imagine he's praying Bond breaks down and it rains. Actually, come to think of it....not a bad bet!

Isn't there something about a bowler with a short and long leg who bowled a maiden over. Then there's the sticky wicket, handled ball, ball tampering and chucking.

Tis a strange and wondrous game.
