Cow Corner
A part of the field that is adjacent to a section of the crowd deemed too visually tragic to be aired on commercial networks. Interestingly this section of spectator seating is also a hideaway for any young female fans who do...

Jasprit Bumrah is Da Shit
You didn’t need to see the 1st game in the current ODI series between England and India to to agree with me, but it does add considerable weight to my argument. I would also like to not the singular language in this title. I’m not suggesting he’s one of the shits, but rather THE shit. You name me a better, more exciting and consistently wicket taking bowler across all formats and I will laugh in your face as if it were Richard Pryor performing some of his classic standup in a small New York club.

Australia Subpar in the Subcontinent
After the 1st test of this 2 match series, there was hope that Australia had revitalised it’s approach and ability to battle subcontinent conditions, and the inevitably skilful teams that come along with them.

Head in a Spin as Aussies Smite Sri Lanka
I should make it clear upfront that I am taking legal action against the Australian Test Cricket team for finishing a game that I could have spent another 2 and half days watching. Not to mention my loss of income from coverage of the rest of the game. I mean you can only imagine how much money this site turns over in a day. Actually you can stop imagining that. Regardless, what a wild ride those two and a half days of cricket played were. Australia literally smoked Sri Lanka with their own pipe (taking me back to my university days). The big worry coming into this series was around how well the Australian’s could deal with spin on turning pitches. As it turns out the sandal was truly on the host’s foot.
