Remember this post... Ollie Pope will be the best batsman in world cricket in 2 years time... There was a ball yesterday from Hendricks that I have no doubt, no other batsman in world cricket would have been able to play like Pope did. He watches the ball like no other... Mark my words.. Will be better than Smith, Kohli etc in the test version...

I hope the selectors havent forgotten about this post lol... fantasic performance against the Cobra's where the Dolphins were in a deep hole and on the verge of being buried.. Roelofsen played briliantly and put the Dolphins in a winning position...

This kid can play!!! watch this space... (imo, could be an even better 50 over player)...


He has done it again.....

I see that Hollywoodbets beat WSB in the cricket. They got their revenge for the other day.

Maharaj in top form with ball and bat. Also the captain.

This addition of the IPL is mental. Run chases which look impossible are easily achieved, but as the season goeson the wickets will become dry and the spinners will play a major part.

The balance between bat and ball in cricket has been lost many years now...the ball has remained unchanged, more bowling and fielding restrictions and bats that now have edges thicker than what sweet spots were on bats years ago and mediocre players look like superstars...

Lost any interest in watching especially 20/20 cricket...they might as well have a bowling machine giving batsmen 120 balls to try to mishit boundaries to feed their egos and unearned reputations...

Interesting take tnaicker, although in every single inning played so far batsman are dropped, sometimes 3 catches an inning add to that the odd mis stumping. I personally prefer to see all the big hits as opposed to batsman battling it out to score 30

Great TV yesterday in the two IPL matches first went to super over and the 2nd match had a double super over. How good is Chris Gayle still a world class player

Next years 20/20 world cup should just have 6 teams in it. England, India, NZ, Pakistan, WI , and Australia. SA should not even bother as they are a really poor side.
