Lol you’re all idiots

Did you expect different on a cricket forum?

Lol you’re all idiots

Fair comment. I'm an idiot for trying to debate with bigger idiots.

 

[Jarquis]

Is ***** trolling or just being deliberately obtuse?

Aren’t we all

 

[honestbharani]

Relax L&L. Its ok to differ on our opinions on one issue.

if i didn't want to concede four runs i would simply get to the ball fast enough that i don't have to risk toe dragging the boundary tbqh

We are talking about running towards a cricket ball not a tub of ice cream in your fridge

Right but you're not really addressing the point at all. Broad is not right in his view of Mankading, is that too difficult to understand?

And sorry but humour doesn't translate well in text, especially tongue in cheek British humour that more often than not is neither tongue in cheek nor humorous. I don't think it's too much to call it out as dumb.

Well humour is subjective, alas just because you are not amused by something doesn't automatically make it dumb. Quite frankly this is xenophobic, bigoted bull**** and you should **** off away from this forum with your drivel

There's a few CW members here who would fail any basic comprehension test I used to set as a teacher.

because of your teaching?

Dismissing an English test opener doesn’t require any skill as well but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be given out.

Does broad agree

It was one of the responses to his tweet, lol.

You approving of dumb opinions doesn't make it any less dumber. And it's a bit rich preaching about drivel with this post.

Self-fulfilling logic in sentence one. I know you are but what am I in sentence 2. Truly and utterly odious.

go and **** yourself

It's about time we had another race war.

Paging @Gnske

 

[GIMH]

No race war, it's quite clear. Dan, Spark or Teja must ban this imbecile or else resign.

Anyway, leaving group hugs to one side for a moment - I never saw any reason for the batsman crossing law and wondered how it originated. But having said that, it is a long standing law and not one that desperately needed changing.

It's the internet

If the words have punctuation it means I copied it from somewhere else

I wonder the same. A bit of tinkering for not a lot of benefit. As it stands, at the death of a T20/ODI, we may now have a situation where it doesn't make sense for a tail ender to tee off into the deep, knowing that he potentially isn't getting the other guy on strike...he might be better pushing a single. Which takes a bit away from the theatre. I like it as it stands, that the risk/reward is higher of trying to clear the boundary.
