Deccan continue their slump

I’ve been really slack with posting and despite promises of “I’ll post something soon” I just have not had the time. That and my internet at home has been capped. This weekend was not a good weekend for Deccan Supporters. Losing to Rajasthan was cringe-worthy and the game against Mumbai on Sunday was no different. If RP Signh were my boyfriend I would cut off his balls. How can he be so CRAP this season [...]

We are talking about Kane Williamson, who has been selected to play for the [...]

Shahid Afridi is over the moon

This just in. Shahid Afridi has been named as the Captain of the Pakistan Cricket Team for their title defense of the Twenty20 World Championship to be held in the West Indies later next month.
