TMS is such an ECB mouthpiece was listening the other day to Steven Finn and some Aussie retard talk complete bullshit about the scheduling. They were mocking people who had a problem with the seasons scheduling, such as starting a white ball series in the second half of September, and that were blaming the hundred; they were just “there’s no problem playing up until October, these people moaning are idiots there’s always been games in September” meanwhile the One day Cup final has been washed out and half the country has had a months worth of rain over the weekend and last year two of the three games in late September were abandoned. Don’t pretend there’s no difference between the first week of sept and the last ffs it’s already autumn.

I am, but I think it's the lad in Shropshire who's been posting about it more often
That place looks very comfy but even if I could jiggle the finances and stretch to £400k affordability (which I might just about be able to do), the renovation costs might be a little higher than I'm willing to spend
Energy bills and council tax might be quite high too (although at least I'd keep the single person discount for the latter)

For me, it will always be tests. But all 3 formats can coexist. The important part is the matches always having context and the product itself being attractive to crowds and tv. IPL has done this really well. WTC i think can be improved a lot

Bouldering and test cricket share similarities in their demand for endurance, strategy, skill mastery, and patience. Bouldering requires climbers to navigate complex routes with precise movements and strategic planning, similar to how cricketers strategize over long innings. Both activities reward patience and persistence in overcoming challenges.

In contrast, T20 diverges significantly. It emphasizes quick, high-scoring gameplay and entertainment value over endurance and strategic depth. T20 often relies on explosive moments and luck rather than the meticulous skill development and prolonged strategic battles seen in bouldering and test cricket. Success in T20 can hinge on rapid, decisive actions rather than the sustained effort and comprehensive skill sets required in the other two activities. Therefore, while bouldering and test cricket share a methodical approach and skill-intensive nature, T20 stands apart with its fast-paced, luck-driven dynamics aimed at providing instant gratification to audiences with ever-dwindling attention spans.

>England women's captain Knight reprimanded over 'blackface' photo

>England women's cricket captain Heather Knight (33) has been reprimanded and given a suspended £1,000 fine after a historical photograph of her in "blackface" emerged on social media.

>Knight, set to lead England at next month's Women's T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates, said she was "truly sorry" for conduct that was deemed "racist and discriminatory" by Cricket Discipline Commission adjudicator Tim O'Gorman.

>However, O'Gorman accepted there was no racist or discriminatory intent by Knight, who was 21 when the image was taken at a sports-themed fancy dress party in 2012.

>Knight, whose fine has been suspended for two years, said in a statement: "I'm truly sorry for the mistake I made in 2012. It was wrong and I have long regretted it.

>"Back then, I simply was not as educated as to the implications and consequences of my actions as I have become since. There was no ill-intent meant.

>"Whilst I can't change the past, I am passionate and committed to using my platform to promote inclusivity across the game, ensuring under-represented groups are afforded the same opportunities and fulfilment within the game as I have."

>The picture of Knight in blackface was posted to the Facebook account of another person.

>Knight promptly accepted the charges brought last month, showed remorse and apologised for her conduct.

>Her punishment also takes into account the fact she did not have any education about the issues involved in posing for such a photo at the time and the work she undertakes to promote diversity and inclusion.

>O'Gorman's judgement said: "At a 'sports stars' themed party in 2012, Ms Knight appeared in a photo in fancy dress with blackface. This, I find, was racist and discriminatory conduct.

>"(But) I find and accept that there was no racist or discriminatory intent in the blackface itself.
>>
>>144645268
>"It is accepted that Ms Knight did not herself post the photograph on any social media platform, has no power to delete the photo and has no power to control how it has been posted (or might be posted in future).

>"I consider that it is inappropriate and unnecessary to require a further apology."

>Knight's teammate Danni Wyatt-Hodge was reprimanded two years ago for charges relating to blackface from an Instagram post in 2013.

>England and Wales Cricket Board chief executive Richard Gould said: "Heather recognises this was a serious error of judgement which took place more than 10 years ago and has rightly apologised.

>"As a public figure and leader, Heather has worked tirelessly to foster a more inclusive and equitable future for cricket."

Root was just not selected, rather than not being available, right? Guy averages 47.6 in ODIs and is obviously the most talented batsman.

All part of the game. As an aussie your nation's security is fully under the thumb of the US so you can ride easy, just send a few thousand retards to blow some mudshits up whenever they ask you to join them and pay through the nose for their military goods

If Zachy was taller (over 5 foot), would he have more success climbing? Or is his height not the issue?

the problem is he's top heavy his massive forehead is very weighty and it means his weight isn't distributed evenly in his body

The boundary rope and its consequences have been a triumph for the human race
>>
Cricket should not be played in stadiums or with some sort of rope caging the players, if I want to absolutely wallop one and run 15 runs I should be allowed to, make the fielders actually work
>>
>>144658795
you've piqued my interest
how would you solve the problem of the potentially poor viewing experience for the in-person spectators?
>>
>>144658809
Just get the crowd to move out of the way of the incoming ball like they do in golf
>>
>>144658809
In person spectators are yo be abolished and replaced with SFH (spectate from home)
>>
>>144658809
a combination of the two above, if sad sacks wish to stand in the playing field in the rain (yes they play in the rain only pussies hide inside) they can, however drone cams will provide multiple angle viewing for those sat at home or unfortunate enough to live in a country where Cricket matches are not taking place
>>
>>144658795
instead of a boundary you have a crop of some sort to make finding the ball harder, each ground can choose what to grow. Sunflowers maybe? perhaps some brambles if they're feeling tough. as a bonus it weeds out the fat-cunt batter phenotype.

I present: the ultimate cricket ground.

Just outside the 30m circle we would have a ring of golf-style sand bunker. This would prevent boring batsmen from scoring significant runs whilst playing the ball along the deck.

Beyond that, we would have sporadic pot bunkers, both preventing certain shots from gaining maximum value and adding obstacles for fielding players.

Further out we would maintain a strong North American decidious forest. It would be up to the home side to decide whether the predatory wildlife that occupies these woods is kept under control (or even boosted if one so wishes).
>>
>>144658937
there just needs to be more boundaries
inner boundaries as it were, for 1, 2 and 3 runs.
No one wants to wait and watch for batspersons to actually run.

What helps cricket thrive? Money. How do you get more money? Entertain. How do you entertain? Boundaries. Less overs. Fireworks. Sirens. Commentators yelling instead of talking.

Let's get it done.
>>
god I fucking love money
>>
>>144659007
Amply-bosomed cheerleaders?
>>
The field is marked with trapezoidal "Max" zones, one at each end of the field, beginning 60 metres from the striker's wicket, where the trapezoid is 40 metres wide, and extending to the boundary, where the trapezoid is 50 metres wide. Any ball hit into the Max zone doubles the number of runs scored from that ball, whether by running between the wickets, or a boundary four or six. Fielders may not be in the Max zone as the ball is bowled. Only the Max zone in front of the striker is valid for all these rules.

Always bloody FUMING when these sorts of things get announced, because it just rewards the cunts who can't save money while inflating property prices further

Deano is happy to take on a high-interest 50-year mortgage if it means he can keep up with the Joneses, while savingschads are btfo because deano can now compete for the same houses as them despite having no savings, causing prices to rise

Reminder that India, that is Bharat, had such a massive trade surplus with proto-a*glo shitters (romans and greeks) that these proto-a*glo shitters started reducing the gold and silver content of their previously pure coins - and so being jew'd came into being.

>Speaking on the Cricket Et Al podcast, the 76-year-old said the prized possession had mysteriously disappeared from storage, but didn’t go as far as saying it had been stolen.
>Chappell said he put his baggy green in storage ten years ago but realised it wasn’t there when he cleared it out to move to Adelaide.

>In China “wearing a green hat” (戴绿帽子 or dài lǜ mào zǐ) is an expression that Chinese use when a woman cheats on her husband or boyfriend because the phrase sounds similar to the word for cuckold. This apparently dates back to the Yuan dynasty when the relatives of prostitutes were forced to wear green hats.

The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out.
The ones that go in are lean and thin.
The ones that come out are fat and stout.
Your eyes fall in and your teeth fall out.
Your brains come tumbling down your snout.
Be merry, my friends, be merry.

In a fairly data / code monkey heavy role, so obviously there's a lot of troons (clear links between autism and code monkeying and thinking you're a woman when really you're just a poof)

Absolutely intrigued by the look that one of them has gone for, """she""" looks just like a blokey version of this lady (Brian Potter's love interest from Phoenix Nights)
