Doesn't look like any of them turned up. You missed out Pollard, I'd rather watch him than a few of the players in your list

...Indeed.

 

[eddyfinn]

Full of over rated south African and Aussie players. Bar about 6 or 7 players it is basically shite and seems cliquey as fuck. Morgan didn't even get a game today despite being the 2nd best 20/20 batsmen in the world

 

[mikemanc]

Great gamed today, Rohit Sharma hit 73no off 50 balls including a last ball 6 to win it, Steyn took 3-12 from 4 and looked in seriously good nick, hell of a caught and bowled too.

Bit of controversy too, Sangakkara nicked onto off stump, ball hit the keepers pads then rebounded onto the stumps, umpires said not out (bails had come off), Harbajhan and Munaf Patel went mental and got the umpires to refer it after about 5 minutes (no drs). Eventually got the right decision in that he was out but a bit unsavoury at the same time.

 

[ProfessionalMackem]

[EightyFour]

[dangermows]

Never understood how cricket fans can enjoy watching rounders. Its very poor in terms of actually skill and talent.

Not strictly true considering most of the top players in the world are playing there is it?
