Fit but whether he is match fit is the vexed question.

Re: Cricket
Malinga the Slinger is a pretty disgusting character, he spits out more than a full team of footballers, it's virtually every ball.

A weird action but legal, his arm is quite straight, low but straight, not like Murali's
Nearly an upset at the end, quite exciting finish.

Re: Cricket
Great start by England, and no Dale Steyn.
Broad & Finn going at 7 an over not so good.

Re: Cricket
Great start but our bowling in these last 10 to 15 overs has been nothing short of shambolic.

Re: Cricket
I really don't think theres a better bowler around than Jimmy Anderson at the moment. He finished with 2-14 off 8 overs today. Hes consistently good in all forms of cricket, a joy to watch bowl at the moment.

Well lads its time to get out your cricket gear to replace this useless lot.

And they are at it again, today Lancashire bowled out Div 2 leaders Northants for 62. In fact they have taken their last 23 first class wickets for just 87 runs.  Local Saddleworth lad Kyle Hogg took 7 wickets today.

Yes punter certainly was a great player and a most dogged character as well.
