Topic: T-20 world cup 2026Posted: 12 Feb 2026 at 6:38am |

Yet another WC for white ball trash, but I have been watching because there is no other cricket on, England just scraped home against Nepal the other night, it was actually a cracker of a game, We got home by a paltry 4 runs in the end, Nepal played out of their skins.
West Indies beat us easily this morning, but it should be to big an issue, we have yet to play Scotland, & Italy..winning both of those games should see us through with the Windies. However if we lose one of them, say against Scotland then it could get ugly. Australia had a comical win over Ireland last night, Ireland just didn't show up with the bat, just awful, so many wickets fell in a short time it was parade of ducks and low scores to basic balls imo. The South Africa V Afghanistan game was incredible, it was tied 187 runs a piece after 20 overs so they played a super over, still it was tied, so they played another Super over, again it was close with SA finally winning that one, what a classic, first time in history I believe, two super overs to decide a T-20 world cup match. Australia play Zimbabwe tomorrow @ 4:30 pm. They seem to play the same amount of games every day and games are on at good times, they go 4:30pm, 8:30pm and the last game is 12:30pm for us here in Australia. Yes it's behind a pay wall but at least it's one of the cheapest in Amazon prime, around $17 a month from memory. |

No not really. In fact I'd have to say it was one of the worst ashes series I've ever seen, even the Melb test wasn't good cause again two days of rubbish. it wasn't the worst because we lost, but because as usual it's all over so quickly, all the test cricket is done and dusted by Jan 8th.. there was so much summer left over with nothing but Big Bash left to watch and hate that stuff. Aussie team rushing to kill each test off as fast as possible, robbing test cricket lovers of days and days of relaxing calming test cricket to watch. I love having it on the telly, all day, 5 days of it, a wicket falls you rush to the screen for the replay, an appeal, again you and other family members rush to the screen, making comments, "oh that's deffo out", that's fkn plumb as" ... "what the hell is wrong with the umpire he's nicked that for sure"" ?? .. you don't sit and watch it all, you listen to it like a radio in the house, the crowd noise fills your apt as you continue pottering around, wrestling the dog, listening intently as you tick off chores, or make lunch etc.. it hardly felt like that happened this summer, it was all gone in a blink. I went to the Sydney test and had a ball with the BA, sang some glorious songs, my voice was knackered by the end of the day, met some loverly peeps from the UK who were travelling around OZ going from test to test and sampling the food and beaches etc.. we swapped life stories, it was hot as hell, 36c this day. Watched Bethell score his ton, scored a bunch of merchandise, guzzled bottle after bottle of water,...but really the best part, the part that made me smile the most, was my daughter, how she absolutely enjoyed the sht out of the day, she is now a dead set test cricket lover for life, all the way home on the light rail she was asking me about all the shots names, bowling, stats every single aspect of the game. We had the ABC listen app/radio on the iPhone on so we could listen for the last half n hr of the days play as did others in the train cabin, we trundled home in the hot sweaty train cabin, it seemed everyone was interested in the days cricket. We played house cricket with the mini bats we bought at the game for weeks after, I swear it wouldn't have taken much to convince my daughter to join a cricket club and start playing, she was hooked biggly. |

Not going to read all that but from the size of text appears you're quite upset about the result!
![]() I did skim the name Bethell. I think you've found yourself a good player there

Here's a hint HG, maybe read the text before expressing an opinion on its contents.

Here's a hint HG, if you'd read fiddlers post you would realise that he wasn't really upset by the result. Also, have you just discovered PT and Browndog are born on the same day? You seem obsessed with this today.

You're a bit slow Afros. The joke is the wall of text & rambling was a deflection of how upset he is.

I'm referring to the original joke attempt but that could also be applied to your latest comment.

While he was the last to work it out, he has gotten narky since his suspension for calling people racists adding 2 and 2 and getting 5 in determining I had something to do with his booting.

Wrong and wrong. 1) I was suspended because I said something was divisional and this got mistaken as racist. There was clearly nothing racist with what the user said it was just divisional. 2) I said you logged in a couple days AFTER my suspension. How would that mean you had something to do with my suspension. |

To assist Gay and Horlicks in Moderator duties?
To offer comment in the moderators section of the forum? Its been common knowledge PT and Browndog are one and the same for over a decade, your self claimed gotcha moment is anything but. You do seem to have a strange obsession with trying to catch people out of late, two examples in this thread alone.

Too funny Afros.
Newsflash I knew PT & Browndog were 1 and the same yonks ago. Only a query when Browndog logs in a couple days after other Mods issue a suspension. Snooping me thinks.
