prime ministers XI v england sunday night

[stephen cartwright]

from around 1030pm

is this a 20/20 or 50/50 match?

 

[Mr Redknapp]

20-20 I think

allways said the ODI's are the starters and the tests are the main course. Its just because alot of casual marks go to one dayers are not too long for them :roll:

 

[Hetzkes Ballet Teacher]

But the PM is a woman - what kind of team can she possibly pick!??

(better than their selectors probably)

I know a bit about some of those new faces. Christian hits the ball absolutely miles and has been a revelation this year with his hitting. Copeland and Hazlewood are both quick bowlers, the latter really young - both played Sydney grade cricket with Stoneman in recent years. Copeland is a canny lower order hitter anarl.

 

[CollingwoodFTM]

Due to start at 2300. Australia win the toss and bat.

Colly England skipper.

Australian PM has terrible wardrobe malfunction.

 

[tynevalleyblackcat]

Its 50 overs by the way.

 

[CollingwoodFTM]

Might not be now, more rain.

"and that is classic Usman Kuaguia".....Jesus wept

 

[andy78]

What a catch by Colly!

 

[Big Bad Bri]

England win by 7 wickets under the Jack Duckworth method. Unbeaten century for Bell who opened the innings.

 

[Hetzkes Ballet Teacher]

Century and a quarter mate - scored half of the Aussies entire total.

Really looks in good nick.

And KP.

 

[godfrey]

What a catch by Colly!

Saw a few overs at lunch time including that catch...and took it in both hands when most would have struggled to get one hand to the ball!
