Cricket Banter

4th ODI - Trent Bridge

Pakistan: 340/7 (50 overs)
England: 341/7 (49.3 overs)

England won by 3 wickets and lead series 3-0 with one match remaining.

It's the first time that I've seen someone out 'hit wicket' when the Pakistan batter square cut his own wicket.

First two teams into the T20 blast semi finals are Essex who beat Lancashire and Nottinghamshire who overcame Middlesex.

The remaining two spots to be filled over the course of tomorrow and Saturday.

Geoffery Boycott must have been forgiven he's finally been given a knighthood.

And Andrew Strauss has also been honoured.

^Mind you, certain sections of Yorkshire CCC have been calling him "Sir Geoffrey" for years, lol, but congrsts to both Geoffrey nd Andrewa

When Geoffrey was playing for England, my cousin and I went to Ashes match at Lord's in 1981 on the Saturday think we paid £10 on the gate to get in (can't remember) and we sat on the boundary and Geoffrey fielded near us Every time he fielded we were singing "There's only one Geoffrey Boycott" then someon sang "There's only one dirty great Yorkshireman" lol and we kept chucking him opal fruits!! lol
