Not enough Blu-Tack in cricket
You know it and we know it too.
Thankfully, there’s a little bit of Blu-Tack on the Wisden Cricketer blog at the moment.
The bit where some of the Blu-Tack looks sad is a high point.
1 AppealStraight Outta Surrey – cricket, Received Pronunciation and hip hop, together at last
Have you ever thought to yourself how hip hop music could be improved if the artists used Received Pronunciation and made tracks about cricket?
Thought so.
Thanks to Vil for pointing us towards this and apologies to those of you who knew about Mr B the Gentleman Rhymer already and are absolutely staggered that we’re so slow with these things.
Actually, no, not sorry. Sod you. We pride ourself on not knowing what’s going on in the world. We will not apologise for that.
14 AppealsEoin Morgan does something mental with his cricket bat
We saw this plastered across Jrod’s Balls yesterday. It’s Eoin Morgan doing something quite ridiculous in the name of batting.
It’s pretty impressive, but is he really that good?
He can play that shot well enough in those circumstances, but how well would he bat with his upper arms tied to his chest with electrical wire so he could only move from the elbow down, kind of like a tyrannosaurus rex?
How well would he bat then, eh?
