Threw away a hundred by all accounts.
Not like he's not done that for us before!
Edit can't find a clip but the below image does the job. Tried to hit back to back sixes.

Put it on about half an hour ago. Will come back to it in a couple of days to see if there’s any life in the wicket.

Few English lads in his side as well. Crawley, Abell, Dawson & Gleeson all in the 11 with him today.
His side struggling yet he’s slid down to bat at 7. Waste.

Carded to come in at 7 in first two games and then bumped up to open. Moronic really.
I honestly can't be fucked with any T20 that isn't Durham or England in a tournament. Finals day I don't mind too.
I used to watch plenty of games as a neutral, but my care has gone down massively for the format.

I'm pretty much the same. No interest at all in the IPl.
Meh, shite IPL infested bollocks anyway.
39 off 20 today
Agree. It’s repetitive and boring.
Yep, the problem with it is that 99% of the games are instantly forgettable, who can truly remember more than a handful of T20 games?
Durham semi finals, the final, the QF against Glamorgan and England’s T20 win in the Caribbean. After that I can’t really recall too much more.
Test Cricket on the other hand - I can pretty much remember every single Test match England have played since about 1997. Whereby I can remember specific innings/spells of the game.
Similar for the entire First Class history of Durham from 1997.
I can even remember Tests involving other teams, where I’ve watched a lot of the game and it’s been a great fixture.
I know it makes me an absolute tragic, but there you go.
8 from 5 balls in yesterday's game

Following a crap team in the IPL can be fun. Used to enjoy watching Sunrisers Hyderabad stink the place out.

When was that. I'm sure under Warner captaincy they won it a couple of times.
Punjab or Dehli have been consistently the poorest sides off the top of my head. People joke about Bangalore and Kohli consistent failure with them too.

RCB spend a fortune on gun batsman and have garbage bowlers. Funny watching them smash 200 then seeing the opposition chase it down

Same. Definitely T20 fatigue for me. And do you know what makes it worse? This IPLifaction of all of cricket, everywhere. New leagues, new teams in different countries, doesn't matter. The IPL has its fingers in them all. Same teams, same owners. What's the point?
I'm just waiting for their takeover of the English County game. What's their end game? What happens when they buy all of cricket?
