You had Rob Key on a capybara, but I think a better photoshop would be Afridi eating a ball whilst dancing on a pitch.

And I believe “What is it like inside Shahid Afridi’s head?” is a foolish and dangerous question to ask, because the answer, apart from being unknowable, will also cause your head to collapse on itself.

A better question is “what’s the difference between “while” and “whilst” and when is a good time to use one of them?”. ?

Mad as a cut snake, is dear Afridi.

Mad as a cut snake in a salt mine…

When I first read that I thought “Well he’s brave”.

Then I worked it out.

An admirable effort. To sacrifice himself to the media in order to divert attention from the series whitewash and managerial incompetence..

Stuff McKay, that should have been the MOTM performance.

What a card.

I think the only way this could have gotten wierder was if the ball had got stuck, as I think it would do for many of us if we’d gotten it in that far. He would at some point have been asked by the umpire where the ball had gone. Unable to speak, he lifts his head which had been hung in shame, and looks at the umpire with sadness and confusion in his eyes, and a cricket ball in his mouth.
