DangerMark Posted January 5 Posted January 5 I recommend watching the BBC version of Jamie Smith's wicket, where they're basically saying that only a wanker of the first water would get out to Marnus Labuschagne's medium short theory. Of course, since the theory was that any non-Root batter playing for England was a wanker, it worked. 1

I've watched cricket for 30 years and THAT Jamie Smith dismissal is one of the worst I've easily ever seen. Fucking terrible. Not far behind is Will Jacks wicket today. Alex Hartley, a great new addition to TMS was on commentary when both happened. She doesn't pull her punches. Edited January 7 by The Natural
DangerMark Posted January 7 Posted January 7 I once heard Alex Hartley drop this doozy: "New Zealand have been so poor in this series and I'm getting sick of watching them." 1
