A friend sent me this yesterday.. a reminder of how good TMS was. This clip was an iconic moment https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQBVN1uCPjJ/?igsh=MWVtY3M1YWlyODBpYQ==
England V New Zealand T20 7:30 tomorrow, missed the first 2 live, but will be watching this one (Its on TNT sports)
Cracking chase by India women. Brilliant knock from Wolvaart for SA. Should be a tasty final. If both play to their potential then I can see India winning it but would love to see the Proteas get the trophy.
But of a Dad's Army squad that is mind. Probably the oldest ever assembled. But players are better looked after now and know what it takes to keep going. England will start the first test with virtually no serious cricket in them for several months. A lot depends on a fully fit Ben, a massive amount. If he can bowl like he did in the summer, we can maybe win this series. But if he can't bowl it's a big ask. Even worse if he can't play, we have no chance IMO. They look like kids without their dad when he isn't playing sometimes. Few touring teams win these days, the odds are massively against them. But if England can get on top, it doesn't take much for the Aussie media to turn against their own team. Then ....
I can’t see us getting much from this series. Key bowlers coming back from injury who cannot in any way be considered to be match fit, more than one fragile batsman, a talismanic captain who’s a strain away from being unable to compete….. I’m expecting another drubbing.
Always have hope but it's usually dashed on the first morning. At least this time we have bowling strength in depth. Batting picks itself and will barely change.
