Now I have to wait till the Twenty20 match to get revenge on you buggers. And with the 4 batsman rule in that tourney, you know it'll be a hard one.

Because we have class? Need I bring up India's little rendezvous with Pakistan in the 2003 semi finals? Does the phrase "Seven wicks, no sticks" ring a bell?

Does the phrase "Seven wicks, no sticks" ring a bell? Child, please. The old Saudi teams of the mid-70s invented that saying. I love how the Indians coopted it at the ralph williker northern Ireland games of '89. Ironically, the Indians only played 6 wicks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was before the malloting rule though, so six wicks, although still quite rare, wasn't completely crazy. If memory serves, Shanarrah Kashanker dug two bowls in it.

BringBackFergy Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Does jiminy have this? Jimmy Griffith (TRBJ's favorite) has a small Daschund that he carries around before the match most days. It's really quite pathetic which lends itself well to their team nickname "The Kitten Corp". Pakistan, on the other hand, uses a pitchfork and laser beam to signify the harvesting of body parts when they win (all the time) and light of a new age in cricket. No women or materialistic symbols for the Pakistanis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griffith (my favorite) is just carrying on a New Zealand cricket tradition that's been going on since Bobby Susketh rescued that dog mid pitch back in 1956. We're purists here though. You Pakistanis with your lasers, and 13 Meter half lengths have no respect for what the game really is. Next thing you know, You're gonna have the wick up to 14cm high! 14 CM!!!!!

Next thing you know, You're gonna have the wick up to 14cm high! 14 CM!!!!!How can you challenge the wick height when your own team consistently sneaks olive oil into the opposing team's bench. Then, during the 14 half-quarter, you challenge the four shot on a bowled lanker, the official comes over and imposes a nine point duck-knocker. The New Zealand tricks are old...that's why the Pakis don't allow access anymore. Bunch of cheating blokes and cottagers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 We should get Promo to come to Dubai too. We can tailgate with some sharma kabob, fried shrimp heads, and Saudi cognac. Play a little "around the picket wicket" in the playard too. I love Middle Eastern food. But I thought alcohol was haram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the 12th semi-quarter, and it was only a seven point duck-knocker, and that's only because there were four pluckets! Harvey Champicks anyone?

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Well, as we all know, the IPL tournament started today, and what action we've seen already. Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders played to the final half wick yesterday. I can't wait for the Royal Challengers Banglore and Rajasthan Royals tonight. Fergy, who you got?
