Oh I say
That one started on middle and leg but straightened to take the top of off. Unplayable, Athers.

I do rather love your cricket praises

I was explaining late swing to minibadger on friday afternoon
she stared at the screen a bit and then was sick when Jimmy started his run-up. High praise indeed.

Badger!
Been meaning to ask you since Sunday. Did you see any of the highlights? Who the fuck was that tall chap bowling on Sunday morning? Looked like Stuart Broad but was very obviously Malcolm Marshall at his most terrifyingly unplayable. Not an easy pair of chaps to get confused, you'd have thought.

Broad's always been able to do that
If the silly prick remembers to pitch it up.

As it goes, I think Jimmy was bowling better than him on Sunday. I just think Jimmy's bowling was so unplayable that the NZ batsmen subconsciously relaxed against Broad. And paid the price.

Jimmy Anderson is a fucking swing genius
If the two of them manage two sessions like that per match against the Aussies, with their current top order, we're looking at five innings victories. Minus however many matches are rained off. And at least one for a comedic batting collapse.

I was particularly fond of his execution of the perfect two-card trick
The first one jagged viciously back and damn near took the end of the NZ boy's cock off as it cut him in two. Second one followed exactly the same path but straightened away to take the edge to slip.

I was almost sporting a semi.

High-end cricket chat.

Aye, was a fucking masterclass
Unplayable to all but the most experienced of batsmen. So if something unpleasant happens to Michael Clarke we could skittle them for single figures.

*calls in favour*

At our winter indoor cricket nets a couple of months back
a curmudgeonly old bastard went into the nets. He really is a foul-mouthed, torn-faced old twat. Anyway, he takes guard, 1st bowler comes in nice and quick and catches him right in the spuds with a slightly short one. Old bastard goes down like a sack of spuds, gets helped out of the nets. Innings over. LOL.
