eddiemunster Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Orange walk blocking the only Road through the village when a massive clap of thunder heralds an absolute drenching for them. That'll teach them. Shame it isn't raining broken lightbulbs, skittery dugshite and AIDS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernJambo Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Cheers. Well worth a tenner I would think Not at all, happy to help. At 1/5 that's pointless. Could do worse than looking at AB de Villiers for most SA runs. A tasty 13/2 on skybet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 (edited) Namibia arrived in Scotland this week for a 4 day ICC intercontinental cup tie in Ayr They needn't have bothered. The rain was so bad that Scotland only started their first innings on day 4. For what it's worth Namibia declared on 403/7 and Scotland finished in 224/2 Henry Muncy completed his 100 not out with the last ball of the game Mid table mediocrity beckons for Scotland Our Irish friends may fall out with each other around this time of year but they should be getting behind their team who are battling it out with Afghanistan at the top of the table Edited June 12, 2017 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 Thanks to the rain We're now into day two of Scotland's One Day Game against Namibia in Edinburgh. Namibia are chasing 269 in 43 overs after Richie Berrington got 110 in Scotlands rain shortened innings Namibia are currently 26/0 after 5.1 Overs A win here would pretty much secure a top 4 slot with automatic entry to the World Cup qualifiers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted June 12, 2017 Share Posted June 12, 2017 (edited) Namibia are 56/4 If the weather is favourable then we should be home and dry figuratively as well as literally Edited June 12, 2017 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The conditions affect the bounce, the slipperiness of the ball etc... But the main difference with other sports is that It will disadvantage the batting team more than their opponents. In Football, Rugby,Hockey etc. a downpour would affect both teams equally and you can ask them to just get on with it Of course in recreational amateur cricket people aren't quite as fussy and might choose to play on through mild drizzle. And some people are even less fussy than that Edited June 12, 2017 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sloop John B Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Scotland bounce back from a horrible defeat to Namibia on Tuesday to get their first official win against a test playing side as they beat Zimbabwe by 26 runs via D/L at the Grange. Their first win in 24 attempts against Full Member sides. They play again on the Saturday if P&B's cricket community have a free Saturday in Edinburgh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have they a Grand Lodge? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
