Day 1
These guys must have spend quite a bit of time at school to learn how to write their names.
Full name Uda Walawwe Mahim Bandaralage Chanaka Asanga Welegedara
Herath Mudiyanselage Rangana Keerthi Bandara Herath
Narangoda Liyanaarachchilage Thisara Chirantha Perera
But not nearly as much time as the Zimbabweans to count out enough money for a bread.
Zimbabweans can count the furtherest in this world.
Philander out, I didn’t hear the reason, but De Lange in, in his place. This is where he needs to show his metal. I think that bowling spot is going to be a tussle between him and Morkel, and if the last match is anything to go by, De Lange is in with a real chance
Hellllooooooooooooooooo Rugby-Talkers!
…talking cricket….
Hope you had a good Christmas Sunday!
Morning GBS, had a great day, and trust you did too! I could do with you living next door to me right now – I have a computer game I bought my son for Xmas, and boy am I struggling with it!
First one De Lange, well done boyo, may there be many more young man!!!
Ahhh, wickettttttt by De Lange… his first ever Test wicket.
Sri Lanka 35 / 1 after 9 overs.
5 @ Just For Kicks:
Hahaha
Good Morning, Apples!
Apples problems??
No. 2 for De Lange – the boys is on form. Thats the No.1 batsman back in the hut
Wickettttttt No 2, by De Lange… and the dangerous Sangakkara departs for a DUCK!!
9 @ Just For Kicks:
Apples, I made YOU Author of the Article, which effectively means any one of you, me or SuperBul can Edit and Control the Article during the next 5 days….
I took the snow and the Christmas light down… you want them back?
11@ grootblousmile:ok, no problem
Had a great Christmas Day yesterday…
Tahir hit for an easy 6…. eishhh
A bit early for a spinner to be effective against guys that are so used to spin in the Sub-Continent.
Looks like the weather is great in Deben, by the sea…
Goeie more, good morning, sawubona, ciao, guten morgen, konichiwa, Waaazup dudes.
17 @ biltongbek:
Hello biltonge!
Trust you and yours are fine?
Wicket??
Stumping?
Hi GBS, had a nice rustige christmas day, lots of swimming and a good South African braai.
Could that be another, gone upstairs for a stumping on Jayawardene
Think he’s safe.. not out
20 @ biltongbek:
Was a good weather day yesterday… today totally miffy weather here in Gautengeleng.
As long as it doesn’t rain the whole day, it is OK.
Do you guys think de Lange will also get a 5 wicket haul on his debut?
24 @ biltongbek:
De Lange’s looked good so far, glad Gazza is not shy to try some new blood for the Proteas.
2 Wickets for 5 runs, in 4 overs…. on debut!
Tahir not good at the moment, getting his lenght all wrong… getting his line far off the mark.
They’re scoring easily and with comfort from his bowling.
A big hello to you all from England this morning, hope you and yours had a wonderful day yesterday.
Whilst you bask in the sunshine I am going to get ‘lycrad’ up and get out on my bike. Boxing day excercise to burn off a few calories and continue with my Argus training schedule, I have to be fit for March again.
Catch you later I hope.
@ grootblousmile:
Wicket in the last over before lunch Dilshan bowled Tahir, caught Morkel for 47. SL 84/3
Tahir gets a wicket… from an aweful full toss ball by him… Dilshan skies it and he’s caught near the rope.
Sri Lanka 84 / 3
@ grootblousmile:
@ 12 – It is tradition to keep the decorations up until ‘Twelfth Night’ 6th Jan….!!
So lets have the lights, but perhaps skip the snowflakes! I keep thinking they are dust on my screen! lol
Oh, btw, congrautlations on the ‘broadcast’ a smile works wonders!
