    **Official** Pakistan and Sri Lanka in UAE

    ''80.3 Welegedara to Taufeeq Umar, no run, Huge appeal for lbw as he shoulders arms but the ball comes in. Tony Hill is having a shocker of a match. This hits him on the knee roll, deep n the crease. Would have hit the stumps. Taufeeq fortunate'' this is one awful test match, especially with...

    *Official* Champions League Twenty20 2011

    Dharmasena in not giving out clear LBW shocker, the standards of umpires in the CLT20 is shocking, Hussey given out yesterday LBW to a ball shown to be going over by about 6+ inches, it's pity Mr.Dar can't be everywhere at once...

    Intercontinental Cup and Intercontinental Shield

    Quite a short game in the end, an innings victory for Ireland, and to think Ed Joyce, Porterfield, Niall O'B, Rankin etc weren't even in the squad, a lot of the players were second string players, I hope the idea of two tier test cricket happens sooner rather than later, I think a full strength...

    2015 World Cup: 10 teams and no associates

    Looking at it again, is it the top 6 associates play in a qualifier with 1/2 from Division two and then say for example Ireland and Afghanistan qualify from the 8 teams, then the other 6 who didn't qualify go into another league with 3/4 from Division two and battle it out for the last two spots?...

    *Official* T20 and ODI matches

    I don't see how it's out, no hot spot which is what is in the game to be used, no deviation when it went past no real sound at all if any, these are the tools to be used by Erasmus, and he went by his ''instinct'' which in this case I think he's very much wrong, spoiled what could have been a...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    I don't know much about that era of Irish football but that would have been funny to see Keegan playing for Ireland, generally the better players were born here, like that Roy Keane t**t :laugh: :@...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    Well I only know that one of his grandparents was born here and that entitles him to apply for an Irish passport and that would allow him to play for Ireland, I don't really know much else about this, I'll just wait and see if anything happens...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    To be fair, Ireland playing footie players in our team who wouldn't have made the English team is different to Eoin Morgan, who would get into this Irish team quite easily, your point is noted though :) :cool:...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    It isn't?, just Murtagh hasn't played for England at any level afaik, and he has Irish family so could claim an Irish passport to play for us, which he has discussed with Ed Joyce and Cricket Ireland, http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/cricket/9502158.stm ...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    Well I meant if the ECB want to pick Irish players then they could help financially as the big brother to help Ireland, of course they don't have to, just an idea when Ireland are missing our on Morgan then something could be done by ECB or ICC to help Ireland in return, why should we lose out...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    Sadly we need Rankin, I do think if you look at his figures he is better in the long formats of the game and not so much in ODI's and T20's, I'll try not to keep going on and on but I think if we could have had a team of, Joyce, Stirling, Porterfield, N'Ob, Marshall, Cusack, K'Ob, Murtagh...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    Well one thing the ECB could do, if they do pick our top players then maybe help financially with for example, the Hamish Marshall case, Ireland news: Hamish Marshall's international future in jeopardy | Ireland Cricket News | ESPN Cricinfo I feel if we could add in Marshall and Murtagh to...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    True, perhaps I should have took a bit more time to relax before posting :), will do in future after Ireland games, someone might have said it here or on Cricinfo but teams playing England should be encouraged to play Ireland in a 2/3/4/5 ODI series after their tour or 2/3 ODI's and one four...

    ***Official*** Ireland v England at Dublin

    Maybe next time if we could make it a T20 game then 3 ODI's, the sad thing for Irish Cricket and Irish fans, our next game against a Test team isn't anytime soon, according to the fixtures we don't have any games against full members, and the fixture list goes to October of next year, :laugh:...
