Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

SeamUp

International Coach
Would love to see him make the thousand.
Another 2 County seasons at least in him so you would think he will. :) Goes past Rice (930) and then only Donald and Procter ahead of him on the overall list.

We just don't play enough test cricket so don't even think he is in the reckoning for 2nd spinner anymore if we went to the sub.

Leading 10 SA spinners by FC wickets

1. Claude Henderson 905 (273)
2. Simon Harmer 902 (205)
3. Hugh Tayfield 864 (187)
4. Imran Tahir 784 (194)
5. Keshav Maharaj 586 (156)
6. Nicky Boje 585 (216)
7. Shaun von Berg 480 (137)
8. Atholl McKinnon 470 (111)
9. Clive Eksteen 468 (142)
10. Aubrey Faulkner 449 (118)

5 SLA, 2 ROS, 2 RLS, 1 SLC

Simon Harmer (902 FC wickets) needs 4 more wickets to go past Claude Henderson (905) to be the South African spinner with the most FC wickets.
Didn't realise there was anyone else in world cricket anywhere near 1000 FC wickets. Thought Jimmy would be the last to do it

Imagine he can do it as he'll no doubt have a few more cracking seasons at Essex.

Only other one I can find past 900 is Malinda Pushpakumara Profile - Cricket Player Sri Lanka | Stats, Records, Video (espncricinfo.com)

International Coach
After budgetary constraints forced them to postpone a home series vs Australia, it's looking like Cricket Ireland will either have to cancel the home test against Zimbabwe or the white-ball series vs South Africa.

Decision likely to be made this week.
What did they end up doing?

Speaking of pointless gestures, Mark Taylor knocked back the opportunity to beat Bradman’s highest test score

Hayden said **** that
