Has his wife stayed with him ?


He seems to be a contradictory turd IMO.....

No wife beater should be employed by the BBC. PEROID.

Or any public broadcaster for that matter. But if you take it at face value, he does sometimes add some entertainment value.

I remember during the England-Ireland match while driving home, Ireland need 50-odd off ~7 overs and KOB was taking them apart, he said something like "it's simple now isn't it? His granny could make that".

9.6


Ashwin to Watson, OUT, the man from Chennai has struck, Watson went for the slog sweep, this one was slower through the air, tossed up, and turned in to strike the off stump, even as Watson missed it completely, did not get too far across to pick it from outside off, played a bit early too


SR Watson b Ashwin 25 (38b 5x4 0x6) SR: 65.78

First wicket

Geez what a bunch of sissies these poms are. They're always getting depressed and emo. Who was the one who retired because of something similar? Was it Vaughn?

Well, I'd also be depressed if I had to play for such a cr@p side.....

Trescothick....

and Thorpe as well.

Like I said, India has no bite like the Pakis do...
The Indians dont seem to be very aggressive.

They don't have many attacking bowling options. We all knew that man.

 

[Ronjay]

Moral of the story, don't ever play for England. You begin fine but after a few years you end up with all kinds of psychological issues.

 

[Creag]

If the Aussies play well they will beat India.
I want Aus to beat India so the Pakis dont have to.

Okay :wtf:

How aggressive do you expect a spin bowler to be? Will leave it up to Sehwag and Sachin to get aggressive with their batting.... lolz...

 

[sand_man]

Yep Bumble is always interesting and funny. Boycott ain't too bad as a commentator either, even though he moered his wife.

What does Boycott say to his wife with 2 black eyes? Nothing, he's already told her twice...

That's wrong, but funny

 

[Creag]

5 bowling options inside the first 16 overs. Wringing the changes like some of the 20/20 captains do.

Bumble needs to spend time at Westville prison.

Why? did David Lloyd beat his wife too?

MS has too.

Cant let the Aussies settle or else they will target a specific bowler.

 

[SinghDude]

Why? did David Lloyd beat his wife too?

No.

He thinks England can beat anybody.

 

[Creag]

Looks like they have already taken Munaf out. I think they'll target at least one other to upset Dhoni's options.

....and it looks like Yuvraj might be it. Expect another bowling change.

Yuvraj seems to have a golden arm ATM.

Strange that MS hasn't tried Sewhag or Sachin as bowling options in this WC
