Why does W H Smith at Waterloo station keep The Wisden Cricketer on the top shelf with all the other magazines you'd expect to see there?Why did Chris Gayle need a runner in the last test for a broken thumb?
Why do they measure the speed of a cricket ball in miles per hour when it will never go for a mile or for an hour ? What we need is a measure based on how deep it would go into a hedge at that speed or how many fingers it would break.
I thought Gayle was batting with a runner even before he had his thumb broken by Nel, this was why he had come in down the order instead of opening.
ReplyDeleteI can corroborate what WInks says.
ReplyDeleteAn excuse to peruse the top shelf in WH SMiths in Waterloo without looking *too* shifty, me thinks.
