the ashes

November 25, 2010

It is here, it is now. The battle for the urn starts in less than an hour of this post going live. Are we ready? Are you ready? Here is the backdrop: paddle is supporting the poms while mspr1nt is with the aussies. Believe me when I say that it is going to get bloody [...]

Watch out, the Ashes are here

November 22, 2010

If you have read our bio, you would know that I am an England supporter when India are not playing. Hence, I get very excited when the ashes are around, cos it gives me a great chance to bag the aussies. Somehow, I do not like them at all. It could be because they were [...]

Old wine in new bottle

May 16, 2010

This is not the best day for clichés, but I couldn’t resist this one. Australia take on England in the final of the World T20 today and everyone is hyping the much-hyped Ashes rivalry. Cricket’s oldest rivals are taking each other on in the newest format. The men who played in suits are locking horns [...]

Crimes in Broad Daylight

March 18, 2010

Don’t we all love them briats. Most of them being an offspring of someone rich, or belonging to an elite class. Going out there, strutting their stuff, jumping on balls, exfoliating absurdities. We hate them. We love them. They are sort of enigmas, committing crimes at will, knowing that they are different. That they are [...]

harper is stranger than fiction

January 19, 2010

Darrel Harper is in a weird mood these days. It’s almost as if he is aware of how much the world hates him, and he is out on a mission to piss the world off even more. Maybe that is exactly the case. We all are aware of how stupendously shitty his umpiring is these [...]

what happened at newlands today

January 4, 2010

South Africa vs England, 3rd Test, Day 2 I was initially witnessing the game from my sofa, but then switched to test match sofa, an internet radio station comprising of a  great bunch of Pommie Fans, and Jarrod Kimber. Seems like they are somehow affiliated to the Barmy Army. If that is not the case, [...]

IPL is Must for T20 Success – Vaughan

December 4, 2009

Michael Vaughan, the former England skipper thinks that if the poms are to have any chance of competing in the ICC World T20 in the West Indies next year, they should be allowed to play in the IPL. Before I say anything, here is what he had to say: “We should be making our players [...]

Tim Bresnan scores career best, lifts England hopes

October 2, 2009

Champions Trophy – Semi Final 1 Australia vs England How wronged can wronged be? I know I have the habit of jumping the gun a little bit. All right a lot. But most of the times I am true. The some other times I am wrong, I am really wrong. Lets take a look. I [...]

Pain! Pain! Pain!

July 26, 2009

“As an England cricketer the Ashes are the pinnacle of the game so I’m absolutely devastated to be missing the rest of this series" That is what Kevin Pietersen had to say after he ruled himself out of the current ashes series, presumably to prepare for the next IPL, or maybe to contemplate retirement while [...]

Cricket at Lords, boring to say the least…

July 16, 2009

Now this was not on my wishlist. England had come out of almost nowhere and drawn the first test at beer hungry wales. Monty and Anderson were heroes. The Poms were supposed to carry that momentum (the no 10 and no 11 batting success momentum, that is) to over here and thrash the nuts out [...]
