Loots Bosman and Graeme Smith should play on ‘hard’ now

Loots Bosman plays his default shot

Loots Bosman and Graeme Smith today batted in international cricket as if they were playing an overfamiliar cricket computer game on easy setting. Simply aim at cow corner and press the six-hit button.

It was astonishingly clean hitting. Almost robotic. Alastair Cook erred hugely in not positioning a fielder on the grass banks on the other side of the rope.

    Ah, so they were playing on easy mode? I wondered why Saj was playing.

    Funny you should mention this – I was playing the truly abysmal ashes cricket on the wii today against England and scored 241 in 20 overs.

    I only lost 3 wickets though ;)

    Loots is a great first name for a cricket, don’t ya think?

    Especially for a batsman who steals run candies from bowling babies.

    Sajid is back with a bang. I think England missed a trick by putting him at number 11, though, after his exploits batting at 8 in Australia in 2006/07.
